Ballot: What would Cubs fans give up for title?



Just how desperate are Cubs fans for a World Series title?
What would you, Cubs fans, give up for a World Series title? This is the question Wayne Drehs examines in his latest blog entry for ESPNChicago.

Would you give up Italian beef sandwiches? Would you pay $10,000? Would you part with a finger? How about sex? Or worse ... the '85 Bears?!

This is a Faustian bargain worthy of a blues song, only more serious. After all, Drehs is not asking you to give up your soul, rather Wrigley Field.

Below, we've listed the possible exchanges. Choose all the things you could stomach parting with for just one World Series championship.
