A Cubs fan congratulates Boston |

Congrats! I even teared up a bit.
Any Cubs fan who isn't ecstatic right now...well, they've got a problem.
You realize that now the Cubs are officially the biggest losers in baseball. Don't have the Red Sox in there with us anymore. Just us. Alone. Since 1908. A bit lonely at the bottom now, but we're kinda used to it.
Anyway...congrats. And many happy returns.

1. The Cubs always were bigger losers.. |
|
..the Bostonites just got more press because they played out east. It's hard for me to have sympathy for a team with a monster payroll and their "curse," particularly when we in Chicago have to endure having both our teams usually unable to be competitive. :)

2. As a Bostonian I say... thank you. |
|
It felt good.
It was not heart-pounding, gut wrenching, seat-gripping, down to the last-play action... But it felt good.
My wish is to see the Cubs face the Sox next year for a chance at the championship.
Either way - I like the theme of broken curses... maybe we can break one more on the 2nd.

3. Now only the Cubs are special |
|
Boston has joined the ranks of other 'winners' like the Florida Marlins and California Angels.

Almost special enough to get a medal for trying.
If you know what I mean.
