Clearly not used to the @Cubs playing this late in the year; we scheduled two parent/teacher conferences tonight. #GoCubsGo #FanInAbsentia

Why have teams like the @Indians not faced nearly the vitriol and controversy that the @Redskins have? Shouldn't they all?

This is the worst the Cubs have played in the World Series in 71 years.

They're down 3-0 in Game 1, but I'll give the @Cubs credit: they've looked better so far tonight than they did in games 2 or 3 of the NLCS.

So, you're saying regression toward the mean suggests the Game 1 loser is due for a Series win? Got it. #optimism twitter.com/jaysonst/statu...

And now a tweet that could throw Cubs nation into instant depression: The winner of Game 1 has won the last 6 World Series - & 24 of 28!
