Funny, I am a "sidewalk" Cubs fan, too, in the sense that I have lived in Atlanta all my life. When I was growing up, all Cubs games were broadcast nationally on WGN, so that played a role in it. I actually became a fan during one of their random good years in '89. But I think a certain percentage of folks gravitate toward an underdog. The Cubs are the flip side of the coin to the Yankees, really. Oddly, my interest in Cubs' baseball has waned a bit since 2016. It's like, where do we go from here?
