CubsSuck1 Posted October 16, 2003 Share Posted October 16, 2003 Now that its all over, I can loo back and say I was pretty scared that the Cubs might actually win the whole show. I have been a huge baseball fan for no more than 5 years and i wasn't really sure if they could pull it out or not. Baseball is definetly the sport where the underdog has the most chance of winning, not last years Angels. A team can suck one year and be unstoppable the next. If the Cubs won, it would have been hell. I have to go to school everyday with almost everyone rooting for the cubs and rubbing it in. People who know absolutley nothing about baseball are now cub fans because it seems like the cool thing to do. They play music at lunch at our school and every f***ing day since the cubs made the playoffs, they have put on that awful go cubs go song. TODAY I finally got some revenge on all those idiots. I'd never hear the end of it if the cubs were able to win it all, but luckily we had some help from those marlins :fthecubs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Critic Posted October 16, 2003 Share Posted October 16, 2003 People who know absolutley nothing about baseball are now cub fans because it seems like the cool thing to do. Whaddya mean "NOW"? How bout "ever since EVER"? I had some concern that if they got there, they'd find a way to win the whole thing. With the starting pitching they have ( until they all got overused - THANKS, DUSTY! ), they can potentially take any series. But in the end, it came down to Cubs Simply Being Cubs and all is right with the world again... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YASNY Posted October 17, 2003 Share Posted October 17, 2003 I was scared until the Bartman play, then I knew the Curse was still in effect. The Cubs were toast from that moment forward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Lopez Ghost (old) Posted October 17, 2003 Share Posted October 17, 2003 I wasn't scared they'd win the World Series, but I was really worried about them just getting into the Series. Even as late as the Alou homer in game 7, I figured they were gonna make it, and that would have been terrible for all Sox fans. In the Series I thought the Cubs would have had a better chance against the Bosox than the Yankees. But Cub nation would never have let us forget "We made the Series, we support our team, and like, you suck!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al Lopez Ghost (old) Posted October 17, 2003 Share Posted October 17, 2003 Until the second game of next season when they outdraw us. No wait, I'm wrong. You ain't heard crap talk until their Cubfest stinks up the town! It'll be brown and rolling down the streets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackjack29 Posted October 17, 2003 Share Posted October 17, 2003 I can honestly say that after the Cub's #1 fan made his presence known, I knew there was no chance in hell the cubs would win the series. You could not have written a better script. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cwsox Posted October 17, 2003 Share Posted October 17, 2003 I was scared until the Bartman play, then I knew the Curse was still in effect. The Cubs were toast from that moment forward. I wouldn't say 'scared' but gravely concerned - and perhaps partially resigned to that horror - until that moment, as you so correctly say - any team should have been able to recover, just get the batter out on an upcoming pitch - but this was the cubs - you knew the cubs would collapse like a goat at a Greek barbeque it screamed "historic flop begins now" - it was label "choke now has arrived" - it sang "instant karma's gonna get you" - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steaming Willy Harris Posted October 17, 2003 Share Posted October 17, 2003 I felt like that lasat year when the Cyclones beat the Hawkeyes...that was huge. Please dont ever mention that again, that still hurts to think about. I outright stopped watching baseball because i was so convinced the Cubs would be in the world series, it upsetted me quite a bit but with the whole Bartman think i couldnt be happier to have something to rub in all my friends faces for years to come.

SuperSteve Posted October 17, 2003 Share Posted October 17, 2003 I was scared until the final out was recorded. They did have a nice lead in the NLCS and it seemed like everything was falling their way. We had expected the Braves to kill them, but they didn't. I am just glad they are done.
