Jesus Chris Spots, let it go already. I feel years of pentup frustration coming out. Enjoy it already, cause it ain't gonna last!!!
Are the Cubs cursed? Call it what you want. They had their chance in '03 and it got away. That ESPN show you mention was a great show, as was the one about Billy Buck.
You misrepresent the Cubs issues though. Yes, Kerry Wood is the best pitcher in MLB history never to win 14 games. And yes if he comes back healthy, the Wrigley Nation will embrace him. But while the Tribune has done everything ($$$ wise) to try to put a winning team on the field the past five years, they were out to lunch this past year. Clement leaves, Wood and Prior go down, and they did nothing. They have some serious holes going into next year, but they're probably not as far away as you think with a little luck. Oh well, it's water under the bridge now.
As far as the fans go...it's all about supply and demand. Cub fans out number Sox fans at least 4:1 in Chicago, and probably 10:1 nationally. Cubs tickets are a harder buy and if someone doesn't want their tickets, they have 10 buyers lined up. If the Sox had their **** together, they would've built an appealing stadium that would've drawn more fans.
Rut...I wouldn't be talking smack about the Cardinals bud! Great team, but so are the Braves!
