Congrats to the Cubs

The Cubs did it! They won the World Series! http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/baseball/cubs/ct-cubs-win-world-series-sullivan-spt-1103-20161102-story.html

After 100+ years of drought they did it! (after a rain delay that is).

Excellent come back... after a 3-1 deficit, even without the home-court-advantage. I watched only a few minutes on a couple games... lots of waiting. Mostly 0 to 0 inning after inning. And in one game, boom there was a home-run with 4 points! Baseball can be full of surprises but you gotta wait (and see them spit).

Now I have seen victory for just about every Chicago sports team: Bears, Bulls, Sox, Blackhawk, now the Cubs. Waita minute... it is ... the World Series? Did any other country participate? No. When the Bulls win, they call themselves World Champions too. Is it really true that nobody else in the world beat American teams?

Congrats Cubs. You have made a lot of Chicago people happy.

I may even buy Cubs shirts to celebrate this once in a century event.
