This Cubs Fan Is Ready


You know what? I’m rooting for Henneman.

Before watching this video, know some things:

1) Justin Kaufmann is, indeed, a real-life news reporter for WBEZ, the NPR affiliate in Chicago.

2) His beat seems to be all things Chicago, with an emphasis on snark.

3) There is no way to confirm if this Henneman figure is real, and whether or not she actually consumed enough adult sodas to put down an adult horse before the making of this video.

4) We are left hanging as to the eventual conclusion of the interaction. My guess is that an eternal life of domestic bliss ensues.

5) Harry Caray is up there, yeah.

6) It may be strange that Carson Cistulli calls his sister attractive, but once you factor genetic factors in, he’s actually calling himself attractive. Vanity!

7) Lists are fun! Maybe if we make it to ten we can post this on Bleacher Report as “Top Ten Pieces of Mindless Drivel That Occurred to Me While Watching a Crazy Youtube Video.”

8) Was that mean? Maybe it was. I take it back.

9) Watch the video now. It’s pretty funny. The language is SFW, but the content may not be depending on your work environment. Mine (pajamas on the couch) didn’t seem to mind.

10) Made it!

Read him here, writing about the A's or Giants at The Athletic, or about beer at October. Follow him on Twitter @enosarris if you can handle the sandwiches and inanity.
