What I mean is that there are only 2 cities with more than 1 baseball team. The Mets unfortunately will always be behind the Yanks because the Yanks have won a lot over the years. The difference in Chicago is that BOTH teams have been terrible for many, many years. Here is my analgy to a race. For all these years the Cubs have been the hare...flashy and getting all the attention and the Sox have been the tortoise...subdued yet determined.

Well, we all knew who won and as a Sox fan that's the best feeling in the world. We beat the Cubs to the punch and even though they have been getting all the attention it's now our turn. I would've been ticked if the Cubs won first but that didn't happen.

I now live in Arizona and when I tell people where I'm from they say "Cubs fan eh?".

Redemption is oh so sweet!!
Oh so typical Sox Fan. More worried about the Cubs than their own team. I'm a Cub fan and not a Sox fan. Jealous and envious right now? You betcha. I always like to see friends and acquaintances do well and now is no exception. I'm happy for them their team won. I can only imagine the feeling.

Second home game 2006 season who will have the higher paid attendance? 99.9% sure the Cubs will sell out and that's what drives Sox Fans crazy. Tis now and ever will be as long as the Cubs play at Wrigley!!!!!!!
