I simply want the Cartoon caricature Indian to win, because its funny and gets the SJW’s panties in a knot

His name is Chief Wahoo (another reason for their hatred, no doubt) and thanks to the interwebs, I now know SJW = Social Justice Warrior. :)

For the sake of the Cubs fans, I hope the Cubs lose the World Series. If the Cubs win the World Series the Cubs fans will have nothing to live for, nothing to hope for, no reason to live. To be a Cubs fan is to be a loser for life. Sorry, but that’s the way it is.

BTW, I was there in 1984 when the Cubs lost 3 straight to the Padres after the Cubs won the first two games of a five game series.

And Chicago actually did win a WS in 2005, it just wasn’t the Cubs.

Before I learned about the Ricketts' war on conservatives, my stated reason for rooting for the Tribe was that, since 1964, Chicago has had TEN major professional sports championships while Cleveland had NONE until the Cavs this year.

GO TRIBE.

Yeah, it’s like the Detroit Lions making it to the Superbowl. As long as Detroit Lions suck, you know all is well with the world.

These are the scumbags who put in $1 million against Tim Huelskamp in Kansas.

Go Tribe!

Bulls 6
Bears 1
Blackhawks 3
White Sox 1

And the White Sox are the team of the Daley's, Obama's and the south side. The Cubs are more the suburban team. I also respect the fact that the Cubs aren't welfare leeches like the Sox, and are redoing the ballpark on their own.

But Obama has climbed on the Cubs bandwagon just the same. Some Sox fan he is.

There is sort of. It’s the only championship trophy (among the NHL NBA NFL and MLB) that isn’t created every year for the winning team. There is the original which is too fragile to be used anymore. It changed shape over the years until it’s current design. There are bands on which the teams members are engraved but at some point the bands fill up and then older bands are removed and new ones added so the current shape will remain as it is now.

If last night’s game is anything to go by, it won’t be a problem. Chicago pulled a Blue Jays last night.

Who knew you could pitch in the Major Leagues without being able to hold a runner on first base?

Lester has been driving me crazy for years with his nonsense, they should take away his next start.

Doesn’t matter. I have contempt for Chicago and all that they are.

Don’t worry. The Cubs will never let their fans down over letting their fans down.

And that recalls my original reason for wanting the Cubs to lose this time and every time until every last Death-to-Steve-Bartman "lovable loser" Cubs fan is in the grave.

What they did to that poor guy--one of their own!--was supremely despicable. As if any of them wouldn't have done the same thing he did in that situation?!

I do not believe an instrument exists to measure my interest in any professional sport. However, I’d like to see the Cubs win the world series, because it would be a clear and unmistakable sign of the apocalypse.

Screw people who politicize this team or that team winning. I want to enjoy sports without fans of the one team spewing reasons why it’s immoral if the other guys win.

You know also oppose Tim Huelskamp btw? Ignorant freepers who were mad he endorsed Cruz and too foolish to realize that his victorious opponent, “Doc” Marshall is a dirty RINO and his victory was part of a massive push by Kansas RINO SCUM to take out conservatives, they got a dozen conservative state legislators too.
