Thanks for noth

The Indianapolis Star's Matthew Tully takes a break from politics and lists 10 good things about the Colts' dismal season so far, including:

As a lifelong Cubs fan, I can assure you that the humility that comes with following a bad team builds character. Think about it: A Central Indiana child who was born 10 years ago this January has never known a losing hometown football team. They've developed ridiculously high expectations. This season, no matter how painful it is, will make our kids stronger.

Yeah, well, I watched the Cubs, too. And I was a Bears fan before the glorious and never repeated 1985 season. I also suffered with a friend who was a fan of the Lions even during their 0-16 season.  I have enough damn character, thank you.

And humility, highly overrated. The people who are humble usually have good reason to be.
