Oh no! That is the death punch to the Cubbies winning!

 

J/K

 

Game 7 ... Cubs' game-winning HR will be foul by an inch down the right field line. Next pitch, strike 3. injuns win.

Who are you? Nostradamus?

 

The Tribe would have had the other half of the 9th stanza to form a rebuttal!

 

:-P

 

But... I like the cut of your jib!

I want the Cubs to win so we can cross them off the 'cursed list'. Red Sox were removed in 04. Cleveland as a City this year with the Cavs winning.

How the media never mentions the Bills in the same breath as the Cubs is beyond me.

'83 Bears is why.

Because it has been 106 years... BFLo Bills only 51 or so.

 

Give it time. ;-P

 

Cubs=most unlucky team ever!

Zero chance of that happening. Absolutely zero. They may be heading back to Cleveland Sunday night by themselves. Cubs may close it out this weekend.

calm down it was a joke. I'm not even an Indians fan.

Game 7.

9th inning 2 outs.

Cubs down by 1 with a man on 1st.

Kyle Schwarber up at the plate.

Hanging curve ball that Schwarber crushes.

 

Headed towards the foul pole....and....it's....wide right.

Or...The Cubs win.

 

Like Willy Wonka would say:

 

"Oh, And Charlie? Don't forget about the guy who got everything he wanted!...

 

..Well, he lived happily ever after."

 

Or would they?

 

Honestly... Wouldn't a Cubs win change their whole existence?

 

Sic transit gloria mundi

Welp

Marv was shown on TV last night between innings and given a nice little tribute of sorts.

 

His story of attending the game in 1945 was fantastic and should be listened to at WGR 550'S audio vault.

 

He and his buddy were in the Army Air Corps (precursor to what would become the Air Force) and rushed down to Wrigley to try and get tickets for Game 6. They were in uniform. Marv said the line was a mile long but they moved anyone in uniform to the front of the line (pretty cool) so Marv and his buddy got tickets.

 

They attended the game, the Cubs had to win to stay alive, and they DID WIN.

 

So who says Marv is bad luck for the Cubs.

 

Pretty cool that he was at that game back then; I'd love to talk to Marv about that era as he is bright, still sharp as a tack and I have an interest in WWII.

No doubt he could have summed it up perfectly to all the other Cub fans:

 

"Where else would you rather be than right here, right now?"
