World Series: Cubs vs Indians

[spidernat]

Cubs could win a couple more and those douchebag come lately fans will pretend they have suffered for decades, just like the many red sox fans that popped up around 2004. But then they will go back to the pack and those pieces of crap will disappear or gravitate to another team like phillie fans.

I thought this was the 'skins' thread.

I figured China would be in there somewhere.    They can fart 5,000,000.

Unless you like non competitive blowouts you might want to wait for the lacrosse or cross country matchups of those two schools?

I flipped it over after I saw your post and Michigan was havin' their way.

UMD better hope the trainers packed the KY (industrial size).

You'll witness more of this in the DC area because so many people come from all over the country.  But I wouldn't compare Cub fans (temp or perm) to any type of Philly fan.

Watched the Cubs at the White House.      Nice welcome from a Sox fan.

It was pretty funny.    They joked about all that.    Plus, one of the Ricketts sons is gonna be in the Trump administration and the daughter is a big Obama supporter.     Lots of good fun and laughs.    If ya get a chance to see it, you'll enjoy it as a fan.    Your boy Theo was even funny.

Haha Theo is a charming guy he really is. I'm sure they'll show it on our local news tonight since nothing Addison Russell has done this off season has gone undocumented by them
