But who cares? Unlike the Red Sox and the Cubs, they weren't/aren't cursed.
They Just Suck! Not to mention, this is what you get when you try to fix the World Series...
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!
