Of course there is. It isn't the Sox that are known as "Losers". Don't be ridiculous.

Smart of you to ignore the bet offer and change the subject to one that doesn't apply to the current team that coming off a 97 win season has improved itself.

They're still Losers. They're just not Lovable anymore.

They are perhaps the most likable team there is. Probably the most popular team these days.

In my opinion it is true. That doesn't mean that I think he's right all the time.

There's nothing to envy about the Losers.

You can't put Cubs Envy inside of a plexiglass case on top of the new jumbotron.

Sox Subdivision isn't allowing you to celebrate with us after they win the World Series this year. You're less of a Sox fan than Bernstein.

I've been a Sox fan before you were shitting in pampers.

The Cubs can win 17 games a month.

Sounds like a fun summer with a disappointing conclusion. I'm just glad they are true contenders and should be for many years to come, as they are built for sustained success. But I certainly hope you are wrong about the disappointing conclusion to the season.

Cubs Fans Cautiously Optimistic After Jake Arrieta Throws 8th No-Hitter, Team Scores Over 30 Runs For 12th Consecutive Game


NEWS IN BRIEF April 28, 2016
VOL 52 ISSUE 16 · Sports · Baseball

CHICAGO—Stressing that “it’s only April” and that “there’s a lot of baseball still to play,” Cubs fans throughout Chicago told reporters Thursday that they remain cautiously optimistic about their World Series chances after pitcher Jake Arrieta threw his eighth no-hitter of the season, with the team scoring over 30 runs for the 12th straight game. “The Cubs have started really well, and Kris Bryant already has 38 home runs on the year, but it won’t matter unless they can play like this in October,” said longtime fan James Pasta, noting that while he is happy with their performances, he isn’t getting ahead of himself after the Cubs’ five-game sweep of the St. Louis Cardinals by a combined score of 168-0, which included seven different batters hitting for the cycle. “Arrieta’s thrown six perfect games in his last 10 starts, but if he gets hurt, we really just have Jon Lester, John Lackey, and Jason Hammel, and they’ve only thrown five no-hitters between them all season. If everyone can stay healthy and maintain their average of two triple plays per game, I think they’ll have a great shot in the playoffs. But we’ll see.” At press time, Pasta had reportedly lost all faith in the Cubs’ hopes for a championship after watching right fielder Jason Heyward strike out for the first time all season.

Hey JORR, didn't we have a bet about Cubs wins or something? I can't find it anywhere.
