Cubs
Just in case we need to remember how bad it can be... here are 20 major events that have occurred since the Chicago Cubs last laid claim to a World Series championship:
1. Radio was invented. (Cubs fans get to hear their team lose)
2. TV was invented. (Cubs fans get to see their team lose)
3. Baseball added 14 teams. (Cubs fans get to see and hear their team lose to more clubs)
4. George Burns celebrated his 10th, 20th, 30th, 40th, 50th, 60th, 70th, 80th, 90th and 100th birthdays.
5. Halley's comet passed Earth - twice.
6. Harry Caray was born... and died. Incredible, but true!
7. The NBA, NHL, NFL, IHL, and ISL were formed.
(Each of those Chicago teams have each won championships)

10. There were 11 amendments added to the Constitution.
11. Prohibition was created and repealed.

Florida Marlins have all won the World Series.
