• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Chicago Sports fans can appreciate

....Poor Ernie Banks,.....aka Mr. Cub. Never tasted the sweetness of a National League Pennant or World Series Championship. He certainly deserved so nevertheless. Along with countless Cub fans who went to their reward without experiencing those victories either.
...If I check my dismal facts for a moment,....ahhhh,...let's see,...the Cubbies LAST won the pennant in 1945. Heck,...WWII had just ended. And the last time they won the World Series was 1908. And Henry Ford was certainly proud of his Model T rambling around on rutted roads throughout the US.
As the ol' Chicago sports announcer,...Jack Brickhouse,...once commented: "Hey,...anybody can have a bad century!"
