    Happy to see two teams you don't see often in the World Series this year.

    The Cubs will be heading to their first World Series in 71 years. They fell to the Dodgers in 1945 and have not won a World Series since 1908.

    The Indians have not been to a World Series since 1997 where they fell to the Florida Marlins. They have not won a World Series since 1948 where they beat the Boston Braves.

    Hoping to catch a few games this week, should be a good matchup. Rooting for the Cubs.

    If there is enough interest and enough people would want to participate, I would have no problem setting them up.

    Sox alumni series....

    Cleveland was en fuego for the ALDS/ALCS, might lose that momentum with the lay off.

    Hoping the Cubs win but kinda expecting the indians to pull it off actually. Indians in 6 is my prediction.

    If I'm being honest I'm watching Knicks/Cavs & Warriors/Spurs over this.

    That being said, I'll be very surprised if this series makes it back to Cleveland. Cubs in 5.

    I'd watch this over any regular season game, all day. Then again i'm a baseball guy so...

    Key to the series is Cubs scoring early. If they are down after 6 the game is essentially over. Sox have a better lineup then the Cubs and they were shut down pretty good and I would say Toronto has a slightly worse lineup then the Cubs, but they got shut down as well. If Carrasco and Salazar were healthy i would probably pick the Indians but i think the Cubs win in 6.

    it would be great to see Cubs win...generations have passed without watching them win 1...

    Clevland should bring a goat with them

    Cubs should allow Bartmen to show up and throw the first pitch lol

    If you're even just a sports guy I feel like you have to watch this.

    Cubs in 5, just because I'd like to see them win in Wrigley
