Picking up for 89Hen's failure to follow through.

Blue Jays - Cubs

AL Central bias. One long suffering fan base comes away happy in November.

Trolley Dodgers.

That's before they moved to California.

Damn, Cleveland's bullpen works 8 1/3 innings in the win last night. Tough for Toronto to come back now.

I still think the Cubs can pull this out. But their bats better wake up.

I need to go back and look, but it seems that Toronto's season has been a series of winning and losing streaks, especially in the last half.

Edit: They won 6 in a row prior to these first 3 games of the ALCS. Prior to that, they lost 3 in a row. Prior to that, they won 4 out of 5. Early in Sept, they lost 4 in a row. At the end of August, they won 4 in a row. In the beginning of August, they won 4 in a row. In July, they had winning streaks of 6, 3, and 3 games. It's a bit odd. It just depends on when you catch these guys.

Right now, the Jays are looking more and more like the Maple Leafs.

When the Nats lost, my interest disappeared too. Are the playoffs still going on?

I hope the Dodgers win so I don't have to listen to all the annoying Cubs bandwagon fans around here.

Dodgers and their glam Hollywood fans suck worse.

I'm all in for the Cleveland Native American Indigenous Peoples!

I'm not sure which is worse; you thinking that or you saying that.

Like asking if the Majors still happen in golf if Tiger Woods isn't playing.

FWIW, I watched easily parts of 125 Nats games this year. I'm not sure I've watched a single inning of any other game that didn't involve them.

I get that. But my brother in law is pushing his mid-70's, grew up in Chicago and has been a Cubs fan all his life. It would be pretty cool for him to experience a World Series win.

I hardly watch any regular season games other than the Mariners, but the postseason is still pretty entertaining, even if you don't have a dog in the fight.

I think it would actually be a lot better had I not had a dog in the fight to begin with. I'm extremely bitter about the Nats losing again. Plus, I'd rather watch hockey, NCAA or NFL.

Gonzalez was safe at the plate...just saying.

Yeah, thought so too. Amazing how they can even screw up replays (although the NFL routinely gets the calls wrong even after replay as well). Probably wouldn't have impacted the game - the Cubs were already under tons of pressure anyway. Being 0-0 versus 1-0 in the game wasn't going to make much of a difference. Biggest thing would've been the inning staying alive.

I totally get that too. i have a good friend that has been a Cub's fan all his life. It would be great for him to see them win. The bandwagon fans are just annoying the hell out of me. Same thing with the Royals fans, Cardinals fans, etc.
