CAN THE CHICAGO CUBS FOLLOW IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF THE RED SOX AND WHITE SOX AND END THEIR WORLD SERIES DROUGHT?

BetCRIS Sportbook Posts Odds on the Which of the Top Five MLB Franchises with the Longest Droughts will Win a World Series First

November 1st, New York ? It took the Boston Red Sox 86 years the break the ?Curse of the Bambino? and the White Sox 88 years to break the ?Curse of the Black Sox,? but who will be the next Major League Baseball franchise to overcome their long droughts without a World Series title?

Currently the Chicago Cubs franchise has the longest standing drought in MLB having not won the World Series in 97 years dating back to 1908. Others include the Cleveland Indians, 57 years, The San Francisco Giants, 51 years, the Texas Rangers, 44 years, and the Houston Astros, 43 years.

Executives at BetCRIS Sportsbook posted odds on which one of the leagues top 5 longest droughts will finally win a World Series title:

WHICH TEAM OF THE CURRENT TOP 5 LONGEST DROUGHTS WILL WIN THEIR NEXT WORLD SERIES?

o CHICAGO CUBS ? 1908, 97 YEARS 3.2 to 1
o CLEVELAND INDIANS ? 1948, 57 YEARS 2.5 to 1
o SAN FRANCISCO GIANTS ? 1954, 51 YEARS 4 to 1
o TEXAS RANGERS ? 1961, 44 YEARS 5 to 1
o HOUSTON ASTROS ? 1962, 43 YEARS 1.8 to 1

?It?s always a special thing to see a franchise break a long standing drought, especially in dramatic fashion as both the Red Sox and White Sox have done in back-to-back seasons,? said Mickey Richardson, CEO of BetCRIS.com. ?The Cubs have gone the longest without a World Series win at the moment. Wouldn?t it be something to see three droughts broken in three seasons??

Nope ...here is what happend !

In 2003 before the season started the baseball Gods looked down on the 3 worst teams to ever plauge the game . The Cubs ....The Red Sox ....and The White Sox . After Much debate they decided they must interveen . Well The last team we saw just win the WS 2005 your favorite and mine the WORLD CHAMPION CHICAGO WHITE SOX !! :mj14: :clap:

All praise the Baseball Gods ! Many thanks for getting us out of that rut !!!


Now we go back to 2004 ... who won the 2004 WS ? .....Holy Smokes Boston got their chance and capitalized !! WOOT WOOT Congrats Boston !!! :mj14:

That brings us to the cubbies :mj07: well their chance was in 2003 and they couldnt be saved from themselves even with the help of the baseball gods :mj07:
Maybe its that clown outfit they try to pass off as a uniform ?? :mj07: Maybe bad Karma being they are the only team in baseball that has the balls to scalp their own tickets ? :cursin:

Sorry but everybody you know and their children will be taking a dirt nap long before the Cubs have a hope in hell to even make it to the WS let alone win one . Pretty obvious based on them getting so close and than selling out their fans again with a
team for the last 2 years that didnt have a chance in hell of winning anything . Its amazing the cub fans didnt revolt after seeing the opening day roster the last 2 years :mj07: ..expect more of the same .

Never forget this conversation with my father :

Son : Dad can we go see a baseball game ??

Dad : Sure son I will get some tickets and we will go see a Sox game !

Son : what about the cubs ?

Dad : You said you wanted to see a baseball game right ?

Son : Yep !

Dad : Well son if you want to see a baseball game we will go see the White Sox ...if ya want to see the Circus your mother can take you to the Cubs game !

Amazing the Wisdom of that man just Amazing !! :mj14:
