Pretty cool scene.  Completely ruined by Marlins dork.

Pretty cool scene.  Completely ruined by Marlins dork.

He literally is not paying any attention to the 9th inning of a potential series-clinching game.

 

[Zegras11]

LOL at where that foul ball landed

 

[Sconch]

Kershaw totally looks human.  That Cubs pitcher bugs me for some reason.

My son and I both yelled BARTMAN as it was in the air.

 

[Sconch]

Haha, eat it, Dodgers

 

[Dragons]

Congrats Cubs, well played series!

[hagmania]

W

 

[Limp Ditka]

Not impressed. They probably would have gotten there last year with Renteria

 

[Juxtatarot]

Hendricks deserves all the credit for this one. One of the best pitchers in the game but doesn't get the respect. Hopefully that just changed.

 

[AAABatteries]

Congrats Cub fans!  Really cool scene after the last out.

 

[Limp Ditka]

Full disclosure.

Im at the bar right now in ####### tears because of the fact that I can't call my old man right now to tell him congratulations

 

[Donkey Derp]

Marlins Man has 36 tweets (including Rt's) during the first 8 innings. What in the ####.

Game clinching NLCS is basically the least important game he will go to all year.

 

[Bobcat10]

Well they got what they wanted, Chi vs Cle/Bos.  Cubs seem like the team of destiny.  Hoping for a long series.

How much money does this guy have? 

 

[money.never.sleeps]

Gonna be a BADASS AWESOME ####### SERIES !!!! Congrats to these city's and fans.  

 

[Limp Ditka]

Any Cub fan with those World Series ticket deserves to be knocked the #### out if they sell tickets to the schmuck.

 

[Donkey Derp]

It's too bad Cleveland's pitching staff isn't at full strength.  Could have been an incredible series especially with Cleveland having home field advantage.

Still will be.

 

[Sconch]

Now all the Bears have to do is get out of this slump and get to the super bowl this year.

 

[Sconch]

The J. Geil's  trophy is kinda ugly.

 

[AAABatteries]

Now all the Bears have to do is get out of this slump and get to the super bow this year.

I think Matt Barkley will be the difference maker.

 

[Good Posting Judge]

The two biggest FA's the Cubs have this off-season are Travis Wood and Trevor Cahill.  

 

[Donkey Derp]

Still will be.

I think it will be.  Indians with Salazar+Carrasco from a fan without rooting interests wound have been really good.  

 

[tri-man 47]

2nd post season game ever with just the minimum of 27 batters.  

 

[AAABatteries]

Is Theo a little tipsy?

 

[Limp Ditka]

How high is Joe Maddon right now?

 

[money.never.sleeps]

I can't call this one but the tribe shutdown a stacked jays team while hitting .168 or .169 as a team in 5.

I'd be happy for either team esp the Indians.. (huge fan as a kid in the 90s)

I'm excited though.  

 

[Good Posting Judge]

Westgate opens Cubs -175 / Tribe +155.

 

[parasaurolophus]

Anybody got any baggers of green apples?

 

[Wrigley]

How high is Joe Maddon right now?

I'm higher 

 

[AAABatteries]

I'm higher 

Congrats Wrigley!!

 

[Limp Ditka]

I'm higher 

Congrats to you and your dickmittened brother, my iFriend

Chapman is a FA too.

 

[FishTacoTuesday]

Of the original MLB franchises, the Pirates now have the longest streak of not being in the World Series at 37 years.  Current championships droughts are Cubs, Indians, Rangers (55 years), Padres (47 years) and the Mariners (40 years) who have never even been in a World Series. 

 

[Rirruto]

Chapman is a FA too.

As is Dexter Fowler. 

 

[money.never.sleeps]

Rangers (55 years), 

They weren't in  Texas till the 70s 

 

[Sconch]

They weren't in  Texas till the 70s 

Not sure you know how sport franchises work.

 

[Long Ball Larry]

I think Matt Barkley will be the difference maker.

Someone fire up the BarkleytoBellamy alias.

 

[money.never.sleeps]

Not sure you know how sport franchises work.

Tell me how grammar works instead? 

 

[Capella]

Just realized that the by far best team in baseball has to travel for game 1 and maybe game 7 because of a pretend baseball game 3 months ago. Cool. 

 

[Grahamburn]

Well they got what they wanted, Chi vs Cle/Bos.  Cubs seem like the team of destiny.  Hoping for a long series.

Vedder or the Tribe? Choose wisely.

Longest combined WS drought per ESPN stats - 174 years.  

 

[FishTacoTuesday]

Rangers (55 years), 

They weren't in  Texas till the 70s 

Thanks, sport. 

 

[money.never.sleeps]

Thanks, sport. 

I'd stuff u in a trash can with Dr. Detroit.. sconch and that rocknroll idiot.  Be better place around here 

Gets tiring. Low level school teacher,  retiree, owner of a taco bus talking down to people ...who are no bodies in the real world. 

 

[FishTacoTuesday]

I had no idea Ambien made people angry.

 

[money.never.sleeps]

Na. Ur just a ####. They get a free pass 

 

[Bobcat10]

Longest combined WS drought per ESPN stats - 174 years.  

Can't imagine any major sport coming close for a long time.

Rangers Padres in 2052.  Book it.

 

[Good Posting Judge]

As is Dexter Fowler. 

I think I was drugged.

There is no higher calling in this world than making a great taco.
