Astros World Champions
Congratulations to the Houston Astros on winning their first World Series. Now c'mon Rockets, win the NBA playoffs. It'd be nice to think the Texans could add the Superbowl as well.

Chicago Cubs
I'm hoping that by the time anyone reads this the Cubs will have won the World Series.
World Champion Chicago Cubs has a certain ring to it.

Chicago Cubs
The Cubs have made the World Series for the first time in 71 years, let's hope they win this time. I've only been a fan for about the last 10 years (I am a long-time fan of the Yokohama DeNA Baystars in Japan's Central League), but I'm enjoying the ride.
