CONGRATULATIONS TO THE CHICAGO CUBS, WORLD SERIES CHAMPS!


84

Congratulations to the Chicago Cubs, who just won their first World Series since 1908!

I started this season believing that this would be the season that my Texas Rangers would finally win their first World Series title but it was not to be.  After a great regular season, they lost the division series to the Blue Jays.  As much as I wish my Rangers had gone further in the postseason, I’ll always cherish the memories.

But if my Rangers couldn’t win the World Series, I’m glad that the Cubs did.  Going into the series as an underdog to the Cleveland Indians, the Cubs came back from behind and won Game 7, in extra innings with 10 runs to Cleveland’s 8.  Both Chicago and Cleveland should be proud of their teams tonight!

Way to go, Cubs!

And here’s hoping my Rangers make it next season!

Congratulations on the victory, Chicago!  You earned it!
