HI

I am a new cubs fan, I dont know anything about baseball, have never watched a full game, i chose the cubs b/c i have family in chicago and you guys have this guy with a funny name.

So what should i do to be a good fan and learn stuff about baseball, I feel excited about the new season even though I know nothing.


GO CUBS!!

Hey I love the honesty and the pure ignorance.

At least you didn't come in here pretending you've been a fan since you were born.

If you're going to be a Cub fan you have to know Cub history like you lived it yourself. Lets be honest, nobody has lived through all of the Cubs misery, but if you have a good number of years under your belt you can pretty much know the feeling of past/current fans.


oh yea... Jacque Jones.
