I've been a Cubs fan since I was 5 years old ! I am 37 now and I am still a huge cubs fan ! Greg Maddux, Andre Dawson and Mark Grace are never to be forgotten! read more

Chicago's latest team to win a national championship is really likable. They're funny, they help popularize the sport, they help support many community initiatives, and best of all they have the perseverance and drive to win games. Hopefully there will be many more World Series Championships for this amazing sports team to come. read more

The goat, a black cat, & Bartman... After 108 years, all the curses are gone. With last nights victory the Chicago Cubs are World Series Champions. Really. Wait till next year fans would always say. Well this is the year. Bringing in Theo Epstein as president years ago, who had a resume was a start. He had a 5 year plan. Give it some time. How many times have you heard that one. But thru the draft, free agency & trades it actually worked. 6 of the 9 starters are under the age of 30. Having a young core of everyday players is always a key. It's been fun watching you guys develop. Even in a major market like Chicago. Then you plug in a piece here and there. Whether it's in free agency or those deadline deals for a missing piece ( like a closer) this year. Somewhere, Ernie Banks(Mr Cub), Ron Santo or even former announcer Harry Carey are smiling. Bryant to Rizzo. Cubs win. Holy Cow! read more

BUYER BEWARE! We purchased $200 worth of tickets for a Sunday afternoon game at Wrigley Field. The game was cancelled due to bad weather, and re-scheduled for a Monday afternoon 6 weeks later. We cannot take off school and work that day. The Cubs refused to refund the tickets or exchange them for a different game. Customer Service told me to re-sell them myself! #1 I have no idea how to do that and #2 tickets to a Monday afternoon game on a school day are less desirable and I will lose money. This unfair policy was not disclosed when I purchased the tickets. How is this even LEGAL? read more

Despite editing a few lines, I ran out of space last time. Anyway, this Update will be somewhat short (well, at least for me). +The Cubs regularly had 10-12 hits a game (CF Marlon Byrd had 170 hits and a .293 batting average- 3 other players hit .300 or better). -The team batting average could have been better (.257- there are 30 Major League Baseball teams, and the Cubs finished 21st in overall batting). There were a fair number of games where the team did next to nothing (the Cubs were outscored 20-1 in the 2 games my wife and I went to- Aramis Ramirez hit a home run against the Cardinals). The Cubs also struggled to make their hits count (they left a lot of runners on base). I often saw them score a measly 3 or 4 runs despite drawing a few walks and having 10 or more hits (a better team would have regularly scored 6 or more runs). Clutch hitting was a problem all season. +Like a lot of fans, I miss Harry Caray. Len Kasper and Bob Brenly are very solid announcers, though. +All the little promos annoy me (no matter what you're watching, there's a plug pretty much every commercial break), but WGN is a great network. It's family friendly, similar to the Cubs (I just wouldn't bring any kids younger than 6 to a game, partly because of the weather). -Bad pitching. Although the team ERA was solid (4.18), 11 pitchers had an ERA of 5.18 or more. The bullpen was especially shaky (it was also a problem all year). My wife and I thought that we were prepared for the weather in Chicago, but no. We had the right clothing, but at the wrong times. The game on 9/23 started at 6:05 (night games at Wrigley Field are rare). It was a little hot and humid throughout. Our jackets weren't needed. The game on 9/24 started at 1:20. It was very windy throughout. Our jackets were needed (oh yeah), but we didn't bring them (I got tired of lugging all this shit around the day before, and I didn't want it to happen again- you can imagine how dumb I felt while watching the game, but some fans were in shorts!). Thankfully, the game ended at about 4 (we left quickly, and it was good to get warm again). Sadly, my wife and I weren't able to hear "Go Cubs Go" (Steve Goodman is basically a folk hero because of the song). It's fine that the Giants beat them, but we were really hoping to see the Cubs beat the Cardinals (they actually went 9-6 against the Cardinals during the season, winning 6 of the last 8 games). Anyway, we love the song, and would have sang along with the Cubs fans if given the chance ("Denied"). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O_x3rjs07l8&feature=fvst read more

Three Stars on Yelp means "A-OK," and guess what Cubbies... you and your losing ways be A-OK to the rest of us in the National League. WHAT ARE YOU DOING? When I saw my boy The Best Wurst write a review of the Cubs tonight, I thought... damn, he should lead a campaign to change Chicago: have these drunkards actually care about their team by: a) not showing up to games if they suck and b) write negative reviews so management will take note so something will change. So here we are. Chicago Cubs, I don't like you. I don't think you're cute. I don't think your stadium is what it's cracked up to be, and I don't think you're worthy of the attention. This isn't a rant. This is a message to you: get it together, and you'll be loveable. You're not loveable now. You're lose-able. You're the cute fraternity boy (or sorority gal) that has been handed a tarnished anointing oil canteen, and you don't know what to do with it, so you a) put on a North Face fleece, or b) take your shirt off in the bleechers or c) make incredible idiotic signings as a General Manager. Why don't you take the option d) spend more than the yankees and angels combined to create the world's greatest power house and just end this clown show already? But again, if I'm rooting for the Montreal Expos -- as I am -- and I'd like to see other National Leaguers fare well... you are A-OK. read more

I can't understand how it is even possible to give the Chicago Cubs any more than three stars at the very maximum. I am tired of the mediocrity that is considered acceptable with this organization. The only reason I have gave them two stars was because they are entertaining at times: they made some good runs in 2003, 1998, 1989, and 1984. However when I think of the Cubs the things that pop first into my mind is comedy: the slug fest between Barrett and AJ, Steve Bartman, and the ball rolling through Leon Durham's legs in the NL Championship series against the Padres in 1984. Finally this year the Cubs have made some strides in actually making the impression that they want to improve the quality of baseball on the north side. It does not look like they are there yet but they are moving in the right direction. read more

THIS IS YOUR YEAR CUBS FANS! Alright as of today the Cubs have the best record in the Majors...Not there division....not there league..... IN ALL OF BASEBALL! The Cubbies are 78-49...PCT: .614....The closest team in there division is Milwaukee with a record of 73-55 and a PCT of .570....that puts them 5.5 games back.....The other closes team in there National league are the Mets who have a record of 71-57 and a PCT .555....Obviously 7 games behind the Cubs...In the American league the teams with the best records are the Tampa Bay Devil Rays and Los Angelos Angels who are 77-49......Still not a better record then your Chicago Cubs! The Cubs aren't your average team.....they show you glimpses of a championship team! Winning plenty of series....scoring more then 10 runs a game and having 15 or more hits a game on many occasions....They might loose a game or 2 in a row but they always bounce back and get on a hot streak of 7-8 games in a row..... The addition of coach Lou Piniella has bin remarkable as he's transformed this team into titans with one and only mission.....World Series baby.... The Cubs have a sick ass starting pitchers rotation: Ace Carlos Zambrano.....Ryan Dempster.....Rich Harden....Ted Lilly and Jason Marquis....There Bullpen is equally good with Lights out man Carlos Marmol....Jeff Samardzija.....Bob Howry.....Chad Gaudin.....Neal Cotts and Sean Marshall..... Both of the Cubs catchers are solid with, in my opinion, rookie of the year Geovanny Soto and Henry Blanco (i like to call him Hank White).... The Cubs have the Nicest infielders with a lineup that includes: Ronny Cedeño.....Mark DeRosa....Mike Fontenot....Derrek Lee.....Aramis Ramírez....Ryan Theriot and Chicago native Daryle Ward... There Outfielders includes my personal favorite: Alfonso Soriano.....Jim Edmonds....Japans great Kosuke Fukudome and Reed Johnson.... Oh yea can't forget the Genius Ron Santo! read more

I know some White Sox fans who hate the Cubs, their fans, stadium, etc... player haters... I've been to the Cell, leaving a game and have Sox fans say they wish they went to Wrigley.... sensible people.... Yes, they haven't won a world series in 100 years, their stadium is a old and falling apart, their fans are usually at a game for the large beer garden known as Wrigley Field; not for the game, but I love them anyways. I cheer for them loudly and proudly where ever I am. They have fans all across America and even the world. The Cubs are my team, the Red Sox are my American League team. Those are my baseball alliances, I have no others. read more

Tried to book our large organization at Wrigley Field on a non-game day and was told that was only available to corporate sponsors! Their web page says nothing about being a sponsor first! Talk about Elitism! Post it on your site so you don't waste our time with your elitism! read more

Cubs fans, I get it. I'm an A's fan. We're the same. You make do with less than other teams, but put up comparable numbers in spite of it. But you never make it to the World Series. But there's always next year! The overly-numerous losses make the victories so much sweeter. and so on and so forth. My first Cubs game at Wrigley Field was sad. The visiting Pirates hit a grand slam in the first inning. Yikes. The Cubs bats were silent the entire night except for a single base-hit in the bottom of the eighth. (Yup, the Pirates pitched a 1-hitter). Even though the game was sad and the Cubs got wiped out, I suppose it was also fitting in a way. It's part of the experience. Who knows, I may never actually get to experience "Go, Cubs, Go" in-person. But if I do, the experience will be that much sweeter. read more

Just saying; why was this game played tonight? 40 degrees, raining all day; so easy to reschedule with team from chicago

I wasn't really a fan of baseball because I didn't know what was going on ever. When they won game 7, I almost cried, because... The championships taught me all of about baseball, the beauty of the sport and the Cubs team. Anthony "the hips don't lie" Rizzo, Baez with quick thinking plays on the field, Russel's grand slams and old timer Ross - who knew you could play professional ball at the age of 50. Watching Lester in his finest hour -- after he brushed off those nerves! And who knew the skinny Edwards Jr. could keep us safe from additional runs in the last inning. And Madden, stone faced - never showing any emotion. I love them all and thank you all for allowing me to fall in love with the game! Go Cubs Go! You gotta a fan for life. read more

If not the all around worst, then certainly the most disappointing sports team in the entire world. I'm giving the Cubs one star by using the same criteria I would use to judge a pizza place. If when I order a pizza, it seems like it's going to be good and nothing can go wrong, then when it arrives it's just a box with a bicycle tire in it, I would give that place one star. The fact that this pizza place has been doing this for over 100 years would not make me add another star. Perhaps people are drawn to the Cubbies the same way they are to a Greek tragedy and they see the team as Hector, but I don't think following this team is worth the pain. read more

I'm too disappointed and sick (in/of you) to write a review of you right now. I'll be back in Februaryish to comment. Either way, I'll stick by you, because I love you. No matter what. I promise. I guess that there's always next year. **EDIT** Ok, I promised that I would be back, and I am. WIth the dawning of a new season upon us, it's only fit to be an optimist and let it be known, THIS IS OUR YEAR! read more

I still root for them. My mother, rest her soul, was a life-long die-hard fan. She brought me here as a girl to my first baseball game. Really, it's a sentimental attachment; I don't know that I could reliably name any of the current roster (besides Kerry Woods). But it would be great if they brought back Steve Stone in the broadcasting booth! (hint for the new Cubs owners). read more

Dear Cubs, Sorry you haven't been playing all that well. If it's any consolation at all, I really like your uniforms and your park is pretty cool. Maybe if you tried a little harder and practiced a little more, you could finally win some games. Good luck to you, always... Julie D. read more

Dear Mr. Ricketts, I'm a season ticket holder and I have suffered through MANY of the 197 losses over the past two seasons. Worse yet, I tend to drag my two boys to many games and watch as their faces plummet while inning after inning the score becomes more and more lopsided. The bloom is off the rose as far as the rebuilding Tom. There's only so much losing, only so many 11 - 2 games one can take - game after game after game. Very, VERY sick of the 'getting murdered in the first two games before salvaging a 3 - 2 "victory" in the series finale on getaway day' cycle we are in. I follow the club closely. I am informed on the stadium and revenue initiatives. I can't find anything you've done recently that is FOR THE FANS instead of for your own bank account. Are more weekend night games "for the fans"? H%LL NO! We L-O-V-E sitting in the sunshine on weekends. What the F#@#$! are weekend night games good for? Your bank account. (And desecrated lawns in the Wrigleyville neighborhood). Heard you were going to eliminate any choice for beer in the stands. Budweiser and Budweiser are your choices. Do you think that is "for the fans?". I mean, we are suffering our @$$e$ off watching 40 to 50 lopsided losses a year, and you're going to take away the only non-Budweiser choice we have? I think that one is another check mark in the "only for your bank account" column, because it certainly is not "for the fans". Wrigley Field also has the worst food menu in the entire major leagues. The reason is predominantly the archaic infrastructure where no open-flame cooking is possible. In all of the mountains of renovation talk, I have not seen one peep about upgrading the cooking infrastructure inside the ballpark. I hope that is on the renovation menu, because that would be the only 'win-win' that I see happening for the fans which also would benefit your bank account. Despite hundreds of articles about our AA and AAA talent, and hundreds of articles about the controversial renovation, I have not heard one thing that tells me the 2014 Cubs will lose less then 90 games. So what, Mr, Ricketts, in all of the mountains of news you have made this fall, is "for the fans"? Our team was 27th or 28th in everything, our best batting average was .251, and our "wins" leader had NINE WINS. Please do something "for the fans". Please get better players, please give us more choice for food and drink, and please, for God's sake, if our beloved team has to be so awfully horrible, then let us watch this horrible team play in God's glorious sunshine as much as possible - ESPECIALLY SATURDAYS. Thank you *2014 update: Cubs hire Joe Madden. Good news for Cub nation. Thank you* read more

Cubbies!!!!!!!! Some hot looking guys finally winning the World Series after 108 years. Such a spectacular ending, even with Theo Epstein's f-bomb on live TV! read more

Chicago Cubs - Professional Sports Teams Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I am a super huge cubs fan since I was born. I like all of the players and coaches. The organization is a cool one.

Great game 9/4/10; the weather was perfect and the Cubs won vs the Mets 5-3. Thank goodness I missed the fiasco on 9/5 where the Cubs lost 5-18 to the Mets, I would have eaten my hat for sure. Parking is tricky. Everyone and their brother will sell you a spot anywhere from 1 block to a mile away from Wrigley Field. You have to look for "easy in - easy out" spots, otherwise they will park cars in front of and behind you and you will be trapped until the other cars drive away. The going rate is about $20-$25 to park, but I have parked as cheap as $15 on Irving Park Rd, and on the high side its $30+ to park very close. You may never win the World Series again... but, Go Cubs, GO! read more

They break my heart when they lose, and when they win my life is full of elation. How is that possible? A baseball team determines when my life is awesome? Yes, it's true. I don't go to Wrigley for the beer, I go for the team and the sport. I travel to other cities to see them play. Usually at away venues, Cubs fans fill up at least 1/3 of the stands, usually more like 1/2. It's because we're die-hards! I will forever be loyal to my Cubbies even if they lose. Each new season, hope springs eternal. Here's to wishing for that fairytale ending! read more

So proud of our Cubbies! They played an amazing season and FINALLY won the World Series after 108 years! I think I truly became a Cubs fan after attending The Anthony Rizzo Foundation event, which raises money for kids with pediatric cancer. A bunch of players were there serving food to guests, taking photos and signing autographs. It was truly a spectacular night! read more

I moved to Illinois when I was 5 and left there when I was 10. That was just enough time to get hooked and consider myself die hard. I cried when I left the Chicagoland area. I asked my mother, "...but, but what about Harry Carey and Steve Stone??!" She had no idea who these friends of mine were. 1. Bob Dernier 2. Ryne Sandberg 3. Leon "Bull" Durham 4. Keith Morland 5. Gary "Sarge" Matthews 6. Ron "Penguin" Cey 7. Jody Davis 8. Larry Bowa 9. Rick Sutcliffe Every afternoon on WGN. Come home from school and watch the game. It might be, it could be, IT IS!!!!! read more

The Cubbies take a lot of crap around this city. The general assumption is that if you wear blue you're a Chad or Trixie and have no idea what you're talking about. God, I hate that. Sure there are a decent chunk of idiots who go to Wrigley and pretend to be fans, but there are plenty of those guys in every sports venue in America. And yes, it has been 100 years since we've brought home a World Series, but what are we supposed to do as fans? Stop watching? Stop Cheering? Hell no! Yes it is frustrating as all get out, but I'm not just going to walk out on my team. So Sox fans, I don't expect you to like the Cubs. Lord knows I hate the Sox, but give it a rest. Cubs fans are not all frat boy drunks, a lot of us care and know what it is we are caring about. read more

What a great start this year eh? Already beating the sox's records, so yo u sox fans can stick it in your mouth! cubs fans are the best out there. they are their for the game. its an old ballpark and doesnt need to sell its self out to some major company (cough US CELLULAR) wrigley is a classic and will stay that way. so unless you want to go to the ghetto southside and risk ur life while not even paying attention to the game because you are distracted by the 10000's of advertisements then go to us cellular. if you want a good old classic baseball game that you cant get anywhere else. go to wrigley. ill let you park in my parking space (for a price...2 blocks away) go cubs! read more

Going to a game at Wrigley is a great treat, even if you're not a Cubs Fan. The park has a history unmatched and I don't care how bad of a time you're going thru, you get away from it all at the ball game. Love it! read more

Still losing after all these years.

Seeing the Cubs and visiting Wrigley Field are one if not about the only thing left unchanged from when I was a kid. Unfortunately, that includes the absence of a World Series appearance, Nonetheless, a trip to Wrigley is a great way to spend a day or evening. I've acclimated to the lights, the advert sing can go away though. I wouldn't be too upset if that Toyota sign blew over in the next windstorm. But seeing the ivy and the smell of the park still overrides the relatively few modernizations they've added. read more

Uh, hello? Why do we even need to review the Cubs? A five star rating should be automatic. PS- Lou Piniella is GOD. read more

Thank you Tribune organization for finally finding a couple seats for me at your games. Now, please give my boyfriend, Carlos Zambrano, some money and ask him to stay off the internet porn. Oh, and how 'bout working on a bullpen? . read more

It was 1988 the Cubs were playing the Dodgers on a sunny day and I was watching my first baseball game. It was a lazy summer afternoon with no school, no class, nothing to do but pass the hours by while my parents were at work. There was a guy in the box watching while another guy was flinging a baseball at him over and over again. There were balls and strikes and outs and base-hits that didn't register and didn't compute for me. What in the world was an RBI? Was it some award that these batters won? A summer later I finally understood baseball by watching all of those games on WGN with broadcasting duo Harry Caray and Steve Stone with the Holy Cows and spelling of names backwards. In 1989 there was Domingo Ramos, Jerome Walton, Dwight Smith, Damon Berryhill, along with Hall of Famers Greg Maddux, Ryne Sandberg and Andre Dawson. This 1989 squad clinched the NL East title out in Montreal but the game I remember the most is one summer game they were down 9-0 against Houston Astros and kept chiseling away at the lead and won 10-9 booya! I went to my first Cubs game either that season or next when my dad had some tickets from the office. He only had two tickets and didn't know a thing about baseball and sent me and my brother there alone, I think we are a hot dog and pop while we watched the game and the Cubbies lost that day. I remember watching George Bell hop in a cab after the game while we waited for my dad to come pick us up in the Oldsmobile Cutlass Sierra before the advent of wide-scale mobile telephone technology. There was the day it was 104° and the heatwave killed over 500 senior citizens and it was a furnace outside. Me and a friend headed out to Wrigley Field with some $12 bleacher seats and sat in the sweat-stained bleachers during the legendary 1995 heat wave. I don't know how we survived or what rationale drove us to sit in the bleachers that day but we were stubborn as mules and survived the oppressive, blistering heat. One day I will tell my descendants about this day and they will view it as senile hyperbole, but it's true - I was there. In 2008 I went to two dozen home games using the magic SRO line, grabbing Club Box seats, bleachers, Outfield Reserved, SRO with secret third-inning upgrades. I damn well caught a home run ball that year on the first barbecue of the year on Waveland Avenue during batting practice while nonchalantly carrying a 30-pack in my hands. I have been lucky to choose to be a Cubs fan with that first pitch I saw on that day in 1988 and will be a Cubs fan til the day I no longer walk this earth. The start of pitchers and catchers reporting provides the first hint that indeed, spring is JUST around the corner and with the warmer weather there will be another one in 30 chance the Cubs will win the World Series and that wretched Billy Goat Curse will go the way of the Bambino - lost, gone and etched into the history books. Every year that Sports Illustrated or ESPN picks the Cubbies to go all the way I can't say I'm not proud of my team but it surely sets me up for the inevitable disappointment of too many day games and a championship drought that carry the unanswered prayers of a nation of Cubs fans. We've waited for so long, so long for that satisfying taste of championship so bitterly withheld from us. It's springtime once again and every next year that ever was is here right in front of us, the season begins with every team sporting a 0-0 record. Next year is here again, kids - and we're going to bring that giant old trophy home! read more

Minus one star for all those damn errors! But come on, the Cubbies are America's team. Wrigley Field is a gem and the Cubs will make up for the decades of losses someday. Look at the White Sox. Three cheers for the baseball team from Chicago with class! read more

As a kid I admired the Cubs - Ryan Sandberg and Mark Grace, hell even Andre Dawson and Jerome Walton. They made me fall in love with the game of baseball. I've followed the Cubs everywhere I went, and cheered for them every step of the way. I was always impressed with the undying dedication and support of the fans. When I moved to Philadelphia in 2005 I was promptly introduced to the most pessimistic fans to ever attend a baseball game. It took a World Series to turn this town around, maybe that's what it will take for all you Cubbie-hatting Yelpers. Maybe next year, that is... read more

Why all the hate for loving the Cubs? Just because they haven't won a championship in 100+ years? So what! I've been a fan since I was 6, and I will continue to be a fan until my last breath. read more

I may not be a Cubs fan but I will give you stars because you're a Chicago sports team. And you do have Wrigley Field and it is beautiful and you have all those places to go to around the area, but boo for no decent parking! Maybe next season will be the season for you? read more

Oh come on... the cursed goat says that despite your current rank of 4th place, you still aren't likely going to get far come the end of the season. Flashback 2003. I was home for a wedding. Me and my family watched as they blew it in Game 7 against the Marlins. My dad was hoping that would finally be their big year. I saw pictures of Bill Murray in the stands... he's getting up there and doesn't want to die before the Cubs finally make it. Celebrity lives are depending on you people! My dad is a loyal Cubs fan. And I'll admit, when I was younger I was in that camp as well too. The last game I saw the Cubbies play live back in IL was against the White Sox.. and well we all know how that turned out (ahem.. go Southside). I really do want you to win one of these days. I really do. If its anyone who deserves it, it's you guys. Which is why I'm giving you the extra star. The fans are devoted. Harry Carey was a legend. And one secret... one of my sons shares a name with a player from the Cubbies. For the nostalgia... for the crowd. There's nothing like being back home at a ball game eating a hawt dawg weather its at Wrigley with the Cubbies or over at Cominskey's White. Let's hope this is your year. read more

I've been a Cubs Fan since the late 70's...I BLEED CUBBIE BLUE! Cubs have made this grown ass man cry three times (at least three times) First time was back in 1984. Ryne Sandberg's MVP Season. (back then; it was ONLY one round of the playoffs before going to the World Series, and it was only the best of 5. Cubs won the first 2 games, just one more win, and Cubs go to the WS. Just One more win. BUT NOOOO!, Cubs lost three straight in San Diego. I still have side effects from that ordeal. Made playoffs in 1989 and 1998, but I did not cry. (I really did not, no seriously I didn't cry, I think I didn't, well...) Second Time Cubs made me cry was in 2003. I was balling, we were just 5 outs away from going to the World Series. I dont blame Bartman. Cubs just choked. Cubs were up in NL Championship Series vs The Marlins 3 games to 1. Just one more win. I went to Miami to see games 4 and 5. Cubs Won Game 4, up 3-1, but lost game 5. Ah, but we have Mark Prior and Kerry Wood back home at Wrigley. No Way we will lose back to back games, RIGHT? And they did, and the Cubs broke my heart...yet again! The suffering continues. Made playoff in 2007 and 2008, but I did not cry. (well maybe a little) Made playoffs in 2015, but was not expecting much. Cried very little. Ah, but the World Series of 2016! Down 3 games to 1. Cubs Win the Next two Games! Then its the 7th Game of the World Series. Tied Game 6-6, Goes into extra innings, then a Rain Delay. OMG, this is too much. Cubs scored twice in the top of the 10th. and they needed it. Of course Cleveland would score one more time. Game Now is 8-7. Tying run on base. OMG! AND THEN, AND THEN...it happened, it really happened! My Beloved Chicago Cubs Won the World Series. I cried again, but this time it was TEARS OF JOY! FINALLY! Champions! I felt like a new man! I AM A NEW MAN! FLY THE W! Indeed! Win or lose, I will always Bleed Cubbie Blue. Thank You Cubs for making me cry. read more

I love the Cubs and I am not even from Chicago. You have to stay loyal to your underdogs - that's what being a Sports Fan is all about. (Trust me, I have been a Red Sox fan since birth). The Cubs will come around. You just need a little faith. read more

I LOVE MY CUBBIES... but they need to get workin' this season! For God's sake, I can't listen to all the Sox fans trash them anymore! Come on Cubs, give us North Siders something to cheer for, hope, anticipation... not anxiety, apprehension, lethargy... Curse? I doubt it, these guys are so far removed from it... it's time to turn it on and show everyone what you've got! 34 years, I've sung "a-one, a-two, a-three...at the old ball game" and I'm still waiting for that day when I can not just defend my lovable Cubbies, but for the day that they are no longer the lovable losers. Here's to this year! read more
