Hey Jeff,
The Cubs don't suck. In 2004 and 2005 they were decimated by injuries. I'd like to see how the Cardinals, White Sox or any team for that matter would fare without their #1 and #2 pitchers for significant portions of the season. To win you need to avoid injuries to your key players and you need career years from one or two second line players and your star players have to hold their own. Although a Cub fan I don't hate the Cardinals I've always had respect for their organization because they are competitive every year. As a Cardinal fan you better hope that the Tribune never sells the Cubs. The Cubs have a National following and as such their TV rights are probably comparable to the Yankees. We don't see this because of their relationship to WGN. If a Mark Cuban type or one of these Dot.Com guys ever purchases the Cubs they could easily become the "Evil Empire of the National League".
