Why thanks. Btw my house has a big M flag flying above my Cavs championship flag. And in about 10 days I'll have an Indians Championship flag to fly along side it.

I remember exactly where I was for the 2003 Steve Bartman game. This game is some vindication.

I'm not a Cubs fan, but anyone who solely blames that guy for the Cubs's hilariously epic collapse in the 2003 NLCS is a fool.

That guy isn't responsible for the Cubs proceeding to give up eight straight runs and totally shitting the bed in game 7.

Not blaming Steve Bartman.

And really no one does anymore. It's just a name we put on the game to signify the event.

The goat curse is not over yet. The Billy Goat Tavern owner declared in 1945 "You are going to lose this World Series and you are never going to win another World Series again. You are never going to win a World Series again because you insulted my goat." So this year's team still isn't at that point yet

Yes sir!!!!! Hendricks was dominant. This team has been, other than that stretch before the allstar game, the best team in the league by far. They finally started playing like it the last 3 games. This team is resilient and selfless. I don't think I'll sleep for another day! 4 more to go!

Cubs get to the WS, Michigan is going to be the #2 team, and the Blackhawks had a great comeback. I still remember that 2003 NLCS Game 6 vividly. Screw you Alex Gonzalez. It was him not Bartman that costed them.

Oh looky. All the people who have never worn a piece of Cubs gear, have never been to Wrigley, couldn't name more than 4 guys on the team, know Jack shit of the Cubs history, don't follow baseball and have been to Chicago only once, on a business trip, are super pumped "their team" is in the World Series. They now use "we" when discussing the Cubs.
