What a perfect ending to the best thread in NSBB history.

Crane politely tells Cubs fans that their artwork is not welcome at Wrigley Field permanently.

 

What an amazing journey! As we begin to reflect on the 2016 season and our World Series title, we again want to thank you for your incredible support. You helped make history and truly are the best fans in the game.

 

Our entire organization also would like to thank the many fans who have visited Wrigley Field over the past week to leave chalk messages on our Budweiser Bleacher walls. We are humbled by the beautiful memorials you created as testimonials to your faith, perseverance and generational connection to our beloved ballpark and team. You have developed what we hope will become a Wrigley Field postseason tradition. We also want to thank everyone for participating in a safe and celebratory manner. Wrigley Field is our home and a place of historical significance we intend to preserve for our children and grandchildren. We appreciate your continued support in this effort and consideration in confining these messages to our outfield walls along Sheffield and Waveland avenues, and avoiding other areas of the ballpark.

 

We also are very appreciative of the use of chalk, which produces a creative and colorful display that does not damage our historic brick walls, which include bricks dating back to the 1920s.

 

Due to the start of offseason construction, we will need to fence in these beautiful postseason memorials and remove the artwork from all areas of the ballpark. While we hate to remove these cherished messages, chalk is a fleeting medium. To preserve these images, we will continue to photograph the outfield bleacher walls so we may share these postseason wall messages publicly in the future. We invite fans who have not yet left a postseason message to do so on the outfield bleacher walls by 5 p.m. CST tomorrow, November 8, after which time we will take final images prior to the start of construction for the 2016-17 offseason.

that Rajai Davis dinger is so much less irritating to watch today

 

also, HOLY horsefeathers WOULD SOMEBODY PLEASE MURDER THAT DRUMMER??? I really don't know how Cleveland fans tolerate it

 

At the time, it was perhaps the worst moment of my life. Now, it's but an element of the greatest film never written.

So do we lock the thread at one page next year? How does that work? #firstworldproblems

I just realized something today walking by a magazine rack, poor Monty is immortalized with nobody to celebrate with. There were two magazines side by side with two slightly different pictures. One had the probably most famous of the celebration photos of Bryzzo jumping into each others arms, and Baez/Russell embraced and kind of looking like they are going to the ground and there's Monty in the middle trying to get in on the Bryzzo action, and the second cover was the same shot but about 5 seconds beforehand and from the other side and Monty is just arriving and looking lonely.
