Cubs fans are optimistic

Once the Boston Red Sox finally won the World Series in 2004 after a LONG hiatus, every baseball fan turned their attention to the Chicago Cubs. When will the Cubs win the Series? Well, the Cubs are one step closer to ending their drought after clinching the National League Central over the weekend.

1908 was the last year the Cubbies were champions of baseball. Cubs fans hope 2008 can be just as magical.

Unfortunately for Cubs fans, history has not been kind to their team. There has been the curse of the billy goat, the black cat and Steve Bartman. But many Cubs fans think this is the year. It’s their time and their season. Fans in Chicago know that the Cubs have the talent and the pitching staff to win. Yet, it’s actually the Cubs that seem to beat themselves.

Soon we will find out what is in store for those fans on the North side of Chicago.
