So, are we aiming for the Boston model of "Let's become really, really annoying assclown fans so that people are rooting for us to win just so we'll stop being annoying assclowns?"
(And yes, I recognize that perhaps "become" is a bit inaccurate.)
You know, I'm probably the worst Cub fan in the history of Cub fans.
I hate other fans, and I hope an un-manned spy plane crashes into the stadium and destroys it so they will be forced to share a home with the White Sox. Man, that would be sweet.
I guess my one redeeming quality is my burning hatred for all things St. Louis Cardinals.....
Jerry, I'm right there with you. Wrigley fans give Cubs fans a bad name; gut the stadium and the problem disappears. And I'd like to take it one step further, recognizing that my next suggestion isn't dependent on the plane-crash scenario.
Allow me to re-introduce the Turd Plan.
Simply, the Cubs need to go out and sign/trade for the biggest headaches in the league (who happen to be really, really good.) Sign the roided-up Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens. Trade for Alex Rodriguez. What, Randy Johnson's a Grade-A pudwhack? He's now our fourth starter. Please enjoy Jeff Kent at second base.
(I'll grant this plan made more sense a few years ago, when these guys were actually good, but you get the point.)
Sign a bunch of indefensible players who help the team win. Wrigley fans will be up in arms that the team who plays on their field is a collection of douchebags and cocksockets, and Cubs fans will be celebrating with a World Series title.
I'll even shoot for the most realistic scenario. The new owners, enamored by the Cubs but even more enamored by money, decide that a new Wrigley is essential. After fighting with Daley about it's location, costs, and all sorts of other shady nonsense, they decide, "Screw it, we're building Wrigley II in Palatine."
Pushing the Cubs out to the suburbs would bring me endless joy from the yapping of the Wrigley-ites who became life long "Cubs fans" when they moved here in 2007 for their job after six years at Ohio State.
We'd then see who the real Cubs fans are and it would be much more tolerable when they eventually win it all.

I love your comments, both of you. I really do.
