An Incurable Disease: Memories, Observations and Ravings from a Baby Boomer Cub Fan

There is no cure for what I have, but I've discovered ways to deal with it and first and foremost living as a Cub fan requires the ability to laugh it off-to look at the absurdity of it all and somehow enjoy it. Sure I get mad and frustrated and disgusted at how bad the Cubs (and our luck) have been through the half-century I have loved them, but I also cherish every bit of their history-as awful as much of it is. And you have to admit it Cub fans, once you accept the fact that you've spent your life rooting for a team that is synonymous with losing and you peel away all the layers of disappointment and frustration, there's some pretty funny shit in there. Enjoy the shit!
