Tell me then. What is it that makes you a cubs fan? The history? The wait? Your Dad took you do cubs games all of the time as a kid?

I was raised as a Cubs fan so that definitely has a big part to do with it, but I have grown to love the team more and more as time has gone on.  I know that this might sound a bit sick, but the losing history definitely adds a mystique to it.  I don't believe in curses but man some strange things have happened with that team over the years.  From billy goats to black cats to beer on Leon Durham's glove to Steve Bartman.  The list goes on and on. 

I guess that the Cubs are kind of a way for me to see that most of the time that life isn't perfect, but when things are good that they can be great.  It also helps you develop a strong sense of humor being a Cubs fan.

By the way, did you see what happened yesterday?  Carlos Marmol blew it yet again.  Word has it that the Cubbies are going to use another guy to close.  Who?  I dont know since we don't have anyone.
