    The Cubs are now World Champions. Now I wonder it will take 108 years to win their next World Series? Next streak to end is the Cleveland Indians, who have last won in 1948. Truthly for the world to be right, the Rams need to win Super Bowls, and the Phillies need to win World Series. Just saying. That would make the world align right. At least in my world.

    It is the apocalypse.

    The upside to being a Rams fan is heartbreak.

    Sprinkles are for winners.

    that was a great game 7….

    World Series MVP…. you just never know…

    Zobrist was born and raised in Eureka, Illinois, by his parents Cynthia “Cindi” (née Cali) and Tom Zobrist, senior pastor of Liberty Bible Church in Eureka, Illinois He loved playing baseball since he was eight, so much so that he and his friends built their own wiffle ball field behind his house. After no pro scouts or college recruiters looked at him when he graduated, he thought baseball was over for him. “Baseball was not even a thought in my mind”, Zobrist said, “When I was done with my last high school game, I was driving around town just thinking I’m done with baseball the rest of my life.” After graduating from Eureka High School in 2001, Zobrist planned to attend Calvary Bible College in Kansas City, Missouri, but Zobrist’s high school coach encouraged him to spend $50 to participate in an annual summer event that showcased seniors in Peoria, Illinois He played in the showcase, and was given an offer by Olivet Nazarene University, which he accepted. In his time at Olivet, he pitched and also played at shortstop and second. He transferred to Dallas Baptist University for his senior year, where he played shortstop.

    Ok, this is my annual “why MLB Baseball is a Crock” post. I have no idea which teams made the playoffs this year. But if its like almost all other years, MOST of the teams that made the playoffs will be in the TOP half of the payrolls. Often in the top third.

    So someone list the playoff teams and lets see how it turned out this year.

    The Cleveland Indians made it to the World Series. They lost in 7. LeBron struggled at the plate all series long for them. 💪✌
