On Oct. 24, 2016, at the start of the World Series between Cubs and Indians, ESPN showed a graphic comparing titles won in each city in previous 25 years.

For Chicago, they listed 6 by Bulls, 3 by Hawks, 1 by Bears, and completely forgot the White Sox.

Today, exactly a year later, they posted a graphic stating that this year's Dodgers are only the 2nd team in the wild card era, along with 1998 Yankees, to enter the WS with fewer than two losses, again forgetting the Sox, who finished the postseason 11-1.

Love it!

Nobody remembers. Nobody cares. :)

It's funny, because it's the Sox. It's also pretty pathetic that the "world wide leader" in sports can't get a simple fact check correct.

What you lookin' at? You all a bunch of fuckin' assholes. You know why? You don't have the guts to be what you wanna be? You need people like me. You need people like me so you can point your fuckin' fingers and say, "That's the bad guy." So... what that make you? Good? You're not good. You just know how to hide, how to lie. Me, I don't have that problem. Me, I always tell the truth. Even when I lie. So say good night to the bad guy! Come on. The last time you gonna see a bad guy like this again, let me tell you. Come on. Make way for the bad guy. There's a bad guy comin' through! Better get outta his way!

Too many Cubs Fans have this inferiority complex that they have to keep mentioning how popular they are and how unnoticed the White Sox are.

This thread is stupid and has nothing to do with the Cubs.
