I am not celebrating anything tonight until the final out and won't say its over until the Indians win the 4th game.

I had my heart broken in 1997

My feelings of dread have subsided with the Cavs winning. I can't say how I'd feel on a closeout game, though.

Standing room only tickets for Game 5 in Wrigley that were selling for $2,400 yesterday are now on StubHub for as low as $750

 

[amishpriest99]

Had a blast at the Ballpark this year. Tickets were very reasonable too.

No matter the outcome of this series, I expect Tickets to shoot way up.

Didn't get to make it back to Ohio due to wedding related shenanigans. Hope to take my soon to be wife next year .

2014 Giants and Warriors?

Warriors were 2015. I think for baseball/basketball it was in the 80's but I don't remember the teams.

 

[friskykillface]

Fuck Cleveland
Pats gonna win the Super Bowl to cleanse the sports world

Pats X Red Sox won in 04
Red Sox X Celtics won in 07/08 , almost had a triple sox X pats X Celtics championship but the pats fucked up

 

[Danthrax]

When was the last time a team won 2 championships in a year anyway? I'm trying to remember but I can't did the life of me.

pittsburgh in 2009 when the steelers and penguins did it. [edit: beaten like the warriors]

Fun fact: Cleveland did it in 1948 when the Indians and Browns won!

 

[mreddie]

Well...

 

[Dany]

COME BACK BABY

COME BACK

😭😭😭😭

Miller time is finally over

 

[Grover Cleveland]

Don't call it a comeback

 

[J2 Cool]

Was waiting on that one. The Andrew Miller is human homerun

 

[Lee Chaolan]

Well, if Miller is gonna give up a run this series, might as well be when you have the 6 run cushion.

 

[Lkr]

Warriors were 2015. I think for baseball/basketball it was in the 80's but I don't remember the teams.

Angels and Lakers in 02

 

[Mortemis]

Miller's postseason perfectness is gone

 

[BFIB]

Get that man a Gatorade Heyward.

 

[Windu]

He's human!

 

[Doogdogg]

I don't understand Miller pitching here. Maybe Francona wants to destroy the entire city spirits.

 

[3N16MA]

He's probably the best out of the bullpen. But then you have Allen and Otero, two of their other top relief pitchers. Shaw had an up and down year, but he's generally pretty great. The rest of their relief pitchers are fine, but kind of whatever/inning and job specific.

As for starters, Kluber, Carrasco, Salazar, Tomlin, Bauer. If you don't recognize some of those names, that's understandable since their number 2 and 3 starters got hurt last month. I've personally been a huge fan of Tomlin for years and feel he can be a number 2, but he's had a lot of injuries and isn't a power guy. Salazar spits hot fire but is still young and I don't know if he can do 200 innings yet.

Reminds me how they have Kluber and Carrasco locked up on some amazing deals.

 

[Jebusman]

Is the dream alive?

The dream isn't alive is it

Ah.

 

[Elfforkusu]

I want to believe

Damnit cubs, make this series interesting.

 

[Malo]

Angels and Lakers in 02

I'm pretty sure that doesn't count.

 

[Jay Shadow]

Miller is trash now. Time to get rid of him.

Someone send Fowler to the Orioles.

 

[Mortemis]

Fuck Cleveland

We're all forever grateful to Eli.

 

[J2 Cool]

Id almost want to sit Bryant, but his easy approach will probably net some hits against a lesser pitcher. He needs to change his mentality, think things have come too easy to him, like this MVP

Thanks for filling me in, didn't realize they were sitting on injuries. Good stuff.

 

[Lkr]

I'm pretty sure that doesn't count.

Why not? At least the Angels claim to be in LA now. Warriors are Oakland as fuck

 

[J2 Cool]

That Fowler hr was more a hit for tmrw than anything. Cubs need to believe they can hit some long balls to have a chance

 

[Gigglepoo]

Is Miller going to be able to pitch tomorrow?

 

[TwntyOneTwlv]

Is Miller going to be able to pitch tomorrow?

There's no way he doesn't pitch tomorrow.

 

[Windu]

Is Miller going to be able to pitch tomorrow?

Bauer will give up 5 runs so he wont be needed.

 

[mreddie]

I will sum up the last 2 games.

 

[Lee Chaolan]

Is Miller going to be able to pitch tomorrow?

Would have been sweet to see Otero come in for that 8th (Miller was only at 7 pitches) with the 6 run lead, then have Miller be able to go 3+ innings tomorrow

 

[TheSecondSpitter]

I'm pretty sure that doesn't count.

Neither should Devils/MFY in 2000.

 

[brentech]

Facebook live commercials make facebook live look like the shittiest service out there.

 

[amishpriest99]

Is Miller going to be able to pitch tomorrow?

I'm sure he's still good for an inning or two.

 

[Malo]

Why not? At least the Angels claim to be in LA now. Warriors are Oakland as fuck

But they weren't in '02.

Neither should Devils/MFY in 2000.

I thought that was obvious.

 

[Jay Shadow]

I have yet to see a Facebook Live commercial that doesn't make it look like Facebook Live is a horrible thing.

 

[Lee Chaolan]

Bauer will give up 5 runs so he wont be needed.

Starting Salazar would be cool or hell, even Merritt from the ALCS. Then have Bauer in the pen.

 

[CygnusXS]

I have full confidence that Miller will pitch tomorrow, and then be traded in December.

 

[M.W.]

Those free tacos gotta be extra salty in Chicago

 

[Danthrax]

We're all forever grateful to Eli.

Y'know, the Cleveland Bulldogs were absorbed into the New York Giants decades ago, so I'm willing to claim that as a partial Cleveland victory against the Patriots' tyranny, LoL

 

[amishpriest99]

Starting Salazar would be cool or hell, even Merritt from the ALCS. Then have Bauer in the pen.

I think I'd feel a lot better with this plan.

 

[Alex_Mexico]

Cubs playing like shit tonight. Holy crap. Pathetic.

 

[alr1ght]

I have full confidence that Miller will pitch tomorrow, and then be traded in December.

Nah theyve got him locked up for 2 more years.

 

[Choomp]

I will sum up the last 2 games.

Ugh now just being reminded how fucked that scene was

But then again I guess in that case it works good sir

 

[Gigglepoo]

Facebook live commercials make facebook live look like the shittiest service out there.

Truth in advertising.

Cavs win NBA championship
Indians on the verge of a WS Championship
Browns win 1 game?
