2016 MLB thread. THE CUBS HAVE BROKEN THE CURSE! Chicago Cubs are your 2016 World Series champions

[jumpman ii]

Are they bad? I honestly haven't noticed. (I have a few Red Sox fan friends tho, so maybe I don't notice the over the topness)

They were always annoying but it's worse now. I remember Sox fans picking fights with A's fans after they won. I'm sure my Giants fanbase has been annoying since 2010

 

[jumpman ii]

I really hope the Cubs win it all. No fanbase deserves to go over 100 years like the Cubs have.










Except the Dodgers **** them and their fans

I'm already annoyed at what the fanbase will become by then. I know it will be bad bad bad by then.


I apologize to everyone in advance. Truly.

Yeah, except I've been a Cubs fan since the last time they won a world series, so clearly you're understanding of my point is way over your head. I also have followed the particular group of players since their inception, unlike what will be in 2-3 years.

I even used an old joke for you DSA/JRS/Jumpman, etc, so nobody can try and get extra jabs in.

Thank you jesus.  My fantasy squad has been suffering lately.

Already posted this in the fantasy thread, but in other news, Jake Lamb to the DL so it looks like it's Yasmani Tomas time in Arizona.  Interested to see his defense at 3B...

me too. I was a big fan of the 04 and 07 teams. '13 I didn't really care much but I also wasn't watching baseball as much in general.

I'm sure he got in many tavern fights arguing Banks and Brock were better than Mantle and Maris.
