t bothers you enough to comment? I don't understand why? Most people where I grew up were Braves and Cowboys fans. I wonder why?

I've never seen more Cub fans in and around Austin in my life over the past couple of weeks.

Yeah. I figure most from Austin would be Ranger die hards.

When I was young it was Braves on TNT or Cubs on WGN. Most everyone chose Braves.

Of course I am a saints fan so suffering is in my blood.

This series has 7 written all over it. Unfortunately, I've got Indians in 7. This is Cleveland's year. (excluding the Browns of course) As much as I want the Cubs to win it, I foresee an epic melt by the cubs fans. Probably will lead going into the 9th when Chapman gives up a Napoli walk off. Regardless, this is a dream matchup and one I would want to happen if the Giants didn't make it.

Cubs in 5. I feel like them winning at Wrigley is the only way this can go down

Indians in 7. An all time classic.

That would be my luck...I'll be in Chicago for Games 3 and 4...leaving Sunday. Although plans could change if up 3-1.

As a Tribe fan, I'm going into this thing with record low expectations. Hard to believe you'll hang when the Cubs have seemingly found their stroke in the last two games and you have 4 key guys missing from your roster (I think a lot of the Salazar coming out of the pen talk is mind games).

Cleveland needs two bang up starts from Bauer. I mean, he's got a pitch like a top 5 pick in the draft and take two games. And really it's hard to bet the house on that happening at this point.

I think Chris Guillot surprises everyone by flying out to Cle to will Bauer to victory like he did in the L.A. regional years ago.

I don't trust him enough, they've had a nice break so the rotation can move around I guess. Wonder how that finger looks now

Fyi to anyone interested, wrigley rooftops put out for sale any remaining rooftops they have left this morning. Still some available but they jacked the prices up even further than what I already paid for my game 4 rooftop tickets by $650 more.

Cubs in 5...or at least I hope..bringing my dad up to Chicago Thursday and we are staying through Monday to soak up the experience. I used to laugh at my dad and grandfather when I was a kid because they would always tell me the Cubs were cursed. I always shrugged it off until 2003...

I saw $1k+ this morning.

Found a guy with 2 rooftop tickets through a mutual friend. Waiting to see how much.
