Lighten up, Francis

He might have something here, educated ma bro. There was a
big tear in the fabric o' Spacetime when these guys finally
smacked it all year and made the sticks bigger than all the
bullpens. That hasn't happened on the North Side since:

Big Alphonse was only SIX years old.
Thomas Edison was four years younger than me, like 61.
FGS Mark Twain was still here and 72!
I think Mary Tyler Moore Hadn't even moved from
Westchester to Twin Cities. Don't hurt her, I love her.
But it wasn't because Dick was a dick: they just evolved.

This isn't champagne and caviar time, we should tool
up for aliens landing at Millenium Park --- with a petition
to bring back Meigs Field for the triangle bandits. I gota
lotta uSoft Flight Simulator time and I WANT MY WRAPS.
There may be a lot more entertainment coming our way
until the election, so get some straps for the aluminum
rally caps. You've been warned.

You know i was thinking something similar. My next door neighbor was out in the street freaking out that the cubs won. All i could do was think to myslef the world must be ending. We got the cubs winning the world series and donald fkng trump about to be elected president.

Lemme go get my bug out bag....

For the nostalgic:

And the only other guy besides Jack Brickhouse that stuck
with them no matter what. I don't care if Harry was a Soxer
earlier on or not, he gave the sports broadcast medium in
Chicago SALT again. And Vedder sang "Fake Me Out" better
than Harry-- but I've always been a Pearl Jam guy anyway.

What was that stuff in Revelation about "..when everybody
says Peace and Security, then Lucy pulls the football away--
and Charlie Brown messes up his back so he can't even pull
on the 3-day pack anymore." Of course, I'm not St. John...
AUGHhhh.
Just when you least expect it, Belgrade 1956.
Or at least Watts V. 3.0, with bussed-in wierdos tryin' to
light bottles of Colt 45. Darwin won.
Think my NumNutsLock is on, more Jack is the Answer.
Wait was that a Moozy Schmooz album name? Hey Justin...
If this drifts off course, of course, let me insert more
succinctly to the OP that most of us are too flushed with
unexpected exuberance presently to be of any use in addres-
sing the basic doom and general economic, social and political
DAMNATION we are so inevitably proximate to any second.
There keep that fear alive derf.

So sorry to hear about your father. Cancer is a B!/($!! But I'm sure he was up there celebrating the victory with Harry Carry and the plethora of diehard cub fans on the good side of the pearly gates.

Good for them I know how it feels winning nothing then winning the big one (Man city fan) hope they all have a good time.

One of the things that I never thought would happen in my lifetime. I never honestly thought that I would get to see the Chicago Cubs win a World Series. That changed tonight when the 108 year long drought of the Cubs not winning a World Series ceased to exist. Never in all my years as a baseball fan have I never been happier to see a team win the World Series.

The biggest win for the Cubs franchise that the North Side of Chicago has ever seen. Fly the W high and fly it proudly!



Somewhere up there, Harry Caray, "Mr. Cub" Ernie Banks, and Ron Santo are smiling down from that big WGN broadcast booth in the sky.........

Harry, none of us knew how right you were until tonight.

Someone the other day said "here come the bandwagon fans" and I just told them, how can anyone not? The damn cubs deserve it!

The curse is lifted,

And lo I beheld a pale horse and trumpets blaring, the seventh seal opening, cats and dogs living together!

Guys this is not as good news as it may seem. Would this not mean that the end of the world is near??? I mean, the devil has to be wearing a snow coat right??

hehe, but its still a good thing for community pride at least. There are many many people now who feel they can die in peace having see this finally happen.

Fireworks and people screaming all over the state. It's insane everywhere!!! Go Cubs!!!!!!!!! I saw them lose when I lived in Wrigleyville so many times and it actually happened. One of the greatest game 7s of all time. W!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I watched every game. Mostly because my older brother is a HUGE fan. He's 42 now and I literally can't recall a time he wasn't obsessed with the Cubs. Needless to say my family has been glued to the TV.

I only wish Cubs won last year so it matched Back To The Future's predictions of them winning in 2015 haha

Hold on doesn't someone somewhere say that them winning means the end of the world will happen?.

Bill Murray looks chuffed .

I like that. lets get some more reactions. This gentleman is legit thrilled, and I agree 100% with everything he says.

a reply to: TheKnightofDoom

See, this is exactly why, while I'm not a sports fan myself, I can't help but feel vicariously so happy for those who are tonight. I mean, look at his face. That is just pure joy. How can anyone not empathetically feel great seeing that?

Peace.

Crazy how everyone goes nuts over basketball.

Whats a cubs?
