This is a simple game.

150 characters?
No prob – I’m on Twitter all the time now and I can…what’s that?…150 words?! Aw man, too much work. I gotta life y’know.
I've committed to tweeting about the Cubs for the rest of the season. (Does that sound as ridiculous as I think it does?) Anyway, if you're on Twitter, you can follow me here.
