WS Game 7: A Curse Dies and a Curse Continues

[Fred in Lynn]

"Joe Maddon in charge" - if you say so, Joe Buck. Think he owes the gods some virgins in the volcano.

 

[Blundatola]

Holy shit this is happiness!

 

[Van Everyman]

It's almost as if the Fox TV producer is trying to get as many shots of Chapman celebrating in as possible.

 

[Manzivino]

Happy for Lester, Ross, Theo and Cubs fans. What a game.

 

[strek1]

We won't care about this in 18 months when President Trump kicks off WW3 and we all get drafted.

Excellent!

[CoffeeNerdness]

Coco would have gotten a hit.

 

[Shawn O'Leary]

Fireworks all around my house right now.

 

[Fred in Lynn]

The Cubs pull it off, Lester gets another ring, and Maddon and Chapman both still wind up looking like jerks.

I'll take it.

If only. The general baseball world will heap praise on Maddon.

 

[Ale Xander]

There's your MVP I would think

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

He really could have airmailed that throw. If only.

 

[MyDaughterLovesTomGordon]

Great, great game. Love this sport.

Hell of a game. Cubs win. Good for them, too bad for Cleveland.

There'll be a hot time in the old town tonight.

 

[tbrep]

And you people called the Heyward contract a bust: he delivered the game winning pep talk!

 

[McBride11]

Heyward in the team meeting " Guys i cant hit for shit, so im counting on all of you!"

 

[brandonchristensen]

"You called the team meeting, why?"
"Because I can't hit a baseball, I might as well do something positive."

 

[DanoooME]

So Jason Heyward, how did it feel to have all of your teammates carry your corpse to a World Series title?

 

[Return of the Dewey]

Rain delays/rainouts always help team without momentum....see 2004 ALCS

[Curll]

All of Chicago is writing in Theo Epstein.

 

[MiracleOfO2704]

Bryant was smiling as he fielded it.

Ha, Rizzo had to stifle an f-bomb on Cubs radio seconds after Justin Grimm belted out, "how about that shit?"

 

[aksoxfan]

Heyward getting interviewed?!

He gave the big Papi talk during the rain delay.

 

[tbrep]

Heyward: "Front office gave us everything we could have asked for" HAHAHA - amazing how he keeps us a straight face

 

[rembrat]

Lester is from Texas, ya'll know that?

 

[Ale Xander]

Lester now tied with Ortiz with three

 

[bob burda]

Theo now free to start the political career - or eventually return to Boston. Suck it Lucchino, indeed.
