It's high time the cursed Cubs win it all. It was, and still is, the longest drought in Baseball History, without winning a World Series championship since 1908 - hell, they haven't even played in one in over half a century!
By the way, if anyone is interested, each of the following teams have gone atleast 25 years without a World Series (Note: only most current 'curse' listed):
CHICAGO CUBS (96 years)
Last World Series Championship: 1908
Last Visit to the World Series: 1945
CHICAGO WHITE SOX (87 years)
Last Championship: 1917
Last Visit World Series: 1959
BOSTON RED SOX (86 years) (REVERSED, 2004)
Prior to 2004:
Last Championship: 1918
Last Visit: 1986
MINNESOTA TWINS/WASHINGTON SENATORS (63 years) (REVERSED, 1987)
Prior to 1987:
Last Championship: 1924
Last Visit: 1965
CLEVELAND INDIANS (56 years)
Last Championship: 1948
Last Visit : 1997
SAN FRANCISCO/NEW YORK GIANTS (50 years)
Last Championship: 1954
Last Visit: 2002
ATLANTA/MILWAUKEE BRAVES (38 years) (REVERSED, 1995)
Prior to 1995:
