October 19, 201510 yr FWIW many people have asked me if I'm rooting against the Cubs, being a Sox fan and my answer is the same "A) No--why would I? B) Rooting against them won't make us better." Emphasis on the latter. What is depressing is even if they only get this far, for one season under Maddon and four starting rookies--that's pretty effin' amazing. They have a lot of years to look forward to. Then there's us...
October 19, 201510 yr I root against the Cubs for the same reason I root against the Yankees and Red Sox--their obnoxious fans don't deserve to celebrate a championship.

October 20, 201510 yr Aren't you a Notre Dame fan? I actually went to ND though, and even worked for the football program for a year, so that's a bit different than just being the obnoxious bandwagon fan. I also find a lot of those ND fans annoying.

October 20, 201510 yr Author Touchdown Jesus! Rudy! Tim Brown! And 1947 Heisman Trophy winner Johnny Lujack once jumped in my car and stopped it from rolling out into traffic when I left it in neutral instead of park. Sadly, his Chevy dealership in the Quad Cities lost its franchise relationship, but that's another story for another day. Edited October 20, 201510 yr by caulfield12

Also went to ND, and can confirm that I too find a lot of ND fans completely obnoxious, too many unfortunate similarities with Cub fans. But it wasn't too bad when I was there (2008-2012) because the football team had a very mediocre stretch during my tenure.
