Baseball game between two colleges -- still the place was packed!

At the Reference Desk with an Eye on a Couple of Things

Chicago Cubs Win Central Division

Talk about baggage! The Chicago Cubs "clinch" the Central Division and the Sun-Times has to remind us of the following unhappy legacy:

"...[P]layers insisted this is only the beginning of their quest to end 98 years of empty and heartbreaking Octobers."

"98 years of empty and heartbreaking Octobers"? Who wants to hear this? Bring on the Parties! Break out the kegs! On to October!

Go Cubs!

 

Once a Cub's fan, always a Cub's fan. It's a fact of life on the North Side of Chicago.
