I don't want to talk about it.

Who lost?  I don't even bother to check?

Something is really fishy. The Cubs going to the world series and the Reds were in dead last place. THAT'S UNAMERICAN!

Well, now I'm getting worried.  I've watched two of the three games.  The one I didn't watch, the Cubs won.  And I can't watch tonight's game because we're going out to see Fritz the Nite Owl (local late night movie host from *way* back) host live, for the first time, the Rocky Horror Picture Show.  If the Cubs win tonight, you're going to have to crowbar me away from the TV the next two nights, just to make sure my Tribe wins.  :)

If the Cubs don't win, I will expose the World Series as a fraud, and refuse to accept the results.

Oddly enough, I did get to see some of the game last night before the movie started, while enjoying a beer in the pub.  And the Indians won.  Well.  I know that correlation is not causation, but I am definitely watching tonight.  :D

Was it the beer, pub or you drinking the beer that caused it? They probably would have lost if you hadn't been staring at the waitress's ass the whole time..

I don't want to be cruel to Cubs fans, but the Curse is part of baseball history and I don't want it to end.  Go Cleveland!

So I woke up and turned to Google's equivalent of a sports page, and the only article on the game was called, The Moment the World Series Got Interesting.  So I guess the Cubs must have won.  I scanned the article much too quickly to know if they did or what the score might have been.  Mostly, it was a long scrolling piece about how interesting baseball is with references to past baseball achievements and exciting moments.  But all I wanted was the fucking score.  And I'm still not sure if the Cubs actually won, or if they even demonstrated they deserve to win the series.

That is one thing I can be essentially guaranteed of *not* staring at.

Now, had there been a waiter's ass, that might have been another matter entirely...

I'm perfectly happy to see the Cubs break their curse.

Just not at the expense of Cleveland.  Let 'em humiliate the Yankees, they deserve it more.

Okay, I'm keeping an eye out for that asteroid now.
