Life in a Cubbies world.

There are Sox fans who will tell you that this is a kind of class warfare, that they are the blue-collar, "real" baseball fans, while the Cubs are supported by a very large group of Yuppies and dilettantes, people who have merely caught onto a trend, albeit a trend that has had unfortunate staying power.

This is, of course, a generalization. There are Cubs fans who are every bit as salt-of-the-earth, basic ball fans as the next person. There are also Cubs fans who are Yuppies and dilettantes. The precise numerical breakdown of these two groups is not absolutely known, but the unquestionable fact is that, one way or the other, Cubs fans greatly outnumber Sox fans.

Pretty good article setting up the Cubs vs Sox rivalry.
