I have liked the Cubs for years, although I am not a big fan of baseball or any other sport, and they have always been the lovable losers of baseball. The " curse of the billy goat " has been blamed as the reason that they can't seem to win, but I am unaware of its origin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
