And I shall become a living legend!
Welcome to the 2015 National League Wild Card game! Where the second and third best teams in the league, having both endured decades of heartache, fight it out in a one game steel cage death match. Only one will get to play another game this year! Who will break the hearts of a city and win passage to the NLDS?

Where they most likely will get knocked out by the St. Louis Cardinals. There is no God.

Your Contestants:

Chicago Cubs
The avatars of sports misery. The entirety of the Cold War played out since the last time they even appeared in a World Series. Now they have one of the best managers, one of the best pitchers, and a few of the best rookies in baseball. Let's see how they screw it up.

Pittsburgh Pirates
This is their third straight season hosting the Wild Card game. Hope to score more runs than last year, while allowing fewer grand slams. Their terrible secret: every Pirates fan is actually two Steelers fan, standing on their shoulders beneath an oversized coat.

Anyone not rooting for the Cubs is Hitler.
