World Series 2016 Reflection: Major League Baseball Wins

What in the hell has this world come to? Gone are the memories of Leon Durham booting that ground ball in the 1984 ALCS. Gone forever is the picture of a black cat walking past the Shea Stadium on deck circle as Ron Santo watched in horror. Farewell is the ”loveable losers” moniker that was long synonymous with the Chicago Cubs. Gone is Steve Bartman’s reach, Moises Alou‘s frustration, Alex Gonzalez‘s error, and Dusty Baker‘s mismanagement of the Chicago pitching staff. Now to the Chicago Cubs and their fans, congratulations.
