It just seems to me that every time a Cubs fan posts a thread about being excited about his team and the cadre of prospects,some Sox fan has to crap on it with their only bullet in their pop gun,2005.

Please tell me more Sox fans about the next Micah Johnson!

That team was not great. It was lucky. Even your fearless leader JORR agrees average teams get hot and win sometimes.

It was an all-time great team based on playoff dominance.

It's ok. The White Sox can have something good too.

The 1993 & 1994 White Sox were great teams.

The 2005 team had a lot of good things happen at the right time.

Nothing wrong with that... :)

teams don't get lucky for a 175-game stretch. :lol: now GMs could get lucky by stumbling onto players that perform well in a given year.

Once again, and this is the beginning and end of the discussion.

No team has had a better playoff record than the White Sox did in 2005 in the history of baseball.

Well, Rick has accidentally released the White Sox fan 'go-to' when the Cubs win the World Series. "They didn't win it as well as the 2005 White Sox."

Oh, that wont matter if they win. If they Win, 2005 will basically cease to exist in Chicago.

Not from me.

Though, it would be a good answer to all the "Cubs built a title team the right way" stuff.

rpb is absolutely being driven nuts by this tiny bit of past success from the Sox.

If the Bears are good I'm not sure that the Cubs would even be a big story by Thanksgiving.

This is no longer a Bears town if the Cubs go on a string of success. Hawks bandwagon will pale in comparison.

This is true BUT before 1969,you just needed the best record to proceed to the Series. The Cubs have had the best record in the NL twice since 1984.

The biggest story in Chicago yesterday was the NFL draft returning.

Uhh, how does this even begin to refute what I just said?

Joe Maddon stuff dominated sports talk radio last November. The POTENTIAL of the Cubs eventually being good was a top story during Bears season.

Football is bigger than baseball, both in Chicago and in the nation. The NFL, in the preseason, is dominating the news in Chicago even while the Cubs establish themselves as the greatest team in baseball.

It won't be a Cubs town until that changes, even if the Cubs become the Cardinals.

It was literally mentioned as a footnote at the end of the sportscasts and there is a thread on it with 3 replies.
