These are my expectations going forward. Anything less than this is failure.
2014: Within 2 games of .500
2015: Make the playoffs or have at least 87 wins.
After that competitive at least every other year.

Also, a top 10-15 payroll, and if they are winning and need to keep players then a top 10 payroll.

Right. If Cubs fans set those as the expectations 3 years ago - BRick and JORR would fight each other to post about it first

Feel free to post your expectations for next 2014 and 2015.

Why do you care what my personal expectations are for a team you have repeatedly said you don't care about? :lol:

Isn't the State of Illinois broke? Is it reasonable to expect Jerry can extract more transfer payments to support a top 10-15 payroll?

I care about both teams. I want the Cubs to win a World Series too. Where are you getting that I don't care about the Cubs?

You say it whenever you feel like arguing about why Cubs fans post about the Sox.

Link please.

If I have ever said that, then I was completely wrong in saying it.

I have said I care more about the Sox than the Cubs but that isn't the discussion here.

Chicago White Sox fans: Happy with better than mediocre "at least every other year."
