I’m a Cardinals fan, so I loved Bartman, and was hoping another Bartman would appear last year. We came so close that last inning with the Indians. Oh well.

See, that's where we're different. I'm a lifelong Cubs fan, but when it's the Cards in the World Series, I'm rooting for them because we're all National League, a family where we play real baseball, not that abomination with a "designated hitter".

I know lots of Cubs fans that would never root for the Cards, either. I grew up seeing the Bleacher Bums come to St. Louis and get in fights in the stands, and have rooted against the Cubs ever since. I generally root for the National League, but I always enjoyed the curse. I also hoped the Curse of the Bambino would last forever, too. I thought it was justice. Now that both curses are gone, not sure how I feel about the Cubs this year. Check with me in October.
