October 17, 200520 yr I was thinking about this last night as i was watching the game with a few of my Cubbie friends last night. If/When the Sox win the series...us sox fans will have the perfect answer to any Cub criticism. Cub Fan: We got 35,000 opening day at Wrigley Sox Fan: We won the World Series Cub Fan: Wrigley is a baseball shrine Sox Fan: We're World Champs!!!!!!! Cub Fan: We've got Mark Prior Sox Fan: We've got 4 pitchers who threw complete game victories en route to being World Champs!!!!!!!!!!!!! There is no comeback!!!!!!!!!!!!! God i love this team. Go White Sox!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
October 17, 200520 yr QUOTE(juddling @ Oct 17, 2005 -> 02:08 PM) There is no comeback!!!!!!!!!!!!! God i love this team. Go White Sox!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Cub Fan: Yeah? Well, the Jerk Store called, and THEY'RE all out of YOU! Edited October 17, 200520 yr by FlaSoxxJim
October 17, 200520 yr Funny how in '03 when they won a playoff series that's ALL they talked and bragged about. But now that it's us, there are no bragging rights unless we win it all? Ha, we have something they haven't had in a looooooong time. LEAGUE CHAMPIONSHIP baby. Until they get there, WE have the upper hand.

Well the last year the Cubbies won the pennant was the year we dropped the bomb on Japan.
October 17, 200520 yr Author On a side note.....did you hear about the injury suffered during the post-game celebration????? i guess Harold Baines pulled a couple of face muscles when he showed some emotion!!!!!!!!!!

October 17, 200520 yr QUOTE(zach61 @ Oct 17, 2005 -> 01:22 PM) Whats the difference? You're their all time best seller. Oh yeah, well I had sex with your wife.
October 17, 200520 yr Cub Fan: We got 35,000 opening day at Wrigley Sox fan: Well we sold out on October 22nd, 23rd, 29th AND 30th. How about you?
October 17, 200520 yr The Cubs could get 35,000 fans to Wrigley to watch Zambrano have sex with a pumpkin on top of the mound for 2 hours, as long as there was beer. Try running that by 'em...

October 17, 200520 yr Honestly, if we win it all, I don't think I will have any "hatred" of the Cubs or their fans again. I just want my team to get there first, after that, I don't care what the Cubs and their fans do or say. Heck, as of now even, there is no other team in this town, IMO.

The "arms race" will be over.
October 17, 200520 yr also, this entire thread is awesome. i need to watch that seinfeld episode now.
October 17, 200520 yr Just wait until next years' Crosstown Series at The Cell. When the Sox take the Field, Gene Honda will announce, "Your World Champion, Chicago White Sox." Then, just look around at the Cub fans and smile.

October 17, 200520 yr One of my wife's friends brought a boyfriend over in July, and of course, he was a Cub fan. So after a long heated conversation about who was the better team, he decided to inform me of how he (as a Cub fan) deals with the White Sox.... "They simply don't exist as far as I am concerned. Chicago only has one baseball team." I didn't like that guy, and I would really love to call his ass up and say, "Don't exist? How you like me now, b****!" Even my wife, the Cub fan, got over me doing the tomahawk chop on a regular basis in '03 and is rooting for the Sox.... This is history were seeing!!!

Well, fine for you if you truly feel that way, but I think most of us will still hate the Cubs. The hatred is too deep. If anything, I'll just feel even better that I'm a Sox fan and thankful that I'm not (*shudder*) a Cub fan. The Cubs are a pathetic organization and that whole losing is cute thing is as pathetic as pathetic gets. Incidently, think about it, when the Sox and Cubs play again next June, my guess is you'll hate 'em.

I've always said when the Sox win the WS, I'll brag like hell for 1 year and then I'll become one of those 'Chicago' fans who roots for all Chicago teams.
