Well, there’s a headline I never thought I’d read, much less write.

But last night – Nov. 2nd, 2016 – the Chicago Cubs vanquished the Cleveland Indians and the curse of the goat with an extra-innings 8-7 victory.

And they did it in the least Cubs way possible – winning in extra innings (they always seem to lose in extra innings), and after being down three games to one in the series. Impressive come-from-behind win for anyone, extraordinary for the Cubs.

Yes, the World Champion Chicago Cubs. Last time that was written (not by me, of course) was 108 years ago, in 1908. Wow.

In other news: The weather in Hell will be below 32°; random reports of flying pigs have been filed in the Chicago area.
