Actually, the Cubs have nearly gone a century without ruling once. In fact, they've only had back to back winning seasons one time in the past 35 years. In that same span, they've only managed 10 .500 plus seasons.
On top of that, they COMPLETELY rip off their fans by selling most of their non-season tickets to a scalping agency - THAT THEY OWN!
Their ballpark, after getting over the novelty of the ivy and the "history", is really just a rat infested, run down park with no parking, bad food and bad sightlines. But, because it's in the middle of tavern town, they are now drawing well. But, something that Cub fans seem to continentally forget is that was not always the case. Before the rejuvenation of the area around the park, the Cubs didn't draw flies. Just ask Lee Elia!
For those of you not familiar, a simple google search for the "Lee Elia speech" (former Cub manager), is always a fun read.
Now, contrast that misery with the While Sox...
- Current World Series Champs
- 2nd best record in the VASTLY superior AL
- 19 winning seasons in the past 35 years
- one of the top 3 winningist teams in the past decade
- Highly rated food
- Outstanding sightlines
- Nobody believes in curses
God it's easy being a Sox fan
