Over a Century of Bad Chicago Cubs Baseball

As if 100 years wasn’t enough pressure

100 Years of Suckiness, Cubs Suck News, John Scheinfeld — By webmaster on Wednesday, March 12, 2008

So in the midst of this being the 100 year anniversary of the Cubs sucking, documentary filmmaker John Scheinfeld thought it would be a good idea to follow the Cubs for the 2008 season in “hope” that they win the World Series and he has a great movie.  The piece is called “We Believe”.

“It’s not a history of the Cubs,” Scheinfeld said Tuesday. “What we’re doing is a film exploring the love affair between the great city, Chicago, and it’s ball team, the Cubs — what makes Chicago unique, the city, and what makes the people of Chicago unique and why they have supported this team so passionately for so long. We’ll get into the psychology of that, the history of that.

“My challenge as a filmmaker is to find the right balance between Chicago and the Cubs.”

You are going to be following this team for many more years to come if you are waiting for that championship.  Oh it is going to be a fun year indeed!

Welcome to March 19 08. If there’s any justice, the Cubs should be eliminated from postseason play - again - on August or September 19 08.

Probably he will give up when he realizes the cubs don’t stand a chance after dropping about 50 out of 70 games.

Love affair? Is he joking? Does he really think that everyone in Chicago supports this team? Most Cubs fans aren’t even baseball fans. They just like to get drunk at Wrigley.
