An apparent side effect of Cubs' World Series fever? Selective amnesia. Symptoms include the inability to recall Chicago actually has two baseball teams, one of which won the Fall Classic 11 years ago. White Sox ring a bell, anyone?
Among those afflicted: Whoever at ESPN signed off on a graphic Monday night that purported to list the titles Chicago and Cleveland major-league pro teams have won since 1965.
Looking ahead to the Cubs-Indians World Series matchup, the chart has the Cavaliers’ lone title this past basketball season under Cleveland.
