Just realized that the Cubs 5 year window is now closed, and Buzz can official participate in the Bitch and Moaning next year. Snags, you are exempt, congrats! Guess that means the Cards are on the clock as being the X franchise that's gone the longest without winning (we are ignoring the Orioles, because they are the Orioles).
I will start bitching and moaning the minute the Braves start breaking this team up. Ideally, you're thinking, "Hey, they just won the WS and get Acuna back next year. Why change it up?" That ain't happening. Hell, even Freeman is a free agent now. If I had to guess, I'd say he finishes his career in Atlanta. But if a big market team comes calling with mucho dinero, he may want to see how he looks in Dodger blue. I've even thought it wouldn't be too far fetched to see him in a Cubbies uni in 22'.
I'd better stop. I'm getting pissed already.
Now that you mention it, Jar, all 3 of our franchises have put on a ring within the last decade. Didn't the Cards win it in 2011?
And yeah, the Orioles.
