...and the Cubs manager is ready to hit the ski slopes?

I’ve been out of the baseball scene for too long, obviously!

If I had a goat, I would take it to a Hillary event.

So much for Nate Silver’s recent snark article that the Cubs, after falling behind, had less of a chance of winning the World Series than Trump had of winning the presidency. Apparently, his models don’t account for metrics like heart, enthusiasm, and the growing, tired decline of the opponent. Care to comment, Nate?

Congrats Cubs fans. Long in waiting. Enjoy the WS victory.

Maybe my Rangers will get a ring in my lifetime. :)

Now, they are trying to catch up to the Blackhawks. 🏒😆

As a Chicago native this is a before and after moment. It’s like The Wall coming down, it shouldn’t be, I know, it’s just sports, but it is. I spent 47 years in one world, and now I’m not in that world anymore. Crazy.

Madden was wearing some kind of ski goggles riding over his baseball hat. However, it had some kind of official MLB logo on the strap.

Anyone else catch that?

Oh, Congrats Cubbies!

Lol. Congrats to Cubs fans, and congrats to Theo Elstein- he’s broken two curses, that doesn’t happen by accident. Big winner? Baseball. Thankfully.

As a fan of the Cardinals, all I can say about a Cubs win is ... blechhh.

As a fellow Cards fan, methinks you're taking the wrong approach. Now we can treat them the same way we treat the Reds and Pirates, without sympathy, real or feigned. The Indians are now the special snowflakes, well celebrated in great baseball movies, with their 68 year drought. And the next most sympathetic are the 6 expansion teams that have never won it all (Rangers 56, Astros 55, Brewers 48, Padres 48, Nats 48, Mariners 40). Oddly, if you step further back, the longest drought belongs to the Cardinals, the football ones, who last won it all a year before the Indians. Not that folks in St. Louis have much sympathy for them now.
