Maybe rpb is just hateable and thinks it is his Cubbie fandom?

I am hateable but that's not the cause here.

It's not a negative to me. I grew up with it. It's fine. It'd be weird if Sox fans didn't hate.

It's pretty ironic that you are this persistent about the argument. It inherently makes your own argument weaker. You are what you project on to sox fans.

But I don't hate the Sox or root against them, soooo....not at all.

Well it's weird that you go in so much against their fans if you are indifferent to the team. This goes back to Frank's point about the denial of some cub fans.

It's just a topic I happen to know about that frequently gets misrepresented here.

You sound worse than usual. Maybe take a break.

I don't think it's been misrepresented by anyone. I wouldn't even say you and leash are misrepresenting it even though you're plainly wrong. Everyone's experiences are different. I guess yours blinded you to your bias. Not the worst thing in the world(that would be standing silently while RACISM happens right in front of you)

Do you realize that no Sox fans are agreeing with you other than the other one? Why do you think that is?

No Cub fans are agreeing with you except the other one as well. That reinforces my point. Most fans on either side don't give too much of a shit about this debate.

That wasn't your point. You're just making up new points.

The majority of both fan bases don't give too much of a shit about the other outside some friendly ball busting. That's just the plain truth. I get why it's fun to pretend otherwise though.

Frank Coztansa rule. That wasn't the argument.

Election night was like the Super Bowl to him.

I love the stuff like that he posted like 50 times in different threads.

leash and rpb,
Do you guys hate the White Sox?

I don't hate the Sox. I enjoy the occasional back and forth with fans but as others have said, hating the Cubs is a Sox fan badge of honor. "I have two favorite teams, the Sox and whoever is playing the Cubs" I hear that shit all the time and it mostly only goes one way. I'd put it at 80/20.

You literally have never heard that statement in your life.

FF is so unbelievably wrong. I could message all the Sox fans I'm friends with on Facebook and ask "do you hate the Cubs?" Response would be overwhelming yes. If I did the reverse it would be a lot of 'I don't hate them but I don't like them... I really hate the cardinals"

Maybe if he was actually a fan like Frank and Peeps and he would get it.

I have to be really careful about how I say this, and I don't want to create any unnecessary "undertones," but do you guys think that maybe we should just kinda let FF say whatever without retort? I don't want to cause unnecessary stress for him, and it's quite clear that he's not sound of mind.

He's on our side. He just thinks it's not as big of a difference as I do.

I know it's not as big a difference. 60-40 at best. In 2005 it was probably closer to 50-50.

The Cubs hatred of the Sox is more subtle, and done in a way to try and make them feel like they are fans "the right way" by not caring.
