I’d love to back you up on this one, Tom…. but I’ve been a Cubs fan since I was seven. Let’s see, that’d make it an even 45yrs. I’ve seen this hot streak a few times in the past, and I’ve seen it collapse far too often.
I’ll get excited when they’re going for their 4th win in the World Series, there’s 2 out in the 9th for the other team, a 3-2 count on the batter…. the next pitch is a slider painting the outside corner, and it freezes the batter who was expecting an inside fastball. Oh, and did I forget to mention that the Cubs are up by 15 runs?

Do I want them to win? Of course. Do I expect them to win?
