My favorite teams
1960 world series, Yankees/Pirates. Research it noobs
It is not. No drama. Just boring. I am just that personality type I suppose. I don't like "super hero" movies for the same reason because you know the ending. "Oh no, the superhero is going to lose... Oh wait!!!" Just boring, predictable script.
There was nothing predictable about that series or game. If you think so, you've clearly never watched sports.
Game 7 will go down as one of the most talked about single games for drama/outcome ever. Not unlike the Pats/Seattle SB.
You aren't gambler, nor are you a critical thinker.
You are honestly suggesting that a team was ordained - over a 162 game season?
Surely we can agree that the Cubs winning was the best story/thing for baseball (and going game 7) but you think it was fixed? Is that what you are saying?
If these games/series are fixed then why wouldn't every WS feature big market teams like the Cubs, Yankees, Boston, Atlanta, etc. I'm sure Cleveland and KC aren't first choices for 'big revenue/revitalize the game'

That would suggest that EVERY season/WS is fixed... I am not suggesting that. On the other end of the coin are you suggesting that NONE are?
Ahhh, now I get it. You're a wrestling fan.
I heard both Dave Hebners have a more consistent strike zone than Larry Vanover.
No... But I was when I was a kid. Then I quickly got sick of the predicable outcomes. I was surprised when Hogan was beaten in the "two Dave Hebner" match. That was different.
No idea what you're talking about but I think I'm about done with this thread.
Did any rational person ever doubt from day one of this season the Cubs would win the World Series?? If this is the best baseball has to offer, boy is it BORING. Boring series, boring game. I wanted to be a Cubs (am a Bears fan) / baseball fan but there is just no excitement. I remember when they were down 3-1 and my wife was like "oh no" and I just looked at her weird... "Um, there is ZERO chance this does not get to game 7 and there is ZERO chance the Cubs do not win." Like the MLB was going the let this cash-cow end 2 games early and loose all that additional revenue.
If this game 7 is one of the "best" how boring are the others!?
Really, are you sure? If you were a Hollywood screenwriter what would the WS be...? Perhaps two teams who haven't won since the wheel was invented... The team with the "curse" seeing themselves down 3-1 and facing the drama of elimination... A magical game 7 that includes the beloved retiree hitting a home run? Come on. This script was written before this season ever began.

It sounds like you're simply jealous that the Cubs did indeed enjoy a magical, movie-like day of glory while your team is an irrelevant garbage pile.
sorry about that.
Sorry, bro - don't let me spoil it. I was just venting a bit as I really wanted to get into a new sport (for me in baseball) and was just frustrated I wasted time as (for me) it was just uninspiring and unexciting. And I of my ignorance, I was surprised to see anyone really thought there was drama. That is all. I really shouldn't have hijacked this thread. Seriously, sorry bro.
I am obviously biased, but considering the two teams involved in this series AND the way this game evolved throughout the 10 innings (or WS Game #8 - Sudden Death), however you want to look at it...Is this the best game in WS history? Is this the best WS in history? Is this the best sporting moment in sports history? Where does this game/series fall?
Just like everyone else posting on here, I have waited my whole life for this! Unbelievable season, unbelievable NLDS, unbelievable NLCS, and unbelievable WS! Have fun partying in ChiTown! I will be stuck here in Cards Nation, but rest assured, I am unloading on all of the Cards fans here for all the bullshit I have had to put up with for the last 40+years! CONGRATS FELLW CUBS FANS! GO CUBS GO!
If you think that last night's game was unexciting then there really isn't a new sport for you to watch. It's like wanting a hotter pepper or some shit. If the Komodo Dragon Chili Pepper isn't hot enough, I got nothing for you.
If you need something MORE exciting than last night's crazy game 7 of the WS, then the only thing I can suggest is a to the death bum fights.
