Legendary broadcaster Jack Brickhouse once said "any team can have a bad century." He was joking, of course, but the Chicago Cubs franchise, whose games he worked for decades, entered 2008 on the brink of making his words come painfully true. A number of expansion teams in the four major sports never have won a World Series, Super Bowl, Stanley Cup, or NBA title in their brief histories. But no team ever has gone 100 years without winning a championship. Following the Cubs’ quest to avert that infamous distinction is the backdrop for Living the Dream , which, for author Jim Mc Ardle, it truly was. Mc Ardle, a former Cubs employee as editor of the official team magazine Vine Line , quit his job to devote himself completely to the 2008 Cubs’ season. Thanks to clubhouse access generously offered by the team and an apartment located just beyond Wrigley’s left-field fence, Mc Ardle was uniquely positioned to compile this fascinating story.
