Everything will be fine in Chicago. :-) That entire game was like a microcosm of being a Cubs fan. I was trembling, crying, exasperated, mad, in disbelief, resigned, relaxed, shaking again, crying again, ugh. Yesterday my lips actually went numb when they won. I thought I was having a stroke! Haha.

Those last 4 innings just about killed me. This is what this victory means to me.

As a White Sox fan (South Sider) I'm happy they won just so we don't have to hear about the drought anymore! Now if we can send Donald Trump into a drought all will be good in the world. Vote!

I wonder what the truancy rate will be today in Chicago? Ha, congrats to the fans.

Congrats to the Cubs and their fans - thank you for giving us a headline that doesn't involve the election.

As a diehard Cardinals fan, I was secretly rooting for them to pull it out and win this one. Then when they did, I had a sinking feeling at this new Cubs-champion reality Cards fans live in.
Congrats, and hopefully your fandom won't become as annoying as the Red Sox fandom.

I am not a baseball fan, but I watched when I saw it went into extra innings. Reason being, when Googling yesterday to find out if Empire would come on, one article said the last time the Cubs won, the Ottoman Empire still existed. I did not know it had been so long!
