Good question, DNM. For many Chicagoans it is a lot about family legacy and/or which neighborhood you live in or was raised in. Basically, US Cellular Field is on the south side in the Bridgeport neighborhood and Wrigley Field is about 10 miles north in the Lake View/Wrigleyville neighborhood. My parents lived in the Little Italy (University Village) neigborhoods until they moved us out to the south west suburbs. Much of the family landed in Cicero. Personally, I am a Sox fan BUT I do like the Cubs as well as all the other Windy City teams. However, when they play each other - it's as clear as black & white! Go Sox! smile
