Enough of this slop. The Cubs are a Chicago team. They aren't in our division and aren't a threat to us. We should be supporting the fellow Chicago team.

Oh… Ron… 🤦🏻‍♂️

Getaway day after they won "the series" with several players getting days off. Just call this a planned loss.

Well the fact that they are in a race where every game could matter even more significantly over time...they may want to rethink that philosophy.

Third straight series they had a chance for the sweep and could not close it out.

Very frustrating.

Sorry, that's not happening at least with this individual.

Screw them all.

Bad day for baseball we lost, Cleveland is winning and the. Cubs are winning

I've never seen a season like the Cubs are having. A pair of 10 game win streaks, then lose 18 of 24, now about to win 11 of 13.

With everybody and his brother on the injured list.

How the hell are they doing it????????????????????????????

I guess they’re a streaky team.

Schultz seemed like the same Schultz we have seen before. You really have to use your imagination to think that he can be a consistent starter. He's gotta throw more strikes.

Are you gonna condemn them too for running up the score on a position player?

Ron needs to go to New York and ask if Yankee fans root for the Mets? Or go to the Los Angeles area and ask if Dodger fans root for the Angels.

Please.

You pick a side, Period. Full stop. End of story.

And here's an example of how the Cub organization feels about the White Sox.

For years, decades, the scoreboard at Wrigley when listing American League games would have White Sox on it versus whomever they were playing.

Now and this has been the case I think since the Tribune Company bought the team, although I can't say that for sure, they list the Sox as "Chicago" versus whomever they are playing on the scoreboard.

And we're supposed to root for them? 😆

Yes. I'm consistent with my criticism. That was totally unprofessional by the Cubbies.

My wife once asked me how I'd feel about the Cubs winning it all, and I said it would be like the Brewers winning. It would be nice for them, their fans. I wouldn't troll them upon losing, as I hate that being done to me. in 2016, I didn't participate. I don't even think I was in the country. Didn't plan around the eventuality as I would with the Sox.

I see no reason to root for the Cubs. They tell us all the time they have so many more fans, so I think they're covered for the rooting.

The Orioles' organization is really something else.

The Sox broke another fanbase.
