— -- The Chicago Cubs are all the rage these days. Best team in baseball ... great young players ... a zany manager ... haven't won a title in more than a century ... you get the idea.

Will they finally win it all, or will their curses continue? Either way, you're bound to see even more of them on TV and Twitter this fall. As such, it's time for lapsed Cubs fans to brush up on their team (who is Bryzzo?) and for non-Cubs fans to learn the basics (what is that song they sing after every win?).

Our Cubs encyclopedia -- a Cubs-pedia, if you will -- has everything you need to know this October as you follow the exploits of the Lovable Losers (see "L" for more on that one).

Keep this nearby as you watch the playoffs and listen to the pundits. It's sure to come in handy. And the best part? There's no quiz at the end.
