Should be fun.
Cubs look strong but the Indians have manufactured wins with whoever Francona pencils in the lineup all year.
I have to get this off my chest tho
It hasn't been 108 years since Chicago won a championship - It's been 3
It has not been 108 years since Chicago won the World Series - It's been 11.
One of the city's 5 pro teams has been a dysfunctional franchise for generations while the rest have won - And I'm obligated to feel some kind of affection?
Nonsense- Go Indians

(3,342 posts)From a baseball history perspective I'm Cubs.
From the perspective of an AL > NL fan, Indians.
And my dad loves and has loved the Indians forever so there's that too.
More than anything, I always get a little sad when it's time for the World Series. Because that means it's almost winter and a long wait until better weather and the return of baseball.

And, nobody is asking you to feel any sort of affection for the Cubs. If you want to root for Cleveland, that is your right. Go right ahead.

I'll stand by my statement.
Thanks for your stamp of approval - now that I know my opinion is cubby approved, my sleep should be angelic.
Not sure how i made it before now...

(32,967 posts)Quite frankly, I don't give a shit who you root for. I'm just pointing out that nobody is forcing you to choose. But, if getting bent out of shape over nothing makes you feel good, have at it.
