so angry

Still the most popular team in the 3rd largest city in the country. Shit they are selling to tourists at the fucking airport is not representative of the cities' loyalties.

Cubs are what they put on the brochure.

You can see the same thing at the Target on Madison and State. Or any other Walmart or Target store in the city or the suburbs.

It's not just the paraphernalia. Even the Score last fall forgot the White Sox played in the World Series 12 years ago. To pretend this team isn't ignored when it's own flagship station ignored them isn't realistic.

Heck, even the owner of the team is mailing it in and just hiring trash the Cubs took out to the dumpster. It's embarrassing.

There are more Sox fans in the city. That is verifiable fact.

Fan survery's, Facebook maps, vanity license plate sales...when you want to actually look at metrics that only take into account people from Chicago the Cubs have a clear minority of fans.

You laugh, but you cannot refute any of it.

I laugh because you hate the Cubs so much that you are basing this speculation on facebook likes and vanity plates.

It is ridiculous. No one believes it.

But keep saying it. Maybe eventually you will actually really deep down believe it.

Vanity plates....

What's wrong with vanity plates?

Are you serious....First of all you have posted no proof with actual numbers showing anything.

Even if you did, vanity plates show nothing. Lets say you have a city block that has 20 families represented. 2 of them have vanity plates for the Sox. 1 has a vanity plate for the Cubs. That says nothing about the fandom of the other 17 homes on the block. You cannot say that the block has more Sox fans based on those numbers. It is all absurd

You laugh, but you cannot refute any of it.

I do enjoy how much this reality bothers the hell out of Cubs fans. I do suspect the Cubs may be able to narrow the lead a little against the White Sox after the World Series. The Sox might only be ahead by 4000 plates now!

He is not bragging about winning anything. He is saying that within Chicago city limits, the Sox are more popular than the Cubs. Nobody has ever posted anything to prove him wrong.

Yes, can't you tell how upset we are?

I'm more taken aback at how awful your "prove a negative" argument is than you bragging about winning the "license plate championship."

and literally every poll ever done of Cook County residents.

*I say Cook County becaue to my knowledge that is as small a jurisdiction that has been surveyed. The city itself never really has. But I can guess that if the Sox are more popular in Cook Co. that is probably because they are more popular in the city. Especially when we all know that some parts of the county (panhandle, north shore) are overwhelmingly pro-Cubs.

Pwned.

Pwned.
