Chicago Cubs Offer Pres. Obama ‘Midnight Pardon’ for White Sox Fandom

EPSTEIN: “Though you may have certain allegiances to another team, to another side of town, but we know you are very proud of Chicago.  And we know your better, wiser half, the First Lady, has been a lifelong and very loyal Cubs fan which we appreciate very much. And of course, we have great faith in your intelligence, your common sense, your pragmatism, your ability to recognize a good thing when you see one. So, Mr. President, with only few days remaining in your tremendous presidency we have taken the liberty here today of offering you a midnight pardon for all your indiscretions as a baseball fan. And so, we welcome you with open arms today, into the Cubs family.”
