Similar to the statement in a different episode about the Red Sox never winning the world series a second time, the statement in the episode about the Cubs would also be proven false, as the Cubs would again win the series in 2016. As stated by Ken Burns, one reason why he would return to the series after 16 years to create a new episode in 2010 was to right the statement about the Sox. There is not much of a chance that he will do the same for the Cubs.
