I don't care much for the Cardinals. They're too much like the Yankees of the NL. Not as bad, but nothing's as bad as the Yankees.

It already showed the cubs will win the series in 5 games in 2015. I will stick with that.

And I don't hate anyone I don't actually know in person.

But I loves me some Cubs! Went to Wrigley to see two games a few years back. Four of us walked out of The Drake with Dodger jerseys and hats... Chicago was very nice to us. I was actually kinda scared LOL but the people of Chicago were totally awesome!
