There are bangwagon fans and there is the true. My Dad was a fan since the age of five we are native New Yorkers. I remember him suffering through the late 60’s and much of the 70’s watching every game. I will be waiting for spring training 2013!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That ain't nothin'.

Imagine being a Cub fan. (Better yet, don't imagine it, blech)
There is a bright side for Cub fans though...They can ONLY get better.

All I could say to a Cub fan is , wait till next year... century.

You mean from 1965 to 1975, when they didn't make the playoffs? When they went 888-881 overall (winning more than they lost), and finishing 2nd, 3rd, or 4th (out of 10 teams in the division) in the last 6 of those 10 years... OH YOU POOR BABIES!!!

Since 1919, the Damn Yankees have won less than 70 games ONCE (67 in 1990). Try rooting for a REAL team someday, that knows the thrill of victory because they know actual suffering.

As I said, spoiled children. Nothing more.
