Cubs vs Indians 2016 World Series Discussion

[thatoneguy]

go click edit on your post now, it will show you how I did it (in case you don't understand Spanky's explanation)

 

It wasn't showing up on my screen before. Now it is.

[Boxcar]

I want to see the Cubs win so there's potential for Grant to go apeshit.

 

Why does he hate the cubs, exactly?

[Captain Adama]

Because Theo Epstein.

[John_Havok]

I'd rather see the Cubs win, not because Cleveland beat the Jays. .. but because I'd like that franchise's fanbase to have something, considering the last time they were even in a World Series game was 1945, and theres probably very few of their fans left alive that saw that.

[AdamGreenwood]

J4L19 and I are putting up our $240 we will win in a contest if you can give us the time of date, time and second the Cubs finish them off. 1 entry per contestant and only posters above 20000 posts are eligible.

 

I knew I should have posted 'Go Jays Go' in the GDT thread a lot more.

I have always wanted to see the Cubs win a World Series, but now that it's close I'm kinda rooting for something crazy to happen that makes people say, Christ they really are cursed...

 

I want the myth to live on!

I feel the Cubs will steam roll Cleveland, but I also thought that the Jays would win easily. I say Cubs in 6, but hoping lightening strikes just as Baez is about to make the final out in game 7 causing him to make an error and Cleveland to win in a walk off.

It just feels like 4-1 Cubs

[TheHurl]

Why does he hate the cubs, exactly?

 

Because he doesn't like the greatest front office mind this sport has ever seen.

[Boxcar]

Because Theo Epstein.

 

Durr, right. Can't believe I overlooked the fact that yes, a storied franchise filled with talented, likable players might break a century old drought, but it was cobbled together by a guy who worked for Boston like 5 years ago.

 

Too bad Illinois doesn't have the death penalty. Working for the Red Sox should get one the chair.

[Mittens87]

Didn't that guy the blue jays just hire work for the Red Sox? Cheryl Bennington or something

Two very likable teams.

Yeah, Cheryl is a great get

Omg, you're right

 

He even had the audacity to win the WS with the Red Sox

 

I hope the Jays never make the playoffs again.

[HERPDERP]

I am assuming this in jest, if not, dont forget to put your helmet on before getting on the bus today.

Thank you

[thatoneguy]

Schwarbs is back.

[Stangstag]

Shwarambe is back

[Mittens87]

Cubs in 1 inning. Indians forfeit. Kenny lofton will be throwing out first pitch tomorrow, Carlos baerga next. Indians fans seemed to want lebron to do it but isn't he a Yankees fan at least while they were winning anyway?

[GD]

Shwarambe is back

 

Dicks out

[King]

Schwarbs is back.

The Cubs are doing what JG34 did not.

[Orgfiller]

Damn. Roasted.

[guylaroche5]

I hope the Indians win solely to extend the curse, that would be too funny. Kipnis has a good chance of missing game 1 from an ankle injury he sustained celebrating in game 5 of the ALCS (lol). Salazar is back though and if I had to guess how he will be used it'll probably be alongside Clevinger or Ryan "JAYS SLAYER" Merritt for the eventual bullpen game.

[Brownie19]

I just read 4 tickets (row 5 behind home plate) to Game 4 Saturday night in Wrigley sold for $64,000 on stubhub. Damn.

 

 

(I also don't know what JG34 is - right over my head).

JG34 (formerly JaysGuy34) made the BBDL forum league championship as the 8th seed in 2015 and left Kyle Schwarber in the minors the entire playoffs. Was a puzzling move to say the least.
