It would be fun to see a poll of which individual Cubs transaction this off-season it took to turn individual members of the Ligueminati from the narrative of "Cubs suck / not that good" to "Too many good players to play / doesn't matter if great - too much pressure".

Here's a few guesses
America - Jason Heyward* (Note only based on race)
Frank - Munenori Kawasaki (thought it was Bryce Harper)
Keyser Soze - Edgar Olmos (based on exclusive scouting)

Yeah, 108 years was no big deal. The 109th is gonna be the one that we that makes this all difficult.


Most of us here have the scars from 08, 04, 03, 84, even 69 (dolphin was in law school at the time)

You simply cant do anything else to us. We are like a loner cop with 2 weeks to live...We have nothing to lose, baby!


I didn't have to go to law school in my day, just apprentice under an attorney for a few years.

Just a freight train romping through MLB.

Cubs run differential of 89 is higher than 2nd (STL) and 3rd (WSH) combined who have 40 and 39.

Unbelievable how unstoppable this team is. No weaknesses anywhere.

Better. A separate team of back-ups and youngsters salting away in AAA from this '16 team probably wins the AL West.

Pitching staff wouldn't be a strength but the position players would be SOLID

No it doesn't.

I hated that team. By August they were the most I've ever hated a Cubs team.

Buncha..... PUSSIES!

I will admit that is the greatest portmanteau in board history. Cheers to THE INQUISITOR.

No, it sounds like the expectations of that team. KWood is talking results.
