Is this really an unironic hashtag? One decent team in 108 years and suddenly "Cub" is a metaphor for greatness/excellence.

The bitterness is palpable. Really sad. How often in the night do you wake up in a cold sweat thinking about the 2016 World Series? Talk to someone. There are a lot of shrinks on the north shore. |

The explanation I heard is that they were trying to take something that had been a negative association and turn it into a positive. Instead of referring to the Cubs when players ran into each other or otherwise fucked up, when someone made a good play in training, practice, or whatever they say "That's Cub." I understand their point, but I can also see how other people would find it annoying. |

The past is for cowards and losers, aka many of the Sox fans on this board. There's been so much success and winning on the Southside, they really have a right to make fun of anyone? Sox fans get more insecure and petty with each Cubs W. |

They have come close a number of times but finally a WS Champ in '16. How many threads did you open teasing us before they clinched it last year? Eat your words and wash them down with some Brioski,buddy! |
