I refuse to believe that statistic. Straight from the mouth of Pat Hughes. I just can't believe that the Cubs in the last 63 years have been unable to win 8 in a row on the road. I mean I know the Cubs haven't had the best teams, but wow. :-k I swore ESPN said the cubs' downfall this year was that they were terrible on the road. it was until 8 road games ago, but then few teams do well on the road I was just poking fun at the main, albeit weak, argument that the talking heads on TV were spewing on about the cubs downfall this year. As it turns out, IMO, it was more of an anomaly that they were playing better than average at home and less than average on the road. They are a great team, regardless of geographic location.
