Hey Folks I am from Chicago. Grew up there. My Mom watched on WGN and listened to Harry Caray and Jack Brickhouse call the games til her death in 1992. She always was rooting for the Cubbies.She never saw the Cubs win. She is smiling in Heaven now. Grew up playing tennis against a wall. Took a longtime to have any success in tennis. Always watched the Cubs on WGN tv Channel 9. They finally Won it! Wow. It was Close. Cleveland gave a good show. Cleveland was the longest team in any sport to go without a championship with the exception of one team. The Cubs. Took a long time to lift the curse of the Cubs. Mr. Epstein did it for Boston and now the Cubbies. 1908 is over one hundred years ago. 108 years to be exact. Guess what, There are a108 stitches on a baseball. There is something spiritual about sports. There is something spiritual about this Championship. We Americans can take a hint from this. We can overcome adversity, odds against us, bad luck, and just problems. The Cubs won. The odds in Vegas I think if you had bet on them to win the World Series was over 1000 to 1. Crazy huh? Probably the same for Cleveland. Just wanted to say Go Cubs! Go America! Go Americans! This ought to give us hope for everyone that we can succeed in and on this planet even though the odds are against us. God Bless us......Coach Sherwin Anderson
