NINETY-SIX YEARS AND COUNTING: SI makes it official, we Cubs fans have taken over the title of longest-suffering idiots now that the BoSox have won it all. Others on the list of the five most die-hard fans are fans of the Toronto Maple Leafs, Buffalo Bills, Clevelands teams, and the Texas Longhorns. Nary a mention of Philly's wildly successful teams on the list.
And speaking of the Sox, coming in the same year as a Pats Super Bowl and NFL-record winning streak, if Kerry wins Tuesday (and the fact that it is an if and not a when makes sob uncontrollably), you've got to reach to find another city having as good a year as old Beantown. Hell, even the Celtics and Bruins made the playoffs last spring and Mystic River won two Oscars. And say what you will about Ben Affleck, but he rebounds nicely.
