I'm glad Cub fans are so unconcerned. Of course none of you would ever, ever predict a World Series. :lol:

Did anyone predict one this year?

I assume someone must have since there are no concerns. Or are you predicting one for next year? Or some unspecified time in the future? Or maybe there are actual concerns after all?

Concerns:

Starting pitching
Injuries
Strikeouts
Lester not being able to throw to 1st base

However, I am not going to let these concerns take away from the excitement of the season. Win or lose, these Cubs are for real!

And 4th in power rankings in the league.

Biggest concern right now is really the jealousy of Sox fans. But it's enjoyable how butt hurt they are over the Cubs successful season and the Sox pitiful one.

It's funny how when the Sox were over .500 and having successful season after successful season (as currently defined by Sir Darkside) and the Cubs were pitiful, the narrative was that "they're both losers" and "all that matters is a championship", but now that the Cubs may make the second Wild Card and go one and done or get destroyed by the Cardinals at best, that whole narrative has changed.

They may not. But they're playing pretty well. It's funny how Cub fans don't predict multiple World Series wins except when they do. Is it gonna happen or will you be waiting 'til next year? What do you really think?

Once again. No one predicted a world series this year. I think the average win prediction was somewhere around 80 to 82. No one is predicting multiple world series. At least not seriously. But they are saying consistent competitive seasons.

That is a really boring aspiration but hey, Schaumburg was built on those kind of dreams.

My only concern from the Cubs winning anything involves more posts from a certain racist, horse lover from Elmhurst.

Not just Cicero. The assault on "year early'' has been incessant. The line has been set as lose one game wilcard the season has been a failure.
