Chicago, the city known for the dream teams and the legendary players, from the great Walter Payton to Michael Jordan to Mr Cub Ernie Banks. But, there’s a new buzz around the city of Chicago, it’s not the Chicago Bulls or the Chicago Bears it’s the Chicago Cubs.

They have been bringing fans to their knees since spring training and have continued to do the same during the regular season and hope to continue this through the month of October. It’s easy to ask any Chicago Cubs fan what they think of the Chicago Cubs this season and already know what they are going to say. So, why not ask non Chicago Cubs fans what they think?

Junyeong Oh a senior in Palatine High School who is a diehard Chicago White Sox is “amazed” by the success the Cubs have had this year. Oh said “though a Sox fan, as a Chicago citizen. I am proud of this team and how they are doing so well.”

“Jake Arrieta is god right now, he is walking on earth and we don’t even notice it” said Oh “the young players are pitching and hitting like it’s too easy for them.” Oh finished up the interview stating “hitting 6 home runs during the postseason and doing it against the St Louis Cardinals is beyond impressive,” he said.
