Haven't the Cubs endured enough?

At least the Cubs have a good season every decade or so.

You should have nominated them when you had the chance, pal! Alas, now it is the Clippers' time to stand in the sun, and bask in the glory of sweet, sweet victory!

Congratulations, Clippers. Always remember, keep your feet on the ground, and keep reachin' for those stars!

The Cubs at least have a glimmer of hope.

Actually I challange you to have a run-off of Clippers vs. Cardinals.

Fine, use your alien trickery to hide behind public opinion.

The Clippers...

..At least the Cubs have a strong core of fans/followers that are truly interested in the team and come out and fill Wrigley Field.
What do the Clips have? Nothing... Just a amazingly bad Franchise History.. That's it..

CLIPS WIN, HANDS DOWN!
