Cub's curse

The Cubs have not won a world series for 100 years. Many believe that this would be their year, but their down 2-0 against Joe Torre's Dodgers, facing elimination. I believe the curse was a bar tender (Or something) wanted to bring his goat into a game many years ago, but was not allowed. Therefore, he placed a curse on the Cubs. Same thing happened to the Red Sox, but in 2004, they came back in dramatic fashion against the yankee's

to win the AL and 1st world series. However, i seriously dont think the cubs will win.......

That was in 1969 against the Mets, right?

The're down 2-0 in the series, so it's not looking good. But if not the phils, i would like to see chicago take on the rays, btu i can't decide who i'd liek to win. The cubs really need a win, but the rays have had an awsome year, tough call...

tough break for lifelong cubs fans. the cubs have a potent roster and i was rooting for them to finally win a WS up until they faced the blue crew. the dodgers also had a 20 year drought of not winning a playoff series with only 1 postseason win in the process the entire time... one team was destined to finally break their losing streak!

They have to get by the Sox Bosox or Angels first.

Yeah but have you seen how they've played the red sox! They've won 3 games above 500 this year when playing the Sox and have won every single game at Tropicana (they played one more there then at Fenway). They won the last two of the season at Fenway. They have home field advantage if they play the Sox, so it could happen! Not lookin' good the Angels unfourtenetly. Now that the Cubs (I couldn't choose who to route for, Torre's Dodgers or Pinella's cursed cubs. Its a hard choice for a Yankee fan) are swept, I'm routin' for a Rays and Dodgers world Series with a Rays win in 7. I just want to see quality baseball in the NL and the Rays beatin' up the Sox more then anything though.

well duh, you're a yankees fan!
rays are gonna beat the angels in 7 to get to the WS.
