CHICAGO%20CUBS%20PLAYOFF%20FEVER%20BASEBALL72.jpgThis email arrived in the inbox via StubHub ticket pimps at about 1:30 p.m. today:

Where do you want to sit?

Hey Tom,

Be there alongside your Chicago Cubs as they chase baseball immortality. Go to StubHub, where you'll find a fantastic selection of tickets to every playoff game - so you experience the championship chase live and in person. Check it out. Go to StubHub and get the seats you want today.

At 4:41 p.m. -- more than three hours later -- came this followup:

Hi Tom,

Earlier today, an email promoting Chicago Cubs postseason tickets was sent to you. This, unfortunately, was a mistake. We regret the error and apologize for any inconvenience or confusion this may have caused.

Sincerely,
The StubHub Team

The tagline to that message:

Have tickets you can't use?
Sell them on StubHub.com. We make it EASY with no listing fees, express shipping and access to millions of eager fans. You just set your price. Leave shipment tracking and customer service to us.

As a matter of fact, I have some Cubs' playoff tickets I've been trying to unload...

Maybe I should go to this StubHub link (linked here)
Or here (at this link)

UPDATE
