I can pretty honestly say I am satisfied for a long time. This is the best thing ever. I can watch next year without worrying and living and dying with each game. My god.

Nothing's going to get me down today. Although I 100% seriously had dreams that the earth was disintegrating last night.

RC Cola posted:Who's ready for the Bears to go undefeated and win the superbowl? I'm basically personally boycotting football this year because of the head injury stuff, and the WS victory will make it much easier to make it through. Edit: aside from a few doofy playoff posters (remember that guy that was patronizingly rooting for the Cubs in game 5 so they could just have one at home before losing? LOL) I do feel bad for the Cleveland fans. The good news is both teams will be good next year and maybe we will be back here a year from now again. beejay fucked around with this message at 17:31 on Nov 3, 2016 |

If they had it on a weekend I think every highway would be backed up for miles with people trying to get into the city. It would be insanity. I want to buy a hat but not sure what. I'm going to get the "official" world series champions hat, the gray one everyone was wearing in the interviews. It will probably just sit on a shelf. I'd like to get the 59fifty with the world series patch like they wore in the games but it's sold out. Spent so much time looking at that hat during the games thinking about what it meant and I'd like to have that to hold onto. I feel like a regular Cubs hat with a world series champions patch on it would be kind of meh. I dunno what's everyone else getting?

It's totally just for the novelty factor and bragging rights of saying you were there. Being at Grant Park would be neat because the players will speak but yeah.

Well I am antisocial and also I can't go to the parade so I'm biased maybe. Carl Edwards is awesome, I can't think of anything he did this season that was negative at all and I'm glad he got to play a big part.

I don't think that guy can get bored of baseball. I think he'd still be in Boston if it suited him. He has everything he wants right now. I can't think of anywhere else he could go to turn around a historical streak besides Cleveland at this point haha.

Does anyone know if the hats with the "Postseason" or "World Series" patches on them historically are restocked after the fact? Or is it done after they sell out? Specifically I want this one but it's not in stock in my size. I want the hat like they wear on the field. edit: I don't even know if those are out of stock or they just don't make them in those sizes.

I agree although I have a number of hats with older style logos on them that I like. I keep having people telling me to get the one that says "World Series Champions" on the side patch but I don't want that one, I want the "World Series" patch because that's what they wore on the field and I was in disbelief every time I saw a player with that patch on their hat.

One of the informal conditions to his current deal was that they would not do a QO again, I read.

The Cubs, a team built of free agents, no homegrown talent, no drafting. edit: lol the Cardinals are a top 10 payroll and like one good free agent's salary below the Cubs. beejay fucked around with this message at 01:22 on Nov 5, 2016 |

Yeah I was hoping that Fowler being so front and center during all the celebrations and the SNL thing and all meant he was staying. A QO doesn't bode well for that... although he had one last year... I'll hope for the best.

I thought the Mets paying Bonilla was almost over but nope, they still have 19 years to go. That is amazing.

Dexo posted:Is probably the worst year in my entire 28 years on this earth. This is the truth. This year I have experienced family tragedy, job uncertainty, and the loss of many beloved musical figures, and of course this election, yet the Cubs won. Such a weird loving year.

This sucks, I didn't expect him to go to St Louis for some reason. It's lovely that he didn't even really want to go there it seems, and Cardinal fans bitching about getting him makes it even worse. edit: It's also funny to see Cardinal fans still talking about overpaying Heyward when St Louis offered him a similar deal and just lost out. Not like they just let him walk. In fact, didn't they offer him more and fans were pissed he picked the Cubs anyway? lol. beejay fucked around with this message at 18:45 on Dec 9, 2016 |

Looks like it was more guaranteed money with the Cardinals but more per year earlier with the Cubs, plus the opt-out. Either way, people really shouldn't be acting like the Cards knew Heyward was not going to be very good so they just let him go to trick them stupid Cubbies.

Timby posted:The way the Cubs treated him two years ago was just so unbelievably lovely. I mean... if one of the best managers in baseball becomes available right before your window opens what can you do. You don't let Joe Maddon slip away for Rick Renteria. I swear to god Cubs fans here would be happier if we had not won the World Series.
