The Cubs still haven’t scored a run in the World Series in 71 years.

Exactly. The last time the Cubs won it all (1908), We even elected a fairly decent President named William Howard Taft.

I want the Cubbies to lose because of Obama, Ayers, Wright. FU, Chicago for what you did to the country.

If she did, it is a rare occasion that she spoke the truth. Excellent! I was hoping someone would catch my little joke-within-a-joke.

Cleveland has hellacious pictures
Assume you mean "pitchers". And you would be absolutely correct! The guy we're running out tonight (Bauer) is one heck of a character. Hopefully he'll be able to keep the bleeding at bay. Go Tribe!
Sorry to hear about your dad. My grandma died when I was a kid and she loved the Indians. I remember as a boy seeing her wracked with cancer and pain, but smiling and having a "great day" because the Indians struck out Reggie Jackson three times. I'll never forget that.

The Red Sox are the largest corporate contributor to the DNC in New England. Do you recall John Henry, Tom Werner and Theo Epstein actively campaigning for John Kerry and all other Democrat nominees? At least Curt Schilling survived!

After opposing Trump in the primaries, Joe Ricketts will give at least $1 million to support him.
Go Cubs but if Ohio goes Trump Go Cleveland

Ya, bases loaded and no outs, then no runs was very painful

Great story man, good for your Grandma for still being able to find joy ...
To: Scythian_Reborn
When the Cubs string together hits, they win. It was that way with the Rays when Maddon and Zobrist wore TB on their caps, and it’s been that way throughout the postseason. Fearless prediction: tonight Cubs win, 8-3.

Some time ago, I swore I'd never spend another dime in the corruption capital of the free world. So far, so good... I've even turned down offers to see my Cardinals play at Wrigley and tickets to the Chicago Symphony.
GO TRIBE.

I’m not a baseball follower.
I simply want the Cartoon caricature Indian to win, because its funny and gets the SJW’s panties in a knot

Chicago has nothing to cry about - they have 3 Stanley Cups in the last 6 years.

Not a fan of Bauer. Last game against the Tigers he hit three batters. They should’ve kicked his ass but they didn’t. I would love to see his karma come due tonight.

I thought there was only one Stanley Cup.
BTW, I said NOTHING about CHICAGO fans, only Cub fans. White Sox, Bulls, Bears and Blackhawks DON't take a perverse pleasure in losing.

(There is no salvation in politics.)
To: Red Badger
Before she announced that she was a lifelong New York Yankees fan, First Lady Hillary Clinton attended Opening Day at Wrigley Field in 1994 and threw out the ceremonial first pitch.
Cubs rookie Tuffy Rhodes hit three home runs, but the Cubs lost to the New York Mets 12-8. Rhodes wound up playing professional baseball in Japan when it became obvious that he could not catch routine fly balls hit to him in the outfield.
He was like a Little League player who would raise his glove hand while turning his head away from the ball for fear that it would hit him.
One of the funnier memories of that Opening Day was an airplane with an advertising banner which was constantly circling Wrigley Field. The advertising banner recited the beginning of the Miranda warning: “HILLARY: YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO REMAIN SILENT.”
I think that this had to do with the FBI raw files or Travelgate.
Thirty-two plus years later, nothing seems to have changed in terms of Hillary’s criminality.

And Chicago actually did win a WS in 2005, it just wasn’t the Cubs.

You are aware that Obama is not a Cubs fan, aren’t you? He supports the taxpayer subsidized Chicago White Sox.

He'll be lucky if he gets through two innings to be honest. That pinky finger burst immediately when he threw against Toronto. If Bauer can go out and throw four innings of 0-1 run ball, we'll consider it a major success here.
