They Did It! They Finally Did It!!

It's been a over 12 hours of getting some sleep and think over the event that just happen last night/this morning. The only thing that comes to my mind when thinking about it over and over is....they did it! They finally did it!

The Chicago Cubs are the 2016 World Series Champions!! It still hasn't stuck in just yet. It's hard to believe that this day has finally come to us Cub fans. As everyone knows its been 108 years since their last win and 71 years since they appeared in a World Series.

This season was one hell of a ride, as the Cubs really took over the National League Central division throughout the regular season. The playoffs seemed to be the unscripted of what a real reality show looks like as just when you think they're about out, they claw and fight their way back, against the San Francisco Giants, the Los Angeles Dodgers and yes down 3-1 against the Cleveland Indians fought back and won it.

Hell, last night's game was literally the best game I've ever seen period. Kyle Hendricks was pitching near his best, just given up one run. Maddon takes him out in thr 4th and beings in Jon Lester, who had a rocky start but calmed things down in the next few innings. Then Aroldis Chapman comes in and struggles after throwing in Game 5 in 2 2/3 innings and Game 6 too. The Indians were only down two and Rajai Davis comes up and hits a bomber out to tie the game.

After getting out of a bad inning, going into the ninth inning, no one scored runs and headed into extra innings. But just as the 10th inning was about to start, it was delayed due to rain for only 17 minutes. It was those 17 minutes that got the Cubs hit the reset button and got pumped up from Jason Hayward.

Cubs got 2 more runs thanks to Zorbist (the MVP of the series) and Montero. Coming into the bottom of the ninth, Carl Edwards Jr. was set to close it out and with getting two outs, the third was difficult for him to get but Madden brings out Montgomery to finish and finish as it a ground ball to Bryant throwing it to Rizzo for the game winning out.


So many emotions that was bottling up throughout this season was finally let out. And let me tell you, I haven't cried of happiness in a long, long time. Hugging my grandmother, who's been a Cubs fan and got me to be one too, in a family that's divided between Cubs and Cardinals (my grandfather).

We both hugged and cried as I said "they finally did it. We got to see them win it." After wiping the tears away we sang along with the fans that we could hear on television singing "Go Cubs Go."


Now the once lovable losers are now they're the champions of the world!! It still hasn't sunk in yet. But in time it will. The only thing that still comes to my mind is "They did it! They finally did it."
