One of my long time Cub fan friends was talking dynasty. I was like baseball is by far the hardest sport to truly have a dynasty. There is the Yankees but even that's fading. Talent rises and leaves for other teams. They'll have good teams but multiple world series victories? I think not. With all the times the Braves made the series in the 90's they only walked away with one championship. And yes the 05 Sox were epic. I made a casual joke on my fb about how the Sox were 11-1 in 05 while the Cubs were 11-6 this year and got a ton of shit for it, mostly by new 'not from Chicago' fans. I sure hope the fans don't lose their sense of humor or the spirit of the Sox/Cubs rivalry.
