bear_brian Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 Was listening the ESPN1000 Fred Huebner's show today. His partner - whose name I did not catch - is an avowed Cub fan. the conversation was about the Sox, and what they should be doing to improve their team. At one point Huebner's partner offered up the idea that the Sox "would jump" at a Cub offer of Baez and Soler for Quintana and Eaton; though he then said the Cubs "would never consider" such a deal. I almost drove off of the road. In my mind, that thinking epitomizes many Cub fans. They are beginning to believe the hype. There is no way, at least IMO, that the Sox would be interested in that sort of deal. It certainly undersells Quintana's value, and almost disregards Eaton. Just thought I would share.

Dam8610 Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 Q for Baez and Soler would be lopsided in favor of the Cubs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sox apparently still suck in alot of cubs fans eyes even for winning it all. And hope that I never have to see the cubs win the world series in my lifetime for how ignorant their fans can be. Sad part most are generally fans which make it worse. Edited December 12, 2015 by WhiteSoxLifer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BaconOnAStick Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 Life goes on. Cubs fans made it through the Sox winning, I'm sure we will be ok if they do Sox fans didn't make 2005 out to be the GREATEST MOMENT IN THE HISTORY OF ATHLETICS. Sox fans have our own insecurity problems with the bad attendance and (now that WSCR had turned) ambivalent media. The s***ty ballpark is part of it too. But at least, in my eyes, Sox fans look for validation from in and around Chicago. I think deep down Sox fans just want the Sox to be Chicago's Team again. Up north though it's just a desperate, much more uniquely Chicagoan, desire for global recognition. There's no hyperbole when describing the global impact Cubs fans think a title will have. I don't want to endure that, and nobody really does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The parade was a quarter the size of any given Blackhawks and yea, Sox fans were happy and talked the expected amount of s*** you'd expect in a two-team town, but it wasn't crazy. It wasn't even as crazy as the Royals celebration this year. If you really think life in Chicago won't be affected in a negative way I don't know what to tell you. You really want Boston fans with twice the racism but half the accents running around here like they own the world? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
