oh my god this is a real person you're getting really aggressive with this gimmick lately. let nsbb breathe, david. over a third of the cubs remaining games are with the pirates. obviously i'm rooting for the cubs there. if the cubs pass the cardinals, they most likely passed pittsburgh too. in the event that the cubs don't win the division, i really would like the cubs to play the cardinals. i think it's an easier matchup, and getting the chance to knock out st. louis in one game (with arrieta pitching) sounds extremely appealing. getting home field against pittsburgh doesn't really mean as much to me. anyways, i said "kind of". i'm not really actively rooting for them. All perfectly reasonable (I've been preferring the idea of knocking the Cardinals out in one game for a little while, too), but you have to remember that David is some kind of cursed were-meatball. When the Cubs lose he undergoes a horrifying transformation and then nobody is safe until it subsides.
