if cubs fans showed a little humility maybe they wouldn't be the laughing stock of professional sports.
You are so fucking stupid it's literally mind-blowing. I'm supposed to be humble as a fan? And how would you suggest I show this humility?
Am I proclaiming them 2016 champs? Nope
Do I think they just won the division? Yep
Do I think they're the best team in baseball right now? Yep
Do I think this team is perfect? Nope
Do I think they are the rightful favorites this year? Yep
Do I think they are unbeatable? Nope
Do I recognize that even as heavy favorites there is still a <25% chance they win it all this year? Yep
Do I recognize that they haven't won a WS in 108 years? Yep
What else do you want me to say?
You want me to "tone down" my fandom? Fuck you. I've started all of like 2 threads this year about the Cubs. If the Reds went from cellar to best team in baseball I'm quite sure we'd be dealing with at least that much from you.
5teamhomo keeps bumping threads and talking shit, so I'm gonna remind him of the current standings. But I don't see any Cubs fan crowning anyone yet.
This whole bit you keep bringing up that Cubs fans owe you some kind of humility, like they should be walking around with their head hanging low, is fucking dumb. You're just saying words and hoping they stick.
