Nope. Something will happen. bernstein can repeat his mantra that "THESE AREN'T THE SAME CUBS!" as much as he wants, but he said the same thing in '03 and '04. I hope I'm wrong. I'm really rooting for jimmypasta. |

The Cubs/Sox rivalry, considering they didn't even play most of the time, was built on both teams not winning the World Series for a long time, and then one team not winning the World Series for a long time while the other did. There really isn't a reason for one to exist at all if the Cubs win one. |

FUCK YOU!!!!" tip = yep, fuck em all i say. tho last time i wore a different jersey to a cubs game it was an arsenal jersey after they won their first FA cup in 2014 and some dude stopped and started singing arsenal songs and i had to pretend like i know the words. and there was even a dude in a van persie netherlands kit in the section in front of me so when he oscillated at one point and fixated on me like "holy shit is that an arsenal kit?" i got to give him the nod and the shit eating grin. |

btw with my cubs fan grandpa he went like this..... one day after a brunch him (5'7" / 160 or something... older ofc) and my dad (6'4" /240 or something nad prolly still mid-50s) started matching each other on shots for awhile. so when they finished my dad comes stumbling out with this egregious drunk walk and stumbles and bumbles into the back of the then-windstar and proceeds to pass out in the back seat almost immediately. a few mins later my grandpa walks out with my grandpa "cooler than the other side of the pillow" and walks up to me and says all matter-of-factly "jimmy, 35% of all accidents are caused by drunk drivers....... watch out for the sober ones!" and proceeds to take grandma to the car and drive off like it didnt even faze him. that's the kind of cubs fan i can roll with, and as he now has recently entered the nursing home portion of his life i really wouldn't mind him and the uncle getting to see a title, even if it does mean the end of the world. |

all the other sox fans are probably down at the bar watching the game, and I'm here stuck at work. |
