Cubs coverage is just different due to the fanbase. The media is appealing to the lowest common denominator, therefore you get the stories with people being interviewed at bars, etc. When i read "lowest common denominator" i spit out water on my desk. Too funny.

The Cubs Icon in Exile: Sammy Sosa In a rare interview, the former slugger discusses his strained relationship with his old team and why he’s watching the World Series from Paris http://www.wsj.com/articles/the-cubs-icon-...sosa-1477584078

I heard on the radio that cub fans have come up with a new hash tag. #deportjoebuck.

There is this also. http://www.strat-o-matic.com/community/ann...nl-vs-cleveland

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 27, 2016 -> 12:23 PM) In all reality if the Cubs win, the talk will turn to their dynasty. If they lose it will be all about how they are going to win next year. It isn't going to go away. The Cubs fans are like an STD. LMAO. HAHAHAHA. I am going to use that!

Cubs coverage can get nauseating for some die-hard White Sox fans http://www.chicagotribune.com/suburbs/dail...1025-story.html

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Oct 27, 2016 -> 10:31 AM) One of the only things I want for my birthday is for the Cubs to be eliminated. Hope for a bartman type meltdown this weekend.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Oct 27, 2016 -> 10:25 AM) I wouldn't expect their local fan base to diminish at all. I expect the bandwagon base to explode like it did for the blackhawks in 2010

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 27, 2016 -> 10:17 AM) Yeah, that was the worst thing that could have happened to their fan base though. They have become insufferable. I was thinking all that bartman and billy goat crap will go away and they will just be another MLB team. Their fans might not know what to do with themselves when the attention goes away. I could be wrong.

I am at work and all the cubs fans are quiet. Interesting.

I need to change my Facebook settings. All of a sudden I'm getting notifications about my friends reacting to the cubs win. Hundreds and hundreds of comments about dead people, can't stop crying, and etc. Changing it now... Haha

I turn the TV on and the first thing I hear is let's go cubs.

Yeah baby

Five runs isn't horrible. Maybe the tribe scores six? Wishful thinking.

Bi polar cubs fans at work will be cocky once again in the morning. Today they looked as if they lost their best friend.

QUOTE (fathom @ Oct 26, 2016 -> 07:49 PM) Good movement, huge zone. Doubtful they will explode Forget turning the TV on then.

How's Jake looking? Can they get to him?

I just got home. This game worth watching?

Washington State coach Mike Leach is fed up with bandwagon Cubs fans http://www.cbssports.com/college-football/...n-world-series/

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Oct 26, 2016 -> 05:02 PM) I read where the Cubby Bear is charging a $100 cover charge. Barley own and Dueces are charging $250 which includes drinks during the game and entre and an app. Are people really falling for this? Yes and yes. Guy from work and his friends went to the cubby bear and spent 500 to get in.

World Series game could last 3 days under MLB’s rain rule http://nypost.com/2016/10/26/world-series-...mlbs-rain-rule/

I am so hungry for another playoff run. Seeing all these Cub fans running around with playoff shirts makes me depressed. I want my turn again.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 26, 2016 -> 03:23 PM) Game chat ruled It sure did! Was it 2005 we met for breakfast or a few years before?

Found this headline. Supremely confident Cubs have familiar feel, even after World Series Game 1 loss The Cubs' locker room after Game 1 was a reminder of Game 3 in the NLCS
