I decided to not put "Defending WS Champion" in the title because it is now time to get to work on winning this deal in 2017. I am so freaking jacked up for tomorrow night.

Love ya Dex, but hope you go 0-4 with a couple strikes out bud. GO CUBS GO!!

Have the local channels posted their schedule for the year of what they'll be carrying yet?

I was wondering how long it would take for this thread to get started. I just about did it a few hours ago but thought maybe wait till Sunday for it.

I am so jacked up to see this team play! The odds of repeating are not historically good but this team is so young and deep that if there is a hole in the roster in July they have the prospects to pull off a trade like they did with Chapman last year.

Well I can already sense a Cardinals opening Series sweep and all the happiness I felt from last season going straight out the window. ;)

Just ordered the World Series DVD set as well as the World Series movie they have been showing on FS1. Will never get tired of watching it.

Go Cubs Go. Should be another fun season!

I can't understate how emotional an event last year was for Cubs fans. It's a top 5 for me; up there with getting married and having kids.
