I hope the iceberg that sank the Titanic reforms itself from Zan activating his Wonder Twin Powers and slices Wrigley Field under the waterline so every Cubs fan on earth can watch it sink, collectively board flights to Guyana and then promptly commit mass fucking suicide.

2016 is already a weird and effed up year. Might as well have the Cubs win the World Series. :P

You guys can lay off the Cub bashing now they're down 3-1.

I've been too nervous to trash talk this whole post season.  That being said, the next game the Indians are favored in will be the first. <_<

I'll wait until the series is over and humanity is safe for another year.

Cubbiedom has risen to toxic levels.  The equivalent of the Red Sox getting off the schneid, only with celebrity obnoxiousness.  This nation just can't deal with that right now.

Fucking Hayward. :bleeding:

How long does Maddon ride a busted hunch?

Chapman comes on in the 7th! :o

You can resume slagging the Cubs now.  :)

Great game, well played

Chapman's lucky his lack of hustle to first didn't wind up costing the game.  Yeah, his delivery turns him away from first base but covering it, that's Little League stuff.

Maybe because he grew up in Cuba he didn't play Little League, so he doesn't know the Little League stuff.

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)

That's even worse of a excuse, since it's in his DNA then.
