Is this what being a Sox fan means?

To me, the Royko quote posted by cwsox pretty well sums it up. Just reverse the teams and it's most accurate.

 

One other thing, Royko was one of the few respectable Cub fans.

Look they are even dropping back to the attendance thing with the Marlins.

 

You may win your 2nd World Series in 10 years but we have better attendance.

I've always said that Cub "fans" are more concerned with Wrigley, attendance, and beer more so than winning. I like beer as much as the next guy but Miller Lite is hardly the reason why I go to USCF .

 

Posts like this just prove my theory.

They serve Old Style at Wrigley, don't they?

 

I've never tried the stuff, but I've heard that it is s***ty-ass beer. Perfect for s***ty-ass fans.

 

As far as the attendance issue if concerned regarding the Cubs high attendance.....I personally find that kind of funny that Cubs fans show up when their team is losing. Does that not tell you that they do not care whether the team wins or loses? I would still follow the team and support the team win or lose.....but part of that is because I love the White Sox, no matter the decisions they make. However, if I could attend games on a regular basis, and they do not want to give me as a fan a good product, I will give them a one-finger salute(seen here :fyou ), and I wouldn't attend as many games as I could....save a little cash. To me, that signifies the typical fan....and I'd consider myself a fairly typical fan....if I lived within range to the ballpark, I would go to a few games a year, but if they sucked, I wouldn't go to as many. Get what I'm saying?

 

So technically, you cannot call Cubs fans fairwhether fans. I still do though

I'd say it's more about Cub fans than the Cubs themselves. If you live in Chicago you've probably gotten a lot of crap from Cubs fans and now you can go to work/school tomorrow and tell them all to f*** off.

 

Been there, done that. It wasn't well received at work OR at school. Needless to say, there are some "Chatty Cathys" at work and at school. None of them said much of anything on Thursday. They were in some kind of a shock or trance.

 

At least they finally SHUT UP.

Any Wrigley crowd of 30,000 has about 8,000 baseball fans and 22,000 fans of beer, sunshine, a neighborhood of bars and the opposite sex. When they say "At least we support our team" one of the correct replies is, "No, you just like being at Wrigley Field. If you put your dear Cubbies at U.S. Cellular would you follow them there?" See how many people say yes.
