OT The Cubs are in the World Series

[PolarBear]

Wow, I didn't think anyone could hate the Cubs or Cubs fans. That's like hating puppies because they pee on your rug.

And yes, I'm a Cubs fan.

I have no rooting interest in either team, I'm just happy for my long suffering Cub fan friends who have put up with decades of disappointment. (Plus my wife is a Cub fan so as they say, happy wife, happy life).

But also rooting for my long suffering Indians fans who have put up with decades of disappointment

Think about this. When the Cubs last appeared in the World Series, MLB was still segregated. The lead-off hitter for the Cubs is Dexter Fowler, an african-american.

The only comfort I find in this is that the Sox won a title first, and I took my boys to their first ball game at 35th and Shields

Best of luck to both teams.

Did MLB set the 7:08 (1908) start time on purpose?

Or hating goats because they smell?

There is something enigmatic about their losing streak and I hope it continues so that the tradition stays alive. Boston fans have only gotten (somehow) even more annoying than they were before.
