2016 NLCS: Chicago Cubs (1) vs. Los Angeles Dodgers (3) - Series Discussion

[darko]

The Tribe havent won in years, not like Cleveland hasnt suffered either.

48 is not 08 but i do see your point.

 

[td_ice]

Yeah, congrats to guys like Wrigley and Murray, and a few others.

Theo Epstein vs. Terry Francona

So much for the Dodgers.

I guess the pressure was too much. Poor Kershaw, guess he isn't that good in the post season getting paddled the way he did by the much,much superior Cubs.

You can cry, you can blink, I'll bet slot of people will be doing that tonight.

Why are people blinking?

Blow it out of your hide already.

Why don't you crawl back into your cave, troll. It's really unfortunate that you're allowed to poison this board with your pathetic statements.

Also I hate to break it to you but everybody blinks. Even the players on the team you pretend to cheer for.

There are few of their fans around that remember them winning.

 

[Halladay]

I believe the word slot is incorrectly used in the message above.

That NL trophy is HUGE. lol.

At least Chicago as a city has won championships recently. Up until the Cavs this year the Cleveland sportscape has been pretty depressing since '48.

Other than Adrian Gonzalez, the rest of the Dodger regulars were no-shows offensively at Wrigley. (Even Ethier's pinch-hit wind-blown HR was pinch-hit).

Seager and Turner, who carried them offensively against the Nats, didn't really do much outside of a few swings in games 3-4.

Utley/Puig/Grandal.... yeesh.

Other than his HR off Scherzer, Joc Pederson didn't do a lot these playoffs.

Lester-Baez co-MVPs.

I don't remember the Mets getting that trophy last year. Unless I celebrated too much and was too drunk to remember

Looks like they modified it:

 

[Terry Yake]

pretty crazy thinking about all the fans in their 80s and 90s who have never before seen a cubs WS during their lives and now they're this close for the first time in over 70 years

should be a great series

My old man's 69 years old. He's as happy as I've ever heard him in my life.

Why the hell did FS1 not go on location to Dodger Stadium when their studios are in LA but they traveled to Wrigley for all the games?

Nice, that's awesome.

Great series. Pretty upset after Hill blanked the Cubs. I can breath now. Didnt like our chances against Kershaw. Was expecting a 7th game. Dodgers gave it a go. The better team won... at home... on Saturday. 4 more to go.

 

[c9777666]

In 5 playoff games at Wrigley Field this year, Cubs starters have allowed only 4 runs.

 

[ChiGuySez]

Hendricks got his nevers out of the way in his loss to Kershaw. Boys got a chance to see Kershaws best and were primed for the rematch. Kershaw didnt have it tonight. Cubs jumped on him early.

 

[Teemu]

And people laughed when the Cubs built that World Series celebration room

 

[Reality Check]

I imagine BWC is currently chanting "Go Cubs Go" with the rest of us

 

[Cubs2024WSChamps]

Myth was the wrong word. Mystique. The Kershaw mystique. The complete slobbering the media has done over Kershaw and his "legacy". He has to beat the Cubs, and if he does, he has to make an appearance on Sunday if Hill is the suckage.

Considering I have tickets tomorrow, I am under the assumption the Cubs will win. I see a broken team in the Dodgers whom let the Cubs run the score up two games in a row. Listening to the Cubs interviews, they are looking forward to Kershaw.

Pressure? Not on this Cubs team. Maybe I should wear a Cubs hat and headphones while seeing if i can bring a goat into Wrigley tomorrow...

Called it.

Big round of Apple cause for the great Clayton Kershaw.

As I said before, he isn't a good post season pitcher. As for his "legacy", he can have Playoff Choker emblazoned on his Cooperstown bust.

I truly hate to say I was right yet again, but......
