Tribe wins!  Just one more to go.  Taint does not apply because he spelled it "Cleavland".  And no take-backs.

Toronto needs a real drone strike to get out of this one.

Fuck it;  they're playing a Canadian team, so their cause is just. 

Stupid Canadian baseball and their 3 base fields.  Weirdos.

I want to get upset and argue with you... but the Jays were never my team, so fuck 'em.

Because between 3-down football and 5-pin bowling we have enough oddball sports, don't you think?

I thought the Giants were an abberation, but since the steroid ban baseball players all look kind of normal sized.

Exactly.  Cubs down 2 games to 1 = PANIC

Cubs come back to tie series = THEY'VE ALREADY WON THE WORLD SERIES

Also, Congrats Indians and BA.  Indians get back to the World Series the same year my kid plays for a Little League Indians team.  Coincidence?

The Cubs fans are just a little intense.

The Indians used to have a very passionate and neurotic fan base but they seem to have cooled over the years. I think the Cavs winning it somehow soothed whatever complex Cleveland had.

This cubs team is one of the best I've ever seen.  Right up there with the 98 Yankees.  But it's the playoffs, anyone can lose a 7 game series especially when the other side has Kershaw around.

Alright so social media is calling for Charlie Sheen to throw out the first pitch at the World Series dressed up as his character from the movie Major League. So that's a cool idea.

But what I really thought was cool from the article about it was this: http://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/17849635/charlie-sheen-wild-thing-throw-ceremonial-first-pitch-world-series

QuoteThe real Cleveland Indians, who overcame injuries to win the AL Central, before knocking off Boston and Toronto in the playoffs, took a page from "Major League" this season.

Slugger Mike Napoli and second baseman Jason Kipnis constructed a shrine in an empty clubhouse stall between their lockers like one in the movie. In the film, character Pedro Cerrano practices Voodoo and prays to an idol named, "Jobu" to help him hit curveballs.

Like Cerrano, Napoli and Kipnis have their own "Jobu" and have left gifts, including small bottles of rum and cigars, to keep them out of hitting slumps.

Now I know major league ballplayers love that movie so this might be a common thing, but that is pretty awesome.
