Cubs are my team, but man is this funny!

[CBT]

Friggin' Onion, this would be even funnier if it was about the White Sox. Joe will love this.

Lmao!!!!!!!! Hahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!
That's good stuff.


"There's nothing I can do as a manager that's going to make a difference," said Quade, who in between hitting ground balls to his infielders could be heard mumbling, "I hate my life." "Christ, am I really about to put myself through six excruciating months of tinkering with batting orders and pitching rotations as if we have a serious shot of ending a century of mediocrity? It's ****ed up, but the answer is yes. And hearing myself say that makes me feel like I'm having a massive anxiety attack."
"Every time I walk out to the mound I just assure the guys that at least we will all be dead eventually," Quade continued.
When asked to voice their thoughts on the hopeful promise of Opening Day, several Cubs responded with "Ugh," "Not this crap again," "Thanks for ruining a perfectly nice day, *******," "We're going nowhere," and "Please, make this nightmare stop."
Despite the rampant cynicism and despair coming from the Cubs' clubhouse, team president Crane Kenney remained optimistic, saying there was still hope that a wealthy investor would eventually buy the franchise and mercifully shut it down for good.

Go White Sox!!!

You know... I'm a White Sox Fan and I give Cub fans a hard time, but I'd never root against them because they're still a Chicago team. Sounds like they've given up before they even fought what a shame.
LOSERS!
What a waste of money, thank God I'm a SOX fan... ALL IN!

That's the very first time I've ever heard a Sox fan say that.

Baseball is baseball because it has a reverance for history. True th Cubs haven't won a world series in over 100 years. But they also have never thrown or fixed a World Series, not all Chicago Baseball teams can claim that.

KaPoww!!!

I (white sox all the way) say it all the time. Mainly because they're still Chi-Town. The cubs are also more globally known than the Sox as the Chicago baseball team, even though the classic White Sox logo can be spotted on many more hats everywhere all over the world..like in Cali ..but also I think I would feel lucky to see the Cubs win a series in my lifetime, cause who knows if it would happen again.

No offense, but I find most Sox fans ornery cusses.

I love baseball and will watch any game, Cubs, Sox, Mets, who ever. But I do not want the Cubs to ever win a World Series. I think it would be way cool and funny to keep the no World Series victory alive for another 500 years. But the White Sox won in 05 so the world can come to an end tomorrow and I would be ok.

You have to get to a World Series first to even think about throwing one- KABBBOOOOOMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!

I read this after being a Cubs fan since 1969. Watching endless games of almost winning (the Cardinals who I HATE SO MUCH) from the 70's and 80's who always beat the cubs with those ground ball hits that a 3rd grader would hit!

But then I read this BS on these spoiled, and don't give a damn jerks who are on this team and I want to throw up! When a manager says the things he said they should fire the entire team and bring up the double A team to give them a shot!

Thank God I live in Atlanta where I can see real baseball with a team that performs well most every year. Maybe someday 2012! The Cubs will finally win the World Series but probably not in my life time!

God did that tick me off!!!!

Thanks for sharing! :<)

I think the Onion is a satirical type of newsletter and those comments were made up! I am sure they (Cubs) would not say things like that.

I will now go to my box and feel shame

Thats the worst part about being a Cubs fan, thats the comment that will always shut us down

[dakslim]

Even though I'm a die hard Cubs fan...that was too funny. I bet some of them really think that way. Here's a newspaper cartoon that I clipped years ago. A lot of truth to it.
