Cubbies in the World Series!?!

[BengalszoneBilly 261]

Well right now they lead the Dodgers 5-0 in the bottom of the 7th. I'm waiting for sonething insanely crazy to happen and they blow this game.

Former Cincinnati Red Chapman warming up in the bullpen to close it out. It seems the Reds are a farm team for professionally run organizations to get good players from.

Pisses me off.

[BengalszoneBilly 261]

Done deal. Cubs vs Indians in the World Series!

Got to be an Indians fan now.  Only a few teams, I would root for the Indians over and the Cubbies are 1 of them.

 

BRING ON THE GOAT!

I'll have to go in the other direction and root on the Cubbies.

Although, it won't break my heart to see the Indians win it either.

It's not the Reds, so i'm good either way.

Everyone in my neck of the woods has gone Cubs-crazy. Of course since I basically live in Chicago it's not surprising...

[BengalszoneBilly 261]

I'm with the Cubs in this matchup. It's more a National League thing for me. After all these years the DH thing still does not sit well with me. A detriment to the game, a stain on it's design.

[redsbengalsbucks 80]

Go Tribe!  WAHOO wins first game.

[BengalszoneBilly 261]

The Indians pitching was stellar last night.

[ArmyBengal 343]

Like I said, I'm good either way and that was a really good game by the Indians.
Kluber was unreal !!!

[BengalszoneBilly 261]

Cubs win! Chapman gets the save, and they head back to Chicago tied at a game apiece. That's what you want, a split on the road to open the Series.

[BengalszoneBilly 261]

And the Indians come right back and get their win in Chicago. I haven't watched this much baseball in years.

[BengalszoneBilly 261]

Just when you think the Cubs are done, Aroldis and Chicago turn it all around.

[ArmyBengal 343]

Taking it to game 7.  What a great series this has been !!!

What a great game 7. Back and forth, dramatic storyline, but the Chicago Cubs finally get the Trophy. I would like to add Eff you Cleveland, Lebron James and the entire American League. Play real baseball or GTFO.

Never been huge fan of baseball but did watch this World Series and it was a great one. Bar I was at on Oregon coast was 100% cubs fans 

[HoosierCat 362]

Cubs won? Excellent, I can count on a nice slow Thursday and Friday up here while all the Cubs fans and bandwagoneers sleep it off!

Happy to see the Cubs win the Championship.
Overall, just a great series to watch.

I would feel bad for fans of all Cleveland sports, but the Cavs won it all last season so whatever.

Had they lost that game last night, it would have totally been on their skipper.
He must have never seen the Reds bring in Chapman when he was tired.
Chapman almost blew the whole damn thing.

I've held off posting in here, fearing I'd jinx my tribe.  Anyway as some of you know I'm a huge Indians fan, and what a thrill to see them win the pennant.  Tough to watch them lose 3 straight to lose the series, but that's the way it goes when your pitchers are one ace, two depth guys, and a bullpen.  Just ran out of arms.  Next year Carasco and Salazar will be back, and I think they'll be a contender again.

Napoli is likely finished in Cleveland.  They're set if they can find a slugging first baseman.

[ArmyBengal 343]

Like I said, I wouldn't have been mad had the Indians won the series.
For what it's worth COB, while I don't feel bad for the fans, I'll send a little empathy your way as a fan of the Bengals.

At least you can feel your team is only one player away.
My poor Reds seem to keep moving in the other direction.
Whatever is worse than coming in last, the Reds seem to be shooting for that.
