World Series

Fuck, what a game! What a series! I love baseball and when it shines out this good, it's such a pleasure to witness. That said, as an Indians fan I wish it had turned out different. Rain delay in the 9th inning....

Look, the Cubs were the best team all year long, no doubt. And after watching the Indians all year long, I loved the team, loved the pitching, loved the coach, loved the vibe, but not until they went up on the Blue Jays did I think they would even make the World Series much less win it. So as a Tribe fan, I'm cool. We had a great year and while the title was palpable, every baseball fan knows that it ain't over til its over. The tricky part as a general baseball fan is knowing all along that the Cubs will be back next year while the Indians will be in the mix in the AL but are by no means a guarantee, so for all the angst of the Cubs fans, they're gonna be dominate the NL for the foreseeable future, they'll have chances to break the curse while us Indians fans needed to hit the mark as soon as possible.

Good year for the Cubs, congrats. After Rajai Davis hit that homer, I really thought all the momentum was going back to Cleveland and the Indians would finish it off. But the baseball gods were rooting for the Cubs. That rain delay...

I think the Cubs should invite Bartman to throw out the first pitch on opening day. He's a legit Cubs fan and to suffer that level of sadness to be associated with the Cubs curse is a unimaginable level of trauma. The curse is over, the championship is won, bringing out Bartman to put the curse to rest is not merely a nice thing to do, it is a necessary thing to do. The Cubs will be good for a while, it is imperative to put the losing past behind them. And to restore a true Cubs fan to his rightful place is the perfect way to do it. It should happen and I think it will. Welcome back to Chicago, Mr. Bartman, the first pitch is yours.
