The Big Chicago Divide

Walking down any given street in Chicago, you’ll probably notice the same thing over and over- the city is divided between the White Sox and the Cubs.

If your a Chicagoan, you’ve most likely gotten into a squabble about your favorite Windy City baseball team (unless you’re one of the smart people who say they’re a fan of both teams).  Insults get thrown at each other about players, team season performances, and of course, how long its been since certain teams have won certain championships.

I can’t lie.  I’m a pretty big Sox fan but that doesn’t mean I hate the Cubs.  If the Cubs ever make it to the World Series, I’d want them to win (unless they were playing the White Sox, of course).  It seems that if you’re on one side, you have to stick to that side and only that side, which can sometimes get you into squabbles about which team is better.

I’m pretty sure there will always be this city divide between the two baseball teams and their fans.  Even if there was a chance to settle the “dispute”, true fans will stick to their teams and keep fighting until they prove they reign champion (of Chicago, at least.)
