The Cubs winning their first two games in St. Louis behind the arms of Lackey (Game 1) and Heyward (Game 2), heh heh.

Lackey beating Sale in the battle of the Chicago Redasses.
I will vow, for the sake of peace, not to complain about David Ross between now and his first start next year- 10/26/2015

Addy's sick game-saving catch at Wrigley against the Pirates. This one.

The comeback win against Milwaukee (the day after they 'backed into' the division title), and the first of what was to become many celebrations on the field afterwards will always have a warm spot in my heart.

The second Arrieta no hitter in April, followed by the fact that they apparently all went and had a giant pizza party in Grandpa's room and then kicked the shit out of the Reds again the next day (inspiring Thom's ENOUGH ALREADY rant) despite their hangovers.

I'm not sure what it says about me that this was one of my absolute favorite moments of the regular season. I can never get enough Thomenfreude.

What makes "enough already" even better was right as he was saying it, Kris smoked a double to the right-center field wall for another run. Eat shit, tHom.

Game 6 of the NLCS was pretty cool.

After watching that MLB World Series documentary, I wonder when the cackling that this finally happened will end. I kind of hope it never ends.

Probably when the Cubs win again next year.

It is December.  It still hasn't sunk in.  THE CUBS WON THE WORLD SERIES!  How is that possible?  Did I dream it?   
If I had known that I was going to live this long I would have taken better care of myself.   (Plagerized from numerous other folks)

Seriously?  The trophy is going on tour and is going to make personal appearances?  In Rockford?  Is it also expected to say a few words?

Apparently it wanted to check out the local cuisine.

I can't believe I even know these people. I'm ashamed of my internet life.

That billboard is embarrassing.  But then I have never been to Rockford.

All Mexican food is terrible, so this billboard is fine.

Well, Kansas City *is* known for their Mexican cuisine.
