It's raised not just above the POW/MIA flag, but also the US flag. #CubsNation
It is never lowered.

Fly until Opening Day. And even then, it will only be lowered for three hours.

You can take it down whenever. If you have had it up for this long, everybody in your neighborhood is well aware that you're a douchebag.

We're talking about a 'W' flag, not a Minnie Miñoso shirsey.

If you find out a way to hoist a bronze statue up a flagpole, kindly let me know.

in the fall, the moment some other team knocks the cubs out of the championship

if they dont, and the cubs win it all again, the flag stays up.

That's a step up from being the neighborhood exhibitionist.

As I've said before, imagine what you guys would be thinking if Boston or New York fans were flying a victory flag like this. It was kind of cute when the Cubs weren't good but it's going to quickly turn quite obnoxious if it isn't already.

I wouldn't ponder even for a second about what someone in NY or Boston or wherever to celebrate the team he roots for winning something. Who honestly cares, aside from the mentally deficient of course?

I guess we found the guy who doesn't think Boston and New York fans are obnoxious! Good for you. It sounds like you have a good perspective on being a sports fan. Many others though do judge other fan bases for being obnoxious.

Sox fans can't stop worrying about the best team in baseball! Hope your prospects work out!

I'm sorry your mental discipline is poor.

Well, no shit. One fan base in Chicago thinks about the other more than they think about their own team!

They sure do. I'm glad you can admit the problem your fanbase has.

I hope this belief of yours is a running bit. Even most Sox fans admit they care about the Cubs. Hell, America was on suicide watch after the cubs won it all.
