I don't understand why there is so much hatred between Cubs and White Sox fans. As a native of the Chicago area, I am primarily a White Sox fan. What that means is that no matter who the White Sox play, I want them to win. The same is true of the Cubs, unless they are playing the White Sox. I have a real hard time understanding why one would root for anyone other than their home team. There are many fans that are Sox fans that want the Cubs to lose to everyone, and vice-versa. I wholeheartedly disagree. I think that fans from a particular town should root for their home town team.
On another note, and boy I expect to get some grief by saying this as a Chicago Bears fan. I am a rabid Bears fan...I want them to win all the time. However, my second favorite team is the Packers! To me, it is almost the same thing as my Cubs/Sox argument. I want the Packers to win every time unless it is against the Bears, or it puts the Bears in a worse position to have home field throughout the playoffs. What makes me laugh is that many people that are Bears fans, that hope the Packers lose at all costs, are the same that go north of the boarder into Wisconsin to vacation in Lake Geneva, The Dells, or other parts of Wisconsin. I also find it somewhat laughable for some that live in common vacation areas of Wisconsin that loathe people from Illinois by calling them things like "FIBS" (F***king Illinois B***ards). I can't imagine what would happen to the Wisconsin economy if the FIBS stayed home.
