(For those that don’t know, the Chicago Cubs
are an legendarily inept baseball team.)

Hi Nobby, I've not seen "Brewster's Millions". But as an added slight from cinema...in Michael Cimino's
excellent 1986 film "The Year of the Dragon", while berating a room full of his Chinatown beat-cops,
detective Mickey Rourke says to all of them, "You look like the Cubs, you look like you already lost."
Another reference from cinema you'll probably remember, is Elwood Blues (Dan Aykroyd)
falsifying his drivers license address (dumbfounding everyone in sight) to read...
1060 W. Addison...which is Wrigley Field, home of the Chicago Cubs.
