Cubs lose again

By Kenneth Rainey. Filed under: OffTopic.

The 1908 Chicago Cubs. World Champions!The Cubs 99-year streak of keeping Chicago’s North Side utterly uncontaminated by World Series Championships has been extended by at least one more year. But rather than wallow in misery, let’s take a moment to celebrate the gents who brought both a National League Pennant and a World Series championship to old West Side Park. So here they are. Congratulations, boys.

The photograph is from the old Chicago Daily News archive, which you can browse through the American Memory Project.
