    As long as Lester gets that zone I'm fine.
  2. soccer10k
    We're officially watching the Cubs in the World Series!
  3. soccer10k
    HE'S BACK!

    We have not, but I would expect us to go Lester. He's our horse. I put Lester in there because he'd be going on normal rest and didn't think they'd care about 7 vs 8 days off for Jake since he'll pitch Game 1 or 2 anyway. Lester threw 108 on Thursday but was coming off 77 the start before so it's not like they stretched him to 120.

    We're finally here. When Theo took this team over after the 2011 season, we all had dreams that this day would come. We suffered through a couple terrible seasons and regardless of whether you agree or disagree with the method, it's certainly paid off. But while we're happy with the pennant, the ultimate goal has yet to be achieved. Four more wins. 108 more outs to get to end 108 years of suffering. I said Kershaw was on notice before the last game and the Cubs crushed his hopes and dreams. Now it's your turn, Cleveland. I know it's been 68 years for you, but you're going to have to wait at least one more. BeliEVEN? Ended it. BelieVin? Sorry, no happy ending here. Believeland? The Cubs are coming for you. CUBS are 110-61-1 when they play a baseball game CUBS are 7-3 in the playoffs CUBS are 49-36-1 on the road CUBS are 27-8 when Lester starts CUBS are 0-0 against the Indians CUBS are 9-9 all time against the Indians Go CUBS !! http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h184/soccer10k/Fred_1.png EDIT: I knew I was forgetting something.

    Did anyone try to get newspapers today and did they actually have coverage of last night in there?
  7. soccer10k
    Hey guys, how's everything going? Anything interesting happen last night? I'm out with family right now but I'll have the new thread up tonight.

    I think if the Cubs were up 2-0 after beating Kluber and whoever Cleveland starts in Game 2, the next game would be relatively stress free.

    Ok. Haven't bought anything yet. My plan was to go to a bar outside of Wrigley and check the online sites after the game had started in the hopes that prices would drop a bit. Not really counting on it but in case I do pull the trigger, I wanted to know where I'd be standing. I don't really mind walking around and I'm 6-8 so I don't have to worry about other people blocking my view. don't the online sites shutdown after the game starts? Gametime and Seatgeek allow you to keep buying tickets an hour into the game.

    It's basically between the dugouts at the back of terrace reserved. You are going to have a huge overhang blocking the sky but depending on pole positioning you should have a solid view of the entire field. Get there early though and lock in a spot, I can't stress that enough. Also unless you are standing next to someone who is cool, be prepared to not leave the spot because people will quickly jump in and take it. If that happens, you still have access to anywhere in the park (besides the bleachers), if you don't mind being on the move, the last time I had SRO, I spent probably 3-4 innings just walking back and forth between the lower and upper concourse watching the game as I walked back and forth.

    So where are the general standing room only tickets good for? Obviously the bleacher SRO are behind the bleachers but where are the regular SRO?
  12. soccer10k
    Guess I should have bought a ticket the other night. Cheapest on Stubhub and Seatgeek are $500 for SRO.

    I know there's still work to be done but can you guys taste the World Series? Because I sure as hell can. The next two days are going to be a bunch of [expletive] from the media. 1908 this, 71 years since a pennant that, 2003 this, 1984 that. And I'm sure Fox already has a wonderful video compilation of Bartman ready to go. Most of that horsefeathers ends on Saturday (1908 will have to wait a week or so). This is happening. Clayton Kershaw, you're on notice. CUBS are 109-61-1 when they play a baseball game CUBS are 6-3 in the playoffs CUBS are 60-25 at home CUBS are 19-11 when Hendricks starts CUBS are 7-5 against the Dodgers Go CUBS!!
  14. soccer10k
    Same here.
  15. soccer10k
    I don't like Chapman for 2. Why not Strop?
  16. soccer10k
    Dammit.
  17. soccer10k
    Come on Marquez. Ring him up.
  18. soccer10k
    I hope we don't regret not getting more in the first.
  19. soccer10k
    Cubs are scoring in the next inning.
  20. soccer10k
    Maeda's got nothing. Cubs better knock him around.
  21. soccer10k
    Where'd you end up? I'm just at a friends house for tonight...got a feeling Saturday is going to be a somewhat expensive day. Settled on Fatpour. Solid beer selection. Our AirBnB was actually off the Division stop so that worked out well.
  22. soccer10k
    How do you guys last until 7 each night? This is terrible.
  23. soccer10k
    This
  24. soccer10k
    I hope someone responded "It's 9:50 and the Dodgers still lost by 8".
  25. soccer10k
    Squally and Omar, thanks for the bar tips. I'll have to check them out after I land in Chicago.
