We bought these tickets like 2 months ago. I think they were about $40-50 a piece for upper deck seats.

Should be fun, haven't been to a game for awhile, though a bit chilly.

If the Cubs doe chase Waino early, it's going to hard to do anything at the game that would indicate any sort of respect. I'm sure as hell not hoping for him to pitch a gem but I certainly would hope Cubs fans will show him some respect.

Cubs ain't chasing Waino early, his whole gimmick is wrecking the poo poo out of the Cubs.

If it's unlikely he's retiring I kinda imagine there won't be much of a reaction. I could see the Cubs org putting something up on the video board though.

If Waino isn't retiring, people are probably just going to boo him lightly like it's a normal game. They're not going to put something up on the video board that's like "this dude has been on the Cardinals forever, he may or may not re-sign, but he's probably not retiring, so let's give him a round of applause just in case."

So what's the ideal scenario if the Cubs win the division? Do we want the Dodgers to win the West to avoid them in the NLDS?

The Cubs will be playing a very good team in the DS no matter what, and wishing to play one team over another seems like a good way to bring about your own demise, a la the 2015 Mets, who the Cubs went 7-0 against in the regular season and then got swept out of the NLCS by them.
