The Cubs are going to the World Series!!!!

[csquared]

It is do or die tonight. Can the Cubs hang on or will the goat have its way?

Either way, this brings a whole new meaning to:

Wait till next year! :-)

Not quite do or die, but close. If the Cubs win tonight, there's still a Game 7. At least tonight (and tomorrow if needed) are supposed to be beautiful nights here in Cleveland.

[csquared]

Well, from YOUR standpoint...

If Cleveland won last night, they would not be playing tonight.

Yeah Cubbies. Addison Russell!

[Crossbow]

Good point. Then again, I expected it to go 7 games.

[taxguykarl]

Game 7--this is it. GO CUBS!!!

[csquared]

Going to watch the game at Bobby G's tonight.

J2K. Put on those walking shoes.

The Cubs are the 2016 World Series Champions!

And yet, Cubs fans are still worried that the Cubs will blow it.

:congrats: Cubs fans. The Gorilla is off your teams back. All it took was the Giants choking, again.

If you're wondering what I'm talking about:

1908: The New York Giants commit Merkle's Boner.
2016: The San Francisco Giants blow a 3 run lead in Game 4 of the NLDS.

Forgive my ignorance, but what does the W flag mean?

Nah. When the Milwaukee Brewers win the World Series the apocalypse will really be nigh.

Forgive my ignorance, but what does the W flag mean?

It means the Cubs won their game. When they lose, a flag with an L is flown outside Wrigley Field.

When the Milwaukee Brewers win the World Series

Maybe someday...

I tuned in about the 7th inning just to see what was going on. Don't like baseball at all. Actually, "don't like" is pretty mild for how I feel but that's not important. I'm more of a football fan. And as someone who's not a fan...holy crap it was a fantastic game. I can't even imagine how it would be if I was a fan. Great game, great distraction from all the crap going on in the world. Congrats to the Cubs.

[csquared]

Hats off to Cleveland. This was a series worth watching no matter who your favorite team is. That was great baseball. It was good enough to convert Trixie!

The Indians, Rangers and Astros still have a longer drought than the Brewers, who are tied with the Padres and Nationals at 48 years. Brewers, Padres and Nationals were franchised in 1969 and have never won. At least the Brewers have taken a pennant. The Nationals are the oldest team to have never made the World Series.

I keep thinking of this scene from Armageddon.

There's been a lot of jokes like "uh-oh the World Series is over... back to the election..." Because it WAS an excellent distraction. Maybe everyone will just be mad at Starbucks for their green cup? Goodness people need to stop overreacting ever year to that.
