As if that is a surprise.

Cubs
I sure hope it's the Cubs.
With roots in Chicago, it would make
a number of since passed family members
very happy, including my father.
I've been a Giants fan for 30 years, now.
I rooted for them in the NLCS in 1989,
and the NLDS this year. At the same time,
I knew that a Cubs victory had meaning.
The Red Sox put their old curse to rest.
Time for the Cubs to do the same.

I find it ironic that only Oakland and Tampa Bay had lower average home attendance than Cleveland in the entire league. The Indians were in contention the entire year. The players deserve a WS title, but the fans sure don't.

I hope the Cubs win. I will almost always pull for a NL team. I hate that stupid DH rule in the AL anyway.

I will pull for the Cubs, my great grandma was a long suffering Cub fan I think she lived 1893-1973 so she did go far enough back to remember their last World Series win. I have found memories of visiting her, as her second husband (she was widowed) taught me how to play black jack and poker when I was 7.

First the time in 52 years of being a baseball fan I'll be rooting for the AL entry in the WS . . . Instead of Cubs fans offering their collective forgiveness to Bartman, they should be asking him to forgive them for their shameless behavior towards one of their own. For their collective treatment of him, Cubs fans deserve to never see a WS championship . . . Go Tribe!!!

To me, as a lifelong Red Sox fan, either team winning would be fine with me as it would be a stick in the eye of Red Sox owner John Henry and his POS minion, sorry I mean team President Larry Lucchino for firing Tito Franconia, then letting Theo Epstein go to the Cubs because Larry HAD to have the final say in every decision, even though Epstein had clearly earned the right to share in the decision process.If the Cubs win the WS, Theo is a future HOF member.

I wish the Cub and Indian fans a whole lot of fun. As a die hard Met fan I enjoyed the hell out of our run last year, though we lost, it was better to be there in the lime light then not. I hope we will be back next year. Good Luck!

Imo he's a first ballot HOF member even if they get swept in the WS.
I wish there was a horse racing version of Theo Epstein to fix this game.

I really didn't care until I found out Mostpost, Horsesforcourses, and HiLIARy are Cubs fans.
Indians in 4.
