In summary, the conversation discusses the predictions made in the movie Back to the Future II, such as flying cars and hover boards, and the disappointment of their lack of existence. The mention of the Cubs not winning the World Series in almost 100 years and the complexity of the game of baseball is also brought up.

And what about those Cubs?
[added] Well, the Cubs are out. So much for that prediction. Oh well, there's always next century!

Cubs, baseball, right, had to google that, they haven't won in the World ("World" series, I can never get over that) in almost a 100 years, they don't seem to be very good?
I tried googling how many teams are involved, but it all seems quite complex.
