The Cubs Won The World Series

Yes, I am well aware that some time has now passed since this happened, but I’ve been busy. 🙂

The Cubs won the World Series.

I could get used to saying that.

It was an incredible season and the memories made, watching (and agonizing over) the games with family, will never be forgotten. What an amazing experience for us and for all Cubs fans.

My “W” flag has been flying in front of the house since the night they won it all, and will be staying out there until the 2017 season begins. Gotta love it.

Go Cubs, Go!

The Cubs are in the World Series!

Still elated. Still can’t completely believe it. Still replaying this clip, over and over.

The Chicago Cubs…yes, the Chicago Cubs…the Cubs…are in…the World Series!

YEAH!!!

Can’t wait to see what happens. It’s going to be a lot of fun!

Go Cubs, Go!

Cubs Win!

My gosh, this was a crazy game.

I was doing a fair amount of doubting before the comeback for the ages in the 9th inning. What a rally…what a finish! The Cubs showed a lot of heart out there.

This lifelong fan is beyond excited for what’s happening and what (hopefully) might be to come in this year’s playoffs.

Go Cubs, Go!

“We Had Some Help”

Just watch this. It’s amazing.

Dee Gordon of the Miami Marlins hit a home run in his first at bat, the team’s first at bat, since the death of their star pitcher Jose Fernandez.

As his quote on the graphic mentions, it was the farthest he had ever hit a home run – and it was no coincidence.

What a moment.

W!!!

I still can’t believe it! My beloved Chicago Cubs took down the mighty St. Louis Cardinals Tuesday night to wrap up an epic series and set off a celebration that hasn’t been experienced by Cubs fans in, well, forever.

They did it! They really did it. This young team, not expected to do much this year, outplayed the class of the division and the league, their arch rivals to advance to the National League Championship Series. And they did it at home!

I can only imagine what it was like being inside the hallowed grounds of Wrigley Field for this game, or Game 3 the night before. Two amazing performances with tons of fireworks and drama…and two Cubs victories to win the series.

Cubs fans everywhere are going bonkers with jubilation, and I am included in that list. I danced in the street last night. I chest bumped a co-worker who’s a fellow Cubs fan at work this morning. My parents refurnished their bathroom cabinets yesterday to fend off the nerves of anticipation for the game. The excitement is overflowing!

It’s an amazing feeling, and I hope the Cubbies can keep it going. Congratulations, guys and thank you for providing a lot of people with a lot of joy.

Go Cubs, Go.
