World Series 2016: Cubs v. Indians
cubs.com ^ | 10/25/16 | GRRRRR

Posted on 10/25/2016 4:01:38 PM PDT by GRRRRR

This is nuts. After 51 years of Cub Fandom, we're in the Series.

Schwarber makes the lineup as DH, what a fine credit to the Cubs Mgmt team to have him with the team during rehab all summer.

Lester starts tonight, still can't throw to first, or second for that matter.

All other factors being equal, which they aren't really, Cubs pitching will win this series for Chicago.

Trump needs to make a surprise trip to Chicago. If he can hit up a black neighborhood safely so much the better. He could win Chicago over and the state too. It is possible. Obama has forgotten them long ago and Hillary would never go there.

They didn’t show any players during the national anthem. Hmm

If the Cubs win the World Series I predict a sharp increase in the mortality rate of Cubs fans. After seeing their Cubbies win the World Series they will have nothing to live for. At least they will die with smiles on their faces.

Well done!

Schwarber is also a highly talented catcher. I see him in the outfield and behind the plate next year.

Stop that.

Ball players always stand. Always. They don’t bring politics into the game.

Rick Monday says it all.

What is (an) Obama? Never heard of it.

obozo is a Sox fan. No love lost. He didn’t like Bill Murray wearing cubs clothes in the white house press room earlier this week.

Sorry, I am behind on my curses. As a Dodger fan the only curse we deal with is trying to keep people in the stadium past the 5th inning.

What is this, Little League?

Lester has always made me crazy with his “I don’t hold runners on” nonsense.

Indeed. He spoke fondly of "Cominskey Field."
