50 CURSED FRANCHISES
1. Chicago Cubs
1908
Curse of the Billy Goat
At least their fans are far less whiny and self-loathing than Red Sox Nation.
2. Chicago White Sox
1917
Curse of the Black SoxThrowing the World Series in 1919? Hey, maybe they deserve to be cursed forever. Yay! Actually, it's pretty nice not to have to see the BoSox on the "cursed" list anymore. It's refreshing to get a break from all the B and C-List celebs like Ben Affleck and Jimmy Fallon bitching about "their boys".
And naturally ESPN gets it wrong about the Cubs and takes a shot at the Sox. Cubs, "Less whiny"? Not even CLOSE.
