Welp, that's the series since Kershaw is probably pitching Game 5 and Game 7.

...that doesn't involve homeless people.

It's better to lose a game here and there than to sweep through and have to wait out the beginning of the next series. Give them this one and take the next three.

When your team is like 10-150 in the playoffs batting yeah its over.

trying to be a gigantic whiner about a 1-1 series where the cubs would still be favourites to win is not endearing, not interesting, not original and definitely not funny.

Boy, I think it's about time I tell you the difference between a man and a woman. A woman isn't a woman unless she's pretty. And a man isn't a man unless he's ugly.

It would never ever happen but I'd like to see a 2-2-2-1 where the lower seed gets game seven at home they earned it and it forces the favorite to win a road game. This would never happen though.

it's hard to be upset at kershaw owning the cubs, he's a pitching death machine and a cool dude. Let's hope it doesn't come down to a game 7 against him

He will end us in game 5, why do you think this is going 7? Is Rizzo, Russell or Heyward going to eat some magic oatmeal?

It took the greatest pitcher of a generation to beat the Cubs 1-0, so I'm still feeling pretty good about our chances.
