What, me worry?

I should have known.

Despite three disheartening losses to the Tampa Bay Rays last week -- becoming the last team in the majors to lose three games in a row -- the Cubs came home and took care of business, just like I thought they would.

I was a bit worried, granted, but after throttling the White Sux 4-3, 11-7 and 7-1, we all know who the real baseball team is in Chicago (though I may be singing another tune after the Cubs visit Comiskey (I refuse to call it U.S. Cellular Field) Park next weekend. But for now, Ozzie Guillen and his boys can walk back to the South Side with their tails tucked between their legs.

Aramis Ramirez was a monster, winning the first game with two homers, including a walk-off shot in the ninth, hitting a three-run homer in the Cubs' 9-run fourth inning in Game 2 (my boy Jim Edmonds hit two HRs in that inning), and then hitting another solo shot to back Ryan Dempster last night.

Dempster has won nine in a row at Wrigley -- hard to believe he's the ace now with Carlos Zambrano on the DL. But he's worked his butt off and it's paid big dividends. Overall, the Cubs have won 14 consecutive games at Wrigley, which hasn't happened in more than 70 years. And the Cubs still have the best record in baseball.

Remember all this Cubs fans. This is a special season. One that comes along about every 100 years.
