Ok enough is enough!!!
There's a movie called Chasing October, its about the UNSUCESSFUL
exploits of Chicago's second best baseball team.
The LOVEABLE LOSERS? The FLUBS!!!
It details the many, many many many many many Losing seasons
and it's quest for the World Series Title.
Which if i remember correctly was won in 2005 by THE WHITE SOX.
Now where's the movie about this Greatest fete in Chicago Sports History?
The one detailing the Sox rise to the top?
Not about the team that WANT's to rise to the top!!!
Lets call the white sox movie- CATCHING OCTOBER and A CROWN!!!!
It's sickening to exploit how the poor cubbies haven't won a world series in 98 years!!!
Let's salute the WINNERS of the World Series- The White Sox.
Not the Losers from the north side, with the gawdy blue pinstriped Pajama's
they call uniforms, you know the ones with the big target on the back.
Wise up Chicago- Here's to our Champions, the White Sox!!!!

'October' finds comedy in Cubs' futility
March 23, 2007
BY DAVE HOEKSTRA Staff Reporter
The docu-comedy "Chasing October" is a timeless proposition. Being a Cubs fan goes beyond October, November and into a burden that becomes Wrigley gum on life's shoe.

Inspired by a ghostly visit from Harry Caray, filmmaker Matt Liston set out to chronicle the 2003 Cubs season in "Chasing October." This, of course, was the dream that shattered in Game 6 of the National League Championship Series when the Cubs were five outs away from the World Series.

The official website of the movie and the trailer. It actually looks like it could be kinda good. In a sort of Lovable Loser baseball futility kind of way. :D

No one thought to do that. You know, lots of people videotaped the
proceedings in bars and such during the 2005 postseason, didn't they?
Perhaps some of that material can be mined for a doc. Now that I think
about it, I wish I had done it.
