Another from WSI. Go Marlins. These cubs fans have become insuffereable.

 

Stop the madness.

Since this is the Sox fan support thread, I'll throw my two cents in about the Chicago baseball rivalry and why it's so important for us that the Marlins take out the Baby Blue losers.

 

My grandfather was born after the Sox won their last World Series (1917), lived his entire life, and died without ever seeing them win one. My dad is nearing 60, was in high school when they last made the Series (1959), and hasn't seen one since. Me? I just turned 30. I've seen all of 3 Sox playoff appearances in my lifetime (83, 93, 2000). In those 3 years, the Sox won a grand total of ZERO home games. And the scary thing is, I'm one of the lucky ones. Yes, 1 postseason every 10 years is about as good a ratio as there is for any living White Sox fan right now. To say this team doesn't win much is putting it mildly.

So how do we deal with all this losing? It aint easy, that's for sure. The Red Sox have turned their eons of losing into some epic, pseudo-poetic myth. The Curse of the Bambino and all that crap. And they never tire of telling you about it, either. If they ever do win it all you have to wonder if they'd even be happy about it; their whole identity would be gone. The Cubs have done something even more nauseating - turned losing into something cute.

"We're the Lovable Losers." "Isn't losing cute, tee hee."

No it isn't, you morons.

This is what we see on a daily basis and a big reason so many of us hate the Cubs.

Meanwhile, we as Sox fans suffer. In silence. We won't talk your ear off about how miserable things are (how many casual baseball fans have any idea that our championship drought is actually LONGER than Boston's?). And we sure as heck don't think losing is cute. "Wait 'til next year" is not in our vocabulary. We just want to win, period. One of the few things that make Sox losing bearable is that the Cubs have managed to screw up far worse than us. The Sox may not win anything important, but at least we usually field a decent team, better than the Cubs. The Cubs haven't managed back-to-back winning seasons since Nixon was in office. And only like 3 times since WW2. So you can see how horrid it is for us to see a team whose fanbase doesn't particularly care if they win or not suddenly pull a season like this out of their rear end. It's torture, plain and simple. And I haven't even said a word about how the Chicago/national media have gone into multiple Cubgasms already. That's just salt in the wound. So please Marlins, for all Sox fans alive and dead, as well as for the good people of Florida,

BEAT THE CUBS!!!

Another White Sox fan, jumping on the bandwagon.? Be thankful you'll never know the pain of being the second most liked team in your own city...

 

Go Marlins!?

uh, well the Marlins are clearly far behind the Dolphins down here....

 

but I know you meant baseball only...

 

 

Hey, all White Sox fans are hereby invited to a huge beach party if we beat the Cubs and go to the World Series.

 

Admin will be reserving an entire hotel on South Beach for us all! :thumbup

See you at the Clevelander! :thumbup

 

Count me in!! I'll actually be vacationing in Miami from 10/23 thru 10/26. I know the town will be swept up in WS fever, Miami style!!

oh hell yes! i want to party this october. can't wait for spring training either ... road trip to jupiter!!

Jupiter, I may come down for that. :cool

 

Oh, and HotCorner. shhh!!!

ChiSox only touched upon a few of the reasons why Sox fans hate their northside rivals.

 

Cub fans are some of the worst you'll ever encounter. When they invade Florida for the playoffs, be ready for their obnoxious, self-righteous and moronic behavior. Remember that these idiots still idolize scammin' shammy sosa--a liar, steroid-laden wife-beater and cheater.

 

Sox fans had a field day when Corky sosa came to White Sox park last June. Corky the Coward actually wore EARPLUGS so he wouldn't hear the "cheater" chants. Cub fans' fascination with, and adoration of, Corky is pathetic.

 

--------------------

GO MARLINS!!!!!

bleh Corky is an oaf. he's not even a real oaf, he had to use roids to get that way. now that's just sad. second hand oaf -_-

Excuse my ignorance, but where do the Marlins play? In Miami, a suburb of Miami, or a different city?

2003 Chicago cubs baseball...cheating with corked bats, spitting in umpire's faces, racial slurs by the manager and ticket scams run by the organization itself.

 

Florida, please to the world a favor and beat these punks.

I heard the bandwagon was filling up fast so I didn't want to miss it!!

 

GO MARLINS!!!

How big is this bandwagon anyway?

 

Go Fish.

Excuse my ignorance, but where do the Marlins play? In Miami, a suburb of Miami, or a different city?

Ouch man, show a little love to our new friends. They play in Miami at Pro Player Stadium, formerly Joe Robbie Stadium.

I have personally dealt with these idiots when they came down for our series in July after the Break. They suck, I've hated the team ever since then.

 

And JRS (I refuse to call it by its scam name) is located on the county line between Miami-Dade and Broward Counties. About a 30-45 minute drive from where I live.

 

Oh, and it being my house, JRS stands for none other than Juanky Robaina Stadium . You are granted permission to visit as you please.

Dolphin Stadium is it's name, Being the Marlins home is it's game.

BEAT THE CUBS!!!

damn that s*** was deep

can some one please refresh my memory, What is the curse of the billy goat? i heard OF it but i just do not recall...

curse was that a farmer came to wrigley and paid for admission for 2. he entered the park with his goat and was ejected. he cursed the team and they haven't won a championship since.

silly farmers...

the guy just wanted to see a ballgame in the big city before going home! he was there to sell his goat at the market I believe.

can some one please refresh my memory, What is the curse of the billy goat? i heard OF it but i just do not recall...

The billy goat curse got started when someone tried to bring a live goat into the stadium and the cubs didnt let it in. Thus starting the curse. Since then they have brought live goats in on several occasions to try to remove the curse however we all know that the curse is still there as we will see for the next week
