2006 was not a kind year for the Chicago Cubs and their fans.

Hopefully we can still appreciate a joke or two about our favorite team's lack of winning this past year.

Most of my friends that I see regularly these days are (gasp!) Cardinal fans.

And they're more than happy to share their humor with me.

For instance...

Q. Do you know what the Cubs and Cardinals have in common?

A. Neither has won a World Series in their "new" stadium.

Of course, the reply to that is...

The Cardinals might want to hire better architects, their stadiums only seem to last 40 years or so.

You know, they say the 2006 Cubs were not a winning team, but they won a game every week, just like the Chicago Bears!
