Cubs probably thought there would be numerous opportunities in the near future to win a world series or two. pick up some extra $$$, then win the WS down the line..

I believe
That Bill Veeck's second book:
The Hustler's Handbook has the most information I have ever read on this subject. It was believed that the investigation into the 1918 World Series was a part of what sparked which ended up nailling the 1919 people. I would believe there could have been a "fix" in 1918 as well Rich

From a 58-year old life-long Cubs fan who'se the son of an 86-year old life-long Cubs fan, we can both assure you, the Cubs did not and do not have to try to lose!

The only part about this that hurts however is that I keep hearing about this from every Red Sox fan I know...you'd think they remembered the burden!
