Cubs

We all know the words. ~~~Go Cubs, Go.... Go, Cubs, Go. Hey, Chicago, what do you say. The Cubs are gonna win today~~~. Folks have been singing this song for over a week now, since the Cubbies won the World Series. And downloading it too...

If you're going to see the Cubs during spring training this year, be careful where you park.

If the folks at USA Today are correct, the best baseball will be played in the NL Central again this year.

In 2015, the Cubs finished with 97 wins but placed 3rd in their division.  The North Siders are projected to only finish with 93 wins in 2016, but have the best record in baseball.

Don't ever say I won't follow through on a bet.
