Ernie Banks always had a little rhyme for the CUBS when they began
spring training.  Starting back in `67 there was

"The CUBS will be heavenly in sixty-sevenly"
"The CUBS will be great in sixty-eight"
"The CUBS will shine in sixty-nine" (They almost did!)
"The CUBS will go in seven-oh"
"The CUBS will have fun in seventy-one"

And of course there`s his famous "Let`s play 2 today!"
