Looking to reassure critics who have assailed him for being tardy at least, and at best, neglecting his job, Other Shoe today announced that he is not past his prime, and will in fact be dropping next week.
"I know a lot of people have been on my case now that the Cubs are in the playoffs, but don't worry you guys, I'm still gonna drop like I always do. Then we can put this whole thing to bed, and watch a World Series with the Yankees or Red Sox vs. NL Patsy just like you've come to expect."
The news came just as Cubs fans recovered from their drunken night of celebrating the team's first Division Championship in four years. Said Jeffrey Wilson of Oak Park, "I'll admit. Something just didn't seem right seeing the Cubs covered in champagne. I've seen this kinda thing before in '84, '89, '95, '98, '01, '03 and '04 was wondering what happened to the Other Shoe and if he was ever going to drop. Today's news reassures me that the Cubs will eventually tank it, and I won't have to get rid of that "Wait till next year" t-shirt I bought. Cause I mean, that cost like 20 bucks, dude."
Other Shoe declined to give any details of exactly when he would drop, preferring instead to leave the element of suspense. "I'm a showman," said the piece of footwear through fresh new laces, "You'll just have to stay tuned, wait, and see." Shoe did state that fans can expect to see him as soon as next weekend. Right around Game 4 or 5 of the NLDS.
