I said nothing about the parade. The story the day after would be about the game.
Fine, two days then.

So the Cubs winning the World Series isn't a sports story on day 3.

Suppose the Cubs have a Sunday playoff game in October and the Bears have a regular season game the same day: I doubt the Bears get any less than 1/3 of the front page of the sports section the next day

Dont mistake this for a Bears vs Cubs popularity argument


This goes back to saying a Cubs World Series Win would be forgotten by Thanksgiving if the Bears were good


changing the narrative works better.

A Cub playoff game would = coverage of a regular season bears game, assuming mathematically still in it.

A Sox regualr season game in Sept v Bears game might be cancelled.

Should we be proud that preferential coverage would go to the football team that has missed the playoffs 18 times in the last 23 years?

What the fuck you talking about? Your fan base has been reliving the '69 team for 46 years. It's a shame you have NO Memories at all of a WS win :(

NFL Draft drew about 10% of Cubs' yearly attendance in just 3 days. Mind you, only 2% of those people actually made it into the draft to actually watch something. The mere mention of the NFL's presence drew 200K people to the city.




If the Cubs played in Grant Park , we would fill that son of a bitch up too.
