When is it too late to say it's still early for the Cubs? Try now. Their magic number is 1998, at least until it becomes 1999, but in lieu of a present, they offer you a future.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I really want to see the Cubs in the World Series. I really do.
I would want to go to the future, 25 years in the future, and see if the Cubs ever win a World Series.
I have great memories of being a Cub, and I'm happy building new ones with the Phillies.
One thing you learned as a Cubs fan: when you bought you ticket, you could bank on seeing the bottom of the ninth.
People ask me a lot about the values I got from playing for the Cubs for so many years. The value I got out of it was patience. A lot of people these days are not very patient.
I just appreciated so much the contract they gave me, and I wanted to give something back to the Cubs' organization.
Every player should be accorded the privilege of at least one season with the Chicago Cubs. That's baseball as it should be played - in God's own sunshine. And that's really living.
I'm looking forward to working for the 'Tribune' because any company that can invest in the Chicago Cubs has a view of the future we cannot begin to comprehend.
The Cubs are due in sixty-two.
The Cubs are gonna shine in sixty-nine.
