[NU Sports] Professional Baseball references

[Roy S. Lamberton]

Steve Goodman also has a line in one of his song that goes something like...

'When the Cubs win the World Series, then I'll come back to you."

I wonder if we could change the words to the Lincoln Park Pirates to be the
Seton Hall Pirates....

"Way, Hey, throw them away...the Seton Hall Pirates are we."

Go Cats
