11. If the Cubs don't win
that'll be a shame. They have two of the hottest pitchers going back-to-back. The goat should be excluded from the equation. One of these pitchers should be able to toss a good game.
...O...

14. Dude, if they lose, I'm coming after your arse!
No preliminary celebrations! We've been here before. Remember 1984. Ask our Boston counterparts, if that's not enough.

15. This is why the Curse is powerful
because of premature celebration, I seen clips of Red Sox fans cheering whipping out the champagne but the Red Sox still had to get one more out.

25. NOW YOU KNOW WHY WE FIRED DUSTY
If ever a manager can choke its that guy. He takes his pitchers out at the exact wrong time. Doesn't this look just like game 6 of last years series?
