[17 Seconds]

They horsefeathering did it!

 

you were like the one dude who always had faith. you are a strong man.

:(

 

you're right, sorry. i remember wondering how you could be so optimistic when our offense went scoreless for an eternity against the dodgers.

Hahahahhahahahahahahahaha. So I bet a friend of mine who is a huge Indians fan for a bottle of liquor ($50 or less) on whoever would win this series before game 1 and he already said he won't get me anything because he "didn't" agree to it even though 2 of our friends were there and videotaped of the whole deal.

This was fun, but he was a complete horsefeathers interviewing Heyward later

Oh no

[soccer10k]

Going beyond the 108 years...

 

The Cubs were probably the best team at the end of the 2015 season. The Cubs won the offseason (though Heyward obviously didn't work out as they hoped), and they went into this season as the favorites. Everyone was picking the Cubs to win a ton of games. And what happened? They lived up to expectations, going out and winning 103 games and were 8.5 games better than anyone else in the majors. Going into the playoffs, everyone picked the Cubs to win, with the whole playoffs caveat. And then they went out and did it.

 

This team lived up to everything people hoped they'd be. And that's so rare in baseball, especially in the postseason.

Oh no

oops

[Rob]

The more I think about it, the happier I am at the way this all played out. All the drama just seems fitting.

 

More importantly, with Chapman blowing the save the Cubs were able to win the WS with somebody who (presumably) isn't an awful person on the mound. I'll always remember how that game ended, and I'm glad not to have a domestic abuser playing the hero for the Cubs.

Oh no

oops

 

Worst time in OH pro sports since the Bengals had their Super Bowl slip away courtesy Joe Montana.

It's worth noting that the Cardinals last played on October 2nd.

that's an even better deal for you. now you can troll him constantly about blowing the 3-1 lead without feeling bad about it.

[Hunter]

Going to be a long weekend of watching games again and going through all the threads. It will be glorious!

[Aaron_Kennelly]

I'm not going to get any work done in months, reading and watching everything about this.

[Agony and Ivy]

I'll share thoughts tomorrow. For now I love you [expletive]. I thought I bawled when they clinched but this was absurd.

[SparkMark1]

Without getting ahead of ourselves...3-1 odds to repeat next year...no one else better than 10-1

Yup.

 

Just wish Rossy was out there for the last out, but a Bryzzo out will have to do.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Rebuild was worth it, y'all.

[KatJ]

I hope the front office goes with the first pitch for Bartman thing.

 

I'd also love to have Alex S. Gonzalez woke up with a charred goat's head next to him

in bed... but maybe with rose petals around it something. (It's a fun daydream anyway.)

HOLY horsefeathers! THE CUBS ARE WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONS!

[Cubswin11]

The Bartman stuff was so sickening to keep hearing. But now, bring him back and give him lifetime season tickets and probably a hush-hush TD Ameritrade account with a few million to make up for the decade+ of suffering.

Yeah, Ted Cruz -- er, Tom Ricketts can afford it.

It's al lover now. Bartman, the goat, all of it. It's hard to comprehend. And it's glorious.
