  1. Rally was a little quieter than I anticipated but I don't know that it could've been big enough for me to be surprised. It got legit dusty in my office when Rizzo started losing it. I have 6 or 7 favorites on this team but I think Rizzo is the big one. I know STL fans think our love for David Ross is ridiculous, and were the roles reversed I'd be leading the brigade, but I will love that guy forever.
  2. I have had such a horsefeathering blast watching Dexter Fowler be our leadoff hitter the last 2 seasons. He's everything you could ever want out of a hitter from an approach perspective. It's too bad that it doesn't make sense for the Cubs to pay him what he will get from someone else. But we'll never forget him here.
  3. That is Shopped but he will be wearing full Cubs uniform when the Cavs visit Chicago Dec. 2 per the bet.
  4. I got a little Kyle-ish in my dislike of how things were going in late 2013 and especially in 2014 and I won't say I regret it per se but I thank Theo for sticking it out and having an idea of what was coming very soon. He's my favorite person in a while.
  5. I'm so happy for him I'm pretty much happy for everyone on this entire team (sans Chapman), they're all great, they've all worked their butts off, but no one worked 6 months to the bone like Schwarber did, incredible Chapman is human garbage, but I do give him some credit for gutting out that 9th inning when he absolutely shouldn't have been out there.
  6. They didn't invent that line of thinking, of course. People said the same garbage about Boston and, oh look, turns out a big-market team that competes consistently is still pretty freaking popular even if there's no stupid curse narrative in the national media.
  7. Haha, seriously. I'm guessing it wasn't intended as a thunder-stealing move (I certainly hope it wasn't), but if it were that's about the last thing most of their fans want to see right now.
  8. I think I cried hysterically for about 10 minutes. I'm not even kidding. I told my 2.5 month old son he never has to hear a horsefeathering word about a goat, the years 1908 or 1945, 'lovable losers', any of that crap. All he knows is a world in which the Cubs are the best team in the world. We won because of our dongs, our defense, our youth, our MOTHER horsefeathering AMAZING BASERUNNING (KB and Almora, oh my god), and our pitching, but more than anything we won because of our balls. Game 4 of the LDS, Game 1 of the LCS and Games 5 and 7 of this series are games the Cubs have historically found ways to lose, and instead Jason Heyward calls a rain delay meeting (worth every penny of his $184 million just for that one meeting) and the kids get their horsefeathers together and win the game. Kyle Schwarber OBP's over .500 on a freaking reconstructed knee. Javy and Contreras save their biggest swings for the biggest night. Sexy Dexy, you go, we go. I'm so happy for myself and I'm so happy for all of you. I woke up today in a world in which the Cubs are indisputably the best team in the world. I get to buy shirts, hats, hoodies and Blu-Ray sets that say Cubs World Series Champions all over them. I'm so happy.
  9. I haven't stopped hysterically crying I love you all so much THE CUBS WON THE [expletive] WORLD SERIES IN MY LIFETIME THE CHICAGO CUBS
  10. Please Monty please for all that is good come the horsefeathers on I will die
  11. If you had told me Carl Edwards would be on the mound to finish the World Series back in February
  12. He had exactly my reaction, minus the running all around the house
  13. I have nothing positive to say about this situation
  14. What the holy horsefeathers is this. Even if weather is coming it isn't here yet!
  15. Gutsy pitching in that 9th by Chapman. Beef of the order up, please score.
  16. And of course now he decides to stick with his horsefeathering pitcher
  17. Throwing sliders and not hitting 100, he's essentially begging to be taken out
  18. And he's putting Chapman back in. Congratulations Cleveland
