For the first time in 100 years the Cuns are returning to post season play two years in a row. That stat alone paints an accurate picture of how much suffering dedicated Cubs fans subject themselves to year after year in support of their sad sack lovable Cubbies.
Now fans can turn their attention across town to the South Side and see if the Sox can too pull out the pennant and giving Chicagoans a taste of something theyve never had in this city of two baseball teams, a cross town AL NL World Series.
In memory of the legend Harry Cary here is an original rendition of Harry singing the Happy and lovable drunk version of Take Me Out To The Ballgame, and it's on to the next step and I'll tell you if the Cubs should make it to the World Series and Win It, The Apocalypse can't be far behind.

This time they expect a few more postseason games than the four they played against the New York Yankees that year in getting swept in the Babe Ruth called-shot World Series.
