I had a difficult time voting in this poll for the simple reason being that there isn't a "Chicago" option.
Yeah, I hate Denver. Yeah, I hate Oakland. Sandy Eggo...meh, yeah...whatever.
But the Chicago Cubs???? Their fans are the ****ing WORST!!! They are delusional, obnoxious, repulsive and deserve every bit of failure that they've endured over the years. The Cubs and their despicable fan base literally are the reasons I am a Chiefs fan today...because my dad (a die-hard Cardinal fan) tried encouraging me to be a Bears fan and at like age 7 or 8, I caught on to the fact that the Bears fan base was pretty freaking similar to the Cubs fan base who I fought with and argued profusely with on a daily basis at recess. This is what prompted me to select my favorite team via looking at the back of a cereal box that had photos of every NFL team's logo/helmet...and by process of elimination, I became a Chiefs fan because I thought their logo/helmet was the coolest. At the end, it was between the Chiefs and Bengals.
I hate to say this because it is ridiculous... but when I meet someone and one of the first things I learn about them is that they are a Cub fan...I literally have a much, much more difficult time trying to force myself to even like them personally when compared to when I meet the usual Packers fan, Yankees fan or even Donk or Raider fan. I freaking hate them...
Roughly once every other day, my 2 year old daughter will look at me and say, "I HATE the Cubs, Daddy!!!" Now, "hate" shouldn't be encouraged when parenting a 2 year old (she'll be 3 in 2 weeks) in any way, shape or form...I am well-aware of that. But I can't help myself...I despise the Cubs so much, I resort to being a bad daddy and replying to these statements that come out of her mouth by saying coldly, "that's good. The Cubs stink."
My wife was a Cubs fan until we began dating. I seriously told her that she had to stop being a Cubs fan or else there was no way in hell things would work out between the two of us. She reluctantly agreed to jump ship, became a Cards fan and now she is just as much or more of a rabid Cardinals fan than I am.... and she's hot as hell.
