I think the Red Sox were the AL version of the Cubs.

Because Ron Santo was an average player.

Because none of them realize that Andre Dawson was by far the best player in the history of the franchise.

[/ QUOTE ]

haha, these are funny

[/ QUOTE ]

Yes. Funny because they're true. If you want to make a case for Mordecai "Three Finger Brown", I'm listening.

[/ QUOTE ]
You're joking right? You realize that neither of these are remotely true.

well, one team didnt win the WS for 85+ years b/c they sucked the whole time

the other team didn't win for 85+ years b/c they narrowly missed more than a few times, despite having a few great teams

one team has fans that really care about winning, the other had fans that cared mostly about drinking in the bleachers

plus the super gay Curse of the Billy Goat was copied and popularized due to the slightly less gay Curse of the Bambino

now, cue the "reasons red sox fans suck thread"

Dawson's best three years with the Cubs:
87- .287 .328 .568
88- .303 .344 .504
90- .310 .358 .535

For the record, Dawson is my favorite player of all time.

Come on, let's try to keep this one on track! [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]



Although 2+2, I am proud that this thread has gone more than 25 posts without some loudmouth jagbag trying to defend the Cubs. Thank you!

1) Fans who continue to support the awful ownership group by filling the stadium every damn year.
2) Fans who care more about the stadium and it's "atmosphere" than their team.
3) TV announcers who mention how all the visiting players "just love playing in Wrigley."
4) That old woman they showed crying on TV when the Cubs were losing Game 7 of the 2003 NLCS. Get a life.
5) Overrated hot dogs, overpriced tickets, d-bag suburban families making "the big trip to the CITY" to see the Cubs.
6) Being packed into a L car with no air conditioning in the middle of the summer with a bunch of smelly, drunk losers before/after Cubs games.
