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
I can't believe how according to plan this whole franchise has gone since 2012. They acquired a bunch of great talent, almost all of it were hits, they made a perennial playoff winner, and then just won it in their second spin of the wheel. Theo and Jed are just flipping birds at the baseball gods and the odds combined. They beat it.
Maybe even more poignantly, they didn't even notice. I think it was more a case of shame on us for thinking that we were going to just cruise to a 5-1 W. The Indians were such a fierce [expletive] opponent. Was this the greatest World Series of all time? There were some blow outs in there, but the dramatic games...were quite dramatic
I'm not sure it bears mentioning when we're all so happy and so many great things happened, but boy did Joe manage a poor game It's a good thing Theo and Jed stocked this team up with so much ludicrous talent that it didn't matter, eh
It took probably the best game 7 of all time in maybe the best world series of all time and the Cubs did it what an incredible journey. this season has been so much fun. i still dont really believe this.
IM totally numb We had this game won several times over and Joe made puzzling move after puzzling move and the deal with the devil we made with Chapman finally blew up in our faces This is torture
It's really weird to be in this position because I anticipated a tragic ending in the playoffs sometime well before now and it still doesn't feel real. It's just feel too cinderella-esque. Where is that second shoe dropping? Can this really happen? I felt like I'd have to suffer through numerous playoff letdowns over years before something like this happened. But its happening right now. Just win it.
I want everyone except Cubs fans to be disappointed that this is a low-stress, low-excitement thrashing Let's make this is a very unentertaining whooping in the Cubs favor and the game is an extended victory lap
I have found Miller in this series not all that intimidating to be honest. He's walked people, he's given up loud contact, he has, to be fair, K'ed a good amount of people. But he hasn't been an unstoppable menace, in my eyes.
Yesterday I was prepared to say goodbye to this team if things didn't go the right way Today I'm sad that no matter what this is the last baseball game for like 6 months and its starting to hit me.
my brain doesn't allow me to consider a situation where the cubs lose this game i demand complete game shut out by hendricks by the way. lets just face the minimum like we did in game 6 of the NLCS
