<i>Vast</i> majority? I'm actually not sure if we can agree on that. Most (not all) of the Cubs fans I know are either indifferent to the series or dislike it. I'd much rather see a Cubs/Cards game than a Cubs/Sox game -- and most (not all) Cubs fans I know feel the same.

Just because I would rather see a Cubs/Cards game than a Cubs/Sox game doesn't mean I wouldn't be upset if the Cubs/Sox games were eliminated. Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't exactly go cry in my pillow. But I have to admit, although there's not really a logical reason for it, I'm a little more interested when a Cubs/Sox series rolls around.

I've already said that I know there are people like you. I'm just not sure you represent the vast majority.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
People like me as in out of towners?
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
No. People like you who like the Cubs/Sox series.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Oh, I'm the idiot. I gotcha.
Seriously though, it's not that I'm looking forward to Cubs/Sox right now. There has been times when I know the Cubs are going to lose against the Sox and just want to find a hole to hide in. However, most of the time I do enjoy watching Cubs/Sox. Maybe it's because I have some civil Sox fans that I can discuss the game with.
