But I'm as nervous as a cat in a rocking chair factory, because I know nothing is definite yet. If they win, it will be great. If they lose, I'll take the abuse. (God knows I'm used to that...) The Cardinals have proven that the best team doesn't always win the World Series. The Cardinals have lost more World Series than the Cubs. What does that prove, exactly?

That the Cardinals have been to more World Series than the Cubs?
If you're going to openly root for a team, you better be prepared to take the abuse when they lose.[/QUOTE]
Are you sure about that one? All Cubs fans have been saying since last year that the Cardinals did not deserve to win the World Series. That might be true, but they won the division (and still might this year) last year and performed when it counted. The Cubs might not even make the post season if they cannot beat the Dodgers and most of the team is healthy. You even have Woody back.

For your information, they are ranked. They won the last 2 Div. 1-AA Championships and it was a big upset in the Big House. Do not let the facts get in the way of being a Cubs fan. Next thing you are going to tell me the U of I has one a national championship in basketball too.
