Well, it's been 100 years since the Cubs last won the World Series, and the curse of the Billy Goat lives on. In fact, the Cubs will probably be cursed until 3008 and just as they're about to win the World Series against the Ganymede Elegies, Zapp Brannigan fires his Megadeth laser cannon at the Omicronians spaceship and instead blows up Wrigley Field.

CUBS failed yet again.

As a Cards fan, even I am somewhat saddened by this disappointment.

Red Soxfag here, grew up in the era of Sox fail but it was damn good to finally win. I feel bad for the Cubbies though, they've had to fail longer and harder than we ever did.

Maybe next year.

On paper, 97-64 > 84-78.

But in reality 84-78 > 97-64, even though Joe Torre doesn't have it in him anymore to win a world series, in this equation, the opposing team is interchangeable when it comes to postseason baseball against the completely innocuous epic failures known as the Chokeago Cubs.

It's guaranteed that you can effectively replace the Dodgers with a minor league franchise against the Cubs in post-season play, and the Cubs will lay down, ass up.

We're never going to win. Never. Fuck the bunch of gutless fags that we have. I hope Kos-K gets run over by a truck and I hope the Awfulnso Soriano learns what a strike zone is.

You do realize your team has done something it has only done one other time, regardless of how far those runs into the playoffs were, right? You're already shitting on your team's players because of 3 games, like it's the end of the world, and you'll magically be able to get better players out of nowhere.

You sir, are the reason the Cubs lose constantly. You don't appreciate what you have, and would rather cast blame on others, rather than the true cause:

SHITTY FUCKING CUBS FANS THAT DON'T SUPPORT THEIR TEAM WHEN THEY NEED TO.

You think the Cubs exit to make some stupid childhood dream come true, so you can feel like you won something. Guess what, even if the Cubs did win the world series, you're STILL a fucking loser. Them winning won't make your life worth living.

No, we're shitting on our team because they had their best record in 63 years, but can't win a game when it matters. They had the best offense in the NL (and the best runs-scored to runs-allowed ratio in the bigs), but scored only six runs in three games. The best starting pitching staff in baseball, but they averaged five innings per start. A consistent defense, but they played soccer (football to you Eurofags) with the ball. They have a leadoff batter who swings at every pitch. They have a right fielder who they're paying $48mm to ride the pine.

Shall I continue?

I've been a Cub fan my whole life, and I've never wanted to give up on them, not even in '03. But right now, if all of Wrigleyville burned to the ground, I wouldn't shed a tear.

We give them support. Soriano is a fucking asshole. He swung at pitches even a Little Leaguer wouldn't swing at. Then, there was the fact that we had to wacth the game on TBS not, WGN, not FOX, TBS. Those commentators fucking just made me want to kill a man. They were more biased than announcers for a crosstown team.
>> Anonymous
>>382027
The bias was one thing, but having to look at Frank Caliendo's fat fucking head every commercial break was the worst.

In fact, it's probably fitting now that I think about it. I think our Cubs are the Frank Caliendo of sports...

All year long we had to hear about how great the Cubs were, about how balanced their team was with power and average, about how not only do they have the best starting staff in the NL but also the best bullpen in the NL, and how Lou Pineilla was going to take this team to the promised land, and how inferior we were in every single way to the Cubs.

Well today we're still playing, and you fuckers aren't. Suck on that you espresso slurping hipster fucks.

What's another year when you've waited a hundred? Cheer up cubbies.

Looks like you'll have to wait until Steve Bartman to die before things look up for the Cubs.

And it must be a NATURAL DEATH, any successful murder/assassination will only make it worse

You bought into the claims that "This was the year" and that the Cubs finally had "The best pitching rotation" and "The best hitting lineup in baseball". That's your fucking fault. Your lineup has huge holes, your defense is shoddy, and your rotation is 2 pitchers deep.

The problem is, everyone in your god forsaken city starts the spring off thinking the Cubs roster is #1 in baseball, and gradually comes to terms with the reality. Instead of being smart about it, and cheering the fact that a bunch of scrubs did what they did, and hoping they do more, you're pissed they didn't live up to the hype.

NOBODY WILL EVER LIVE UP TO THE HYPE CHICAGO CUBS FANS SPOUT.

Seriously, that's the curse. Nobody will ever be good enough for you faggots. You're like Boston fans that think Manny didn't help that team get 2 rings. You think that Soriano plays terrible, and Fukudome wasn't worth shit. Fine, send them to my team, the Pirates. I'll take them with open arms over Brandon Moss and fucking Steve Pearce. I'd kill to have the pitching rotation you guys have. Hell, I'd kill to have a decent season every decade.

You guys are all or nothing fans. Either your team wins it all and you're happy, or they don't make it to the very end and succeed, and you've got fucking torches and pitchforks, ready to burn down whomever you decide is responsible.

Maybe players hate playing in your shitty town, because they know how terrible the fans are....

None of these retards has waited longer than 18 months. They all became Cubs fans at some shitty frat party. If you sucked each other's dicks, you got a hat with a C on it.

Dan Uggla's probably laughing right now on how cubsfans were blaming him for not getting the ws homefield advantage.

I didn't see the actual game, but I saw the highlights of Kuroda pitching, and it looked like the Cubs were wound up so tight, they were scared to swing the bats. Is that what happened?

Does "supporting their team when they needed to" magically make the pitchers find the fucking strike zone?
