Remember the Toronto craziness<\/a>? Well… that same craziness that consumed Toronto is now consuming Chicago; and, I’m told that Cubs fans have been waiting a very very long time to see their team win. 108 years to be exact. The last time they were in the playoffs was in 1945. <\/p>\n

This means that many many Chicagoans were born, lived, grew old, and died without ever seeing their team win! One co-worker said as she left the office, “I’ve been waiting my whole life for this.”<\/p>\n
