I forgot, my "real" favorite championships were my daughter winning three state championships in soccer and my son winning one in hockey. My son's was the school's first championship playing against all schools in the state. They had won a couple prior in private school division. Even better was a school of 250 beating three schools at state with over 2k in student body.
Likewise, I am pretty fond of the gold medal my daughter won last week in the National Junior Olympics.

Thanks.  Water polo, so team event.  But she was the only member of the team to play every minute in every game (because she is the goalie!).

That is no small feat winning the USAWP JOs. Congrats!

Welcome to Cubfandom 101.

The real baseball fans in Illinois are loyal. They expect their team to win. And while the team does not always win every year, wanting to win is an important attribute of a good baseball fan. Getting restless when your team is .500 or worse is a sign of expectation.

Cub fans understand not word of this. Yeup, the Cubs are good right now and we, the real baseball fans of Illinois, can appreciate it and truly hate it at the same time. We know that you can put the Lakeview Little League on the field at Wrigley and draw 30,000 people. Most true Cub fans probably would not know the difference. Heck, half of yesterday's attendance at Wrigley probably doesn't know the difference between a baseball bat and an iPhone.

We real baseball fans in Illinois wear RED!

I knew a number of people at MU who became Cubs fans because they wanted to be a part of them eventually winning the World Series. So annoying

top 5 worst sports fan bases in the world:

1 cubs and it's not even close
2 vadgers
3 cardinals
4 notre dame
5 viqueens

though the brewers fans might jump to 1 for giving a guy a standing ovation for being a racist.

A SF Giant fan was killed after a game in the parking area of Dodger stadium a few years back.

Congrats to your daughter!  And to her justifiably proud father!

Go to a sporting event in Oakland and you may change your mind.

Indeed, and any list of worst fans that excludes Philadelphia is simply wrong

Your username has much irony to it after publishing that list.  TOTAL bias

having said that the cubs fans are the worst fan base in the world.
