These are the saddest of possible words:
"to finish first if your the cubs no chance."
losers these cubs, and full of harsh words,
moises and sammy, no chance!
Ruthlessly picking on steve stones gonfalon bubble,
Making an error into a double-
Words that are heavy with nothing but trouble:
"to win a world series no chance"

since the last Cubs championship. My guess is that there is no person alive today who has lucid memories of them actually winning it all. To give you an idea of just how long ago that was there wasn't even an income tax yet in the United States.

It would be bad if the Cubs, White Sox, or Red Sox ever win a series. With all the fans praying "God, please let me live long enough to see the [Cubs/Sox] win", half the population of [Chicago/Boston] could expire.

The Cubs dominated the league in the beginning. They are just taking a well deserved break.

Anson, Kelly, Corcoran, Pfeffer, Flint, Williamson, Clarkson, Burns, etal.
