Scoring: If you really need someone to tell you what the "right" answers to these questions are, you are truly a shitty Cubs fan. But we'll give you +10 points for reading an article about being a Cubs fan--the even shittier "fans" are flipping their playoff tickets for crazy amounts of money instead of going to the game. Selfie on, you drunk mofo.
