The Chicago Cubs lost their bid to the World Series last night when they lost to the Arizona Diamondbacks 3 straight games in a best of 5 series (3-1, 8-4, 5-1). As always, the Cubs fan had high hopes for their favorite team and yet again the team disappoints them and the curse of the Billy goat lives on. The last time the Cubs had won the World Series was in 1908 and that was almost 100 years ago!!!Both Jim & I are big Cubs fans, Jim even so since that was where he was born. Every year we would go their spring training games which happens to be not far from where we live in Mesa as well as during the regular season when they come here to play the Arizona Diamondbacks. Every year we would hope that they would do well and be in the playoffs but every year they disappoint us. This year looked like they might be able to make it since Lou Piniella took over as their manager and yet again they disappoint us. The Cubs players have more experience than the Diamondbacks and still....they disappoint us. As a true Chicago Cubs fans, Jim & I will still root for them no matter how bad they do. Lets hope next year is our year. It will be 100 years after all.......
