Cub's fans are a good example for the future baseball fan in most markets. We all need to start enjoying the unique ways to be defeated.
Spring training is just starting and only a few teams have any real hope of competing. The team that made the bigest off-season moves is the Yankee's?
My local team is little more than the Washington Generals, waiting for its versions of the globetrotters to come to town and kick its butt.
I can't imagine baseball will be anything like it is now in 20 or 30 years. There simply won't be the fan $$ to support it.

Baseball needs a salary cap AND revenue sharing AND deaffiliation of minor league teams AND a relegation/promotion system. Then you'd freakin have something.
As a fan of an AL East team that is not NYY or BOS, I'm as disgusted as could be. Or, as Conan's audience would say, Go LEAFS!
