10/25 World Series Game 1: Cubs (Lester) vs Indians (Kluber) 7 p.m., FOX

[Ski]

Obviously the ultimate goal is to win the World Series, but if the worst comes to pass and Cleveland ends its drought instead, I really, really hope people will still see 2016 as a massive success.

 

But horsefeathers that noise. Let's drown these pitching-starved scrubs.

lol its so weird to see this in (digital) print

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Time to win this thing!

Cubs in 3. In an unprecedented event the Indians wave the white flag (with a W) and surrender at the conclusion of the 3rd game after the Cubs outscore them 58 to 1 in the first three games and out-dong them 16 to 0.

[Bote McBoteface]

The Cubs are a good baseball team. I like watching them play baseball. I hope they defeat these injured fools with the racist name.

 

I predict 2 Schwarber bombs.

[trushar]

Let's go Cubs! World Series!

 

Excited to watch Lester get to work. Excited to watch these bats get to work. Excited to maybe hear some bone thugs in game 3.

[BigSlick]

The Cubs are going to win because the Cubs...seem so much better than the Indians? I guess its possible we could lose but the Indians just seem like a blah team with a lot of good but not great players, and the Cubs are loaded and have transcended into baseball godhood. This just feels like a short series a la the Boston 2004 run when the World Series was an afterthought.

 

We have vanquished all before us. Now for the coronation.

Hahahah. A Cubs World Series game thread. This is horsefeathers awesome.

This article begs the question

 

A) you are a huge lifelong Cubs fan, and are at the NL clincher

B) your good friend is on the AL Champion

 

Would you root for the Indians as he claims his friends are going to be?

 

I don't think I would.

For a friend!? Not even a family member? Absolutely not. He can go horsefeathers himself.

My fandom is selfish. Horsefeathers everyone else (besides you guys, because you're on the side of good).

[Hairyducked Idiot]

I just realized I would miss game 5. Sweep please

[David]

there's not a horsefeathering thing on this earth short of a hospital that would keep me from watching a cubs potential world series clinching game

[Aaron_Kennelly]

I'm going to miss Game 3. First World Series game at Wrigley in 71 years...

[doublebubble]

I have nothing to add. I just wanted to post in this thread with all my fellow Cubs fans.

[muskie]

I just need to prove to my own eyes that this thread is real.

 

 

Amazing.

 

Four.More.Wins.

I grew up in Northbrook. He did not live down the street from Bartman, no matter how much that writer wants to believe it.
