I tip my hat to Cleveland. This is unreal.

MLB Playoffs: The Cubs' biggest problem has been exposed http://www.foxsports.com/mlb/story/mlb-pla...schedule-101616

QUOTE (JUSTgottaBELIEVE @ Oct 16, 2016 -> 08:35 AM) The fact that my buddies that are Cubs fans think that it's a given the Cubs win the Series by getting past the Dodgers is comical. That's my biggest issue with Cubs fans. As soon as they get a nice team, they get cocky. Oh, never mind the fact that they haven't won the World Series in 108 years, minor detail. The Indians are actually rolling even better than the Cubs right now as evidenced by their 5-0 record in the playoffs against two very good AL East teams. They don't have the same name recognition as the Cubs but their offense is very good (5th in baseball in runs scored, Cubs 3rd), defense is sound (5th best defense according to fangraphs, Cubs 1st), better bullpen including the best reliever in baseball, ace (Kluber) to match Lester, better manager, and home field advantage. Plus they seem to have all the intangibles going their way right now. If they can line up Kluber for Game 1, they will not be an easy out. Amen to that. My cub friends are talking about what lock it is to beat los Angeles and that the Indians will get swept in the world series.

I'm at a wedding. I just heard a lot of profanity. Haha

A single here please...

Well... Guess wait until Sunday. Yuck.

You guys need sort of embrace the horror. I'm sorry it will ruin your guys lives so much if it happens but life goes on. I am in the same camp as you. Let them win and maybe cubs fans will finally STFU about it.

QUOTE (Footlongcomiskeydog @ Oct 12, 2016 -> 09:13 AM) I really don't think it matters who the Cubs face next round. They are by far the best team left in the NL. The Cubs have owned the Nationals all year and no Ramos and no Strasburg is gonna hurt them big time. The Nationals only hope is that David Murphy turns into superman again. The Dodgers might have a chance if they pitch Kershaw 3 times in the Series. Maeda and Hill don't scare anyone and Jensen has been getting rocked so far in the postseason. I've come to the realization that this is simply the Cubs year. They are the best team in baseball. A World Series championship is inevitable. I live in Lincoln Square so I am firmly in the belly of the beast and it majorly sucks. In fact, people were lighting off fireworks in my neighborhood last night after the W. I muttered freaking amateurs under my breath as the fireworks boomed around me, but part of me was very jealous that a winning team exists in Chicago and it sure as hell ain't the Sox. I hear ya. At work this morning all the cub fans were unbearable.

Well, according to my Facebook this morning last night's game punched their ticket to the world series.

Look who's here..

Cub fans were crying on my Facebook page now it's back to cocky city.

QUOTE (fathom @ Oct 11, 2016 -> 09:18 PM) Bad throw and bad scoop effort then by Belt. Pence also slow to back up Ah

QUOTE (fathom @ Oct 11, 2016 -> 09:14 PM) What awful defense I'm not watching. Who?

QUOTE (Brian @ Oct 11, 2016 -> 11:22 AM) Cubs fans at work panicking. I'm just minding my own business. What are they saying? Just curious.

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Oct 11, 2016 -> 01:55 AM) Yeah I made the money, I was about triple down too haha but I chickened out. Congratulations! I need to listen to you more often!

Oh my. Went to bed but woke up in a sweat. What happened lol

QUOTE (shipps @ Oct 10, 2016 -> 03:48 PM) This series goes five games. I know everything is lollipops and butterflies for the beloved Cubs but they will face a challenge in these Giants, they arent going to go quietly. I am convinced of that. Bet the house?

You guys got quiet. I'm not watching the game.

I saw a guy with a giants Jersey on the blue line. Gave him a thumbs up and I hoped they kick cubs ass. He laughed and he shook my hand.

QUOTE (fathom @ Oct 7, 2016 -> 10:59 PM) To be fair a portion of those posts are people watching their first game ever tonight. Remember last year when Cubs fans say they rooted their whole life to make it to the NLCS Don't remind me. Haha

My Facebook feed looks as if the cubs just won the WS. Calm down assholes.

Chapman gives up three runs, no don't bet the house on it.

I'm not watching on TV. I'll follow this thread for updates. Can't stand another playoff year watching cub fans on TV. I get enough in real life

4-0 tribe.
