In this Saturday, Oct. 1, 2016, photo, Chicago Cubs fan Nick Paolella, 81, shows off his Cubs collection at his office in Roselle, Ill. It has been 108 years since the North Siders last won the World Series, beating the Detroit Tigers in five games in 1908. Now one of the best Cubs teams in decades is looking to pour champagne on one of sports’ most famous droughts, and its devoted fans are watching with a mixture of excitement and foreboding dread generated by years of heartache.
