As a Cubs fan, I have to tip my hat to the Indians who played some of the best baseball I've ever seen. So glad to see my boys in blue finally win it, but i also don't wanna see the Indians go on being forgotten. Both teams deserved this trophy
After 108 years the journey to a world series championship is finally over for all cubs fans they all can party like its 1908 again and to my late grandma and grandpa in heaven they can finally say there beloved cubs are world series champions as a life long cardinals fan im happy for the city of Chicago and there fans they are bringing a championship back to a city that has waited for 101 years
Watching chapman jump up and down really made it that much better. You know he was devastated about the 8th and for his team to pick him up when he's done so much for us was a great moment.
Sam Brentwood I agree. They played him to the ground. I don't know what other people think, but we wouldn't be here without him. I don't blame him for the tie game; it made it a great game lol I'm so happy!!!
From a Cubs Fan - Thanks Cleveland Indians for the best competition and series! If you love baseball, you enjoyed this series and we're proud to have been apart of it !!!!!! GO CUBS !
Yankee fan, but very pleased to see the second city win after 108 years. Enjoy Cubs, well deserved. Saludos al Boricua Baez, tremendo trabajo. Congratulaciones a tu increible grupo de trabajo. PEACE!
As someone who's been a Cubs fan since before I understood what the Cubs or baseball were, this has been an unreal day. I remember how Harry Caray told us at the end of the 1991 season that someday the Cubs would go to the World Series and win. They fulfilled that promise last night. I wish Harry, Ernie Banks, and Ron Santo were still alive to see this. Hats off to Cleveland, they fought to the end, they have nothing to be ashamed of. Heck, if they'd been up against any team BUT the Cubs, I would've been cheering for them.
AND? i know people do not like to do math, think of the odds if you had a computer simulate the outcome of a 3-1 series but did the simulation 10 thousand times for both occurrences each team being down 3-1 they both might come back 5% of the time out of 10,000 simulations. im saying 5% for both teams combined. in reality even 5% is high for a computer model and these teams coming back has less to do with math and more to do with VEGAS money lines and alot of very complicated dynamics leading to these events being pre determinded and scripted dont believe me if you can comprehend how sports can be rigged and scipted
As a lifelong Cubs fan, this is the moment we've been waiting for. After 108 long years, no more waiting. Next year finally arrived and it never felt so good. Our team fought hard all year long and earned every bit of this moment. Here and now, the Chicago Cubs are the best of the best. History has happened and we now live in a world where anything is possible. P.S. On a final note... RIP, the Billy Goat, you were a noble foe. 1945-2016 For Ron, Ernie, Harry and all the other members of the Cubs Nation. We finally did it, guys. #FlyTheW
From a Royals fan to Cubs organization. You deserve it. Routed for you the whole way. Zobrist is one of the best players the royals had and I'm glad to see him in another team that has the same heart and determination that the royals have.
just speaking about this with a friend last night, i'm a Red Sox fan. it was awesome to see my Red Sox break their 84 year drought in 04 & then see the White Sox break their 88 year drought the next year. it sucks to see how their run has been largely forgotten about, but it really shows how Chicago is a Cubs town. such a beautiful thing to see joy after a century of despair!
86 years, not 84 years. Before 2004, the last time the Red Sox won was in 1918. Oh and I'm a Red Sox fan as well. Sincerely, Sox fan from Beverly, Massachusetts
Congratulations to the Cubs. Theo Epstein and Joe Maddon show tremendous class with the sportsmanship towards the Indians organization. Two teams squaring off, giving their all - it came down to game 7 extra innings and of course Chicago Cubs got the trophy bringing it home for the National League. I think it's time for the home field advantage at the all star game to end. I am a St. Louis Cardinals fan and have to say hats off to the Cubs and I am looking forward to the ongoing battles of Cubs Cardinals next year and every year.
I’m a Cubbie fan and have been one for many, many years. What I find really great is, even tho the person writing in is a fan of another team, they are really great in saying how great the Cubs did in the series. Congrats to the Cubs. Go Cubs Go!!!! 😃😃😃
Coming from being a blue jays fan, I'm more than incredibly happy that the cubs won. 108 years is really something, heck one of the greatest games in baseball history, if not THE greatest. WAY TO GO CUBS‼️ you really deserved it 😄⚾️💙❤️
America truly has great moments of time. Because of tenacity,grit and good ole fashion fun! This is one for Infamy. Magic number 108,... World Series Champions Chicago Cubs...
Lets remember the generations of Cubs fans who lived & died without getting a chance to witness a WS victory. Last Cubs WS win came right after the first Model T rolled off the assembly line.
Arrieta said it early in the season. "I don't care about winning a Cy young I care about winning a title for the Cubs" thanks Jake and the rest of this brilliant team. Time for a Dynasty
THE ABSOLUTE BEST 7TH GAME WORLD SERIES IN HISTORY. .. NEVER AGAIN IN OUR LIFETIMES, WHOEVER IS READING THIS. WILL NOT SEE ANYTHING THAT WILL EVER TOP THAT GAME. BE PROUD, I AM. THE 2016 CUBS WILL GO DOWN IN SPORTS HISTORY. CONGRATULATION TO ALL INVOLVED IN THE CUBBIES 2016 VICTORY. HAVE A DRINK ON ME!!! RIP HARRY CAREY!! I GOT TO SHAKE YOUR HAND WHEN I WAS YOUNG. I WILL CHOKE DOWN A BUDWEISER IN YOUR HONOR!!!! I AM SO PROUD TO BE A CHICAGO CUBS FAN FROM BEFORE I COULD EVEN WALK. THIS BUD'S FOR YOU!!
Any true baseball fan knows this is just a momentous time for everyone Cubs fans or not. Born and raised in the suburbs of Chicago but it was a postseason all should cherish. My first memory of Wrigley field is being in the bleachers when Greg Maddux hit a HR to straight-away center field.
Let me start by saying as a Toronto Blue Jays Fan Congratulations to the Chicago CUBS ..... And especially Congratulations to the inner-child baseball fans that are part of the "silent" generation era . I'm almost certain that if your parents and Grandparents were still alive today that they would be celebrating this victory :)
Rickkets does deserve credit, when he bought the cubs he changed them for the better and was willing to start shelling out money to get some talent both young and veteran into the system
Michael Elmlinger honestly, its more of a media issue and national issue with this dude. Yes, there are some fans who don't like him. But I would say about 90% of Cubs fans have no ill will towards him or blame him. He wasn't the only one reaching for the ball, he's just the unlucky one who caught it. And because we lost, we needed a scapegoat and unfortunately he was it lol
Toronto Fan here, when the Cubs won something in the universe felt right. No team that has such passionate and devoted fans should have to go so long without a championship. Great win!!! so happy for you guys
As a Padres fan I definitely feel and I felt all that pain and that joy I felt that pain and defeat the Cubs I felt that pain when they got swept by the Mets in the 2015 NLCS and I felt that joy when they won the World Series and what I felt is the meaning of being a true fan but in my case a Padres fan.
As a Cubs fan, I have to tip my hat to the Indians who played some of the best baseball I've ever seen. So glad to see my boys in blue finally win it, but i also don't wanna see the Indians go on being forgotten. Both teams deserved this trophy
It was a great World series.
Justin Sane that's a very positive attitude
Justin Sane ..great comment..I'm from Detroit and we were with you all the way..congrats Cubs
respect
Justin Sane me from Texas and I tip my hat to u Cubs and fans
After 108 years the journey to a world series championship is finally over for all cubs fans they all can party like its 1908 again and to my late grandma and grandpa in heaven they can finally say there beloved cubs are world series champions as a life long cardinals fan im happy for the city of Chicago and there fans they are bringing a championship back to a city that has waited for 101 years

From a Tigers Fan GOOD JOB! You deserve it Cubs!

Congrats Cubs fans from a Royals fan. Game seven was incredible and a terrific Series overall. What a ride for Ben Zobrist the last two years.
congrats cubs. yall deserved it, coming from a red Sox fan.
ur evil
YoungSleepy Theo Epstein broke two curses for Red Sox and Chicago Cubs Nation
If he can do that then he can make the Browns a winning team!
Theo Epstein is a curse breaker
Watching chapman jump up and down really made it that much better. You know he was devastated about the 8th and for his team to pick him up when he's done so much for us was a great moment.

Sam Brentwood I agree. They played him to the ground. I don't know what other people think, but we wouldn't be here without him. I don't blame him for the tie game; it made it a great game lol I'm so happy!!!
Congrats! KC Royals fan here, happy to pass the crown on to the Cubbies!
From a Baltimore Orioles Fan, Congratulations to the Chicago Cubs
Unforgettable moment, unforgettable feeling. Utterly surreal. It hasn't fully sunk in yet.
it'll take possibly years, but enjoy, reality is somewhat fun now!
Meh-Tyu I'm a Sox fan and I'm STILL crying. Sweet Home Chcago.
Meh-Tyu it's going to take awhile for it to sink in ,even I'm still in shock coming from a Baltimore Orioles fan.
From a Cubs Fan - Thanks Cleveland Indians for the best competition and series! If you love baseball, you enjoyed this series and we're proud to have been apart of it !!!!!! GO CUBS !
108 years of frustration: GONE!!!!!
Yankee fan, but very pleased to see the second city win after 108 years. Enjoy Cubs, well deserved. Saludos al Boricua Baez, tremendo trabajo. Congratulaciones a tu increible grupo de trabajo. PEACE!
yea way to go Cubs! Washington Nationals fan here.
Kennedy Kiser congrats on winning the World Series in 2020 from a cubs fan😁

al. jarreau
The Cleveland Indians and the Golden State Warriors have both blew a 3-1 lead in a world championship, both in game 7 at home. #AllIn2016
And......
I'm sure you have a correlation somewhere here to add, but assuming that, as Ying Li said, and...?
AND? i know people do not like to do math, think of the odds if you had a computer simulate the outcome of a 3-1 series but did the simulation 10 thousand times for both occurrences each team being down 3-1 they both might come back 5% of the time out of 10,000 simulations. im saying 5% for both teams combined. in reality even 5% is high for a computer model and these teams coming back has less to do with math and more to do with VEGAS money lines and alot of very complicated dynamics leading to these events being pre determinded and scripted dont believe me if you can comprehend how sports can be rigged and scipted
***** You mean Da Bulls don't you?

Congrats from Red Sox nation. We know what it feels like to break a curse

Nice. From the West to the South Shore.
From a Royals fan to Cubs organization. You deserve it. Routed for you the whole way. Zobrist is one of the best players the royals had and I'm glad to see him in another team that has the same heart and determination that the royals have.
congrats Cubs from a blue Jay's fan
I've been a South Sider(white sox) for a long time, but this is the best moment I've ever seen. I'm a firm supporter of the North Siders (cubs)!
just speaking about this with a friend last night, i'm a Red Sox fan. it was awesome to see my Red Sox break their 84 year drought in 04 & then see the White Sox break their 88 year drought the next year. it sucks to see how their run has been largely forgotten about, but it really shows how Chicago is a Cubs town. such a beautiful thing to see joy after a century of despair!
Tunisia Tucker so ur a bandwagon fan
86 years, not 84 years. Before 2004, the last time the Red Sox won was in 1918.
Oh and I'm a Red Sox fan as well.
Sincerely,
Sox fan from Beverly, Massachusetts
Stefan Mogielnicki got my math wrong, 2 years off lol. thank you though!
that's uncalled for.
That trophy certainly looks good in the hands of the Cubs!!
Congrats to the the Cubs and all Chicago well deserved from a die hard Metfan! congrats
Juan Morales I hate the Cards I am Met fan but the Cubbies are different on my book
Congratulations to the Cubs. Theo Epstein and Joe Maddon show tremendous class with the sportsmanship towards the Indians organization.

Congratulations Chicago Cubs from an Orioles fan!!
America truly has great moments of time. Because of tenacity,grit and good ole fashion fun! This is one for Infamy. Magic number 108,... World Series Champions Chicago Cubs...
It's funny how between NBA & MLB, Cleveland is now on the opposite side of a 3-1 comeback.
From a Mets fan: Great job Cubs! Enjoy your victory, you've earned it!!!
Lets remember the generations of Cubs fans who lived & died without getting a chance to witness a WS victory. Last Cubs WS win came right after the first Model T rolled off the assembly line.
Theo Espien, he brought a title back to both Boston and Chicago .... The dude us a god, he's an amazing GM
WAY TO GO CUBS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Congrats Cubs fans. Now, Give us back Theo- Red Sox fan here!

Bittersweet moment for a Rays fan to see their former Manager and Player (now MVP) win the World Series. Congrats to Joe and Ben on the win.
NihselAviation from an A's fan I feel your pain man
to be fair rays didnt have the players to overcome Joe Madman
gotta luv the way ZOBRIST is CLICKING HIS HEELS!!!! after the final out a la RONALDO SANTO.
he looks like an alternate universe Ted Cruz
Any true baseball fan knows this is just a momentous time for everyone Cubs fans or not. Born and raised in the suburbs of Chicago but it was a postseason all should cherish. My first memory of Wrigley field is being in the bleachers when Greg Maddux hit a HR to straight-away center field.

You guys will win one very very soon. As a cubs fan I can't wait to compete with you guys in the playoffs.
Michael Flavin maybe I can only hope
The greatest World Series game 7 ever played.
They should give the trophy to the players. So dumb seeing the rich dudes sitting and being spectators and acting like they deserve the credit.
Maybe but they're the bosses. That's how it works in any company.
Rickkets does deserve credit, when he bought the cubs he changed them for the better and was willing to start shelling out money to get some talent both young and veteran into the system
Korra The Cubs would have been nowhere without Theo, him and Madden are gods in Chicago now.
Flexyzz that's right
Ricketts rebuilt the entire organization into a winner. He absolutely deserves to hold it.
108 years amazing game from a Braves fan
Congrats Cubs from a Reds fan. Does this mean you forgive Steve Bartman
Michael Elmlinger very few Cubs fans still blame him. As a Cubs fan, I hope he was able to watch this and finally see his favorite team win it all
Michael Elmlinger honestly, its more of a media issue and national issue with this dude. Yes, there are some fans who don't like him. But I would say about 90% of Cubs fans have no ill will towards him or blame him. He wasn't the only one reaching for the ball, he's just the unlucky one who caught it. And because we lost, we needed a scapegoat and unfortunately he was it lol
Michael Elmlinger absolutely should! He didn't deserve what he got!
happy to see Cubs win one, Congrats Cubs fans.
No more "lovable losers" for the Cubs. They're now "wonderful winners".
God bless you, Ben Zobrist!
tears of joy go cubs go
Congrats to the Chicago Cubs.
With this win theo have cemented his legacy
I cried when they won
greatest day of my LIFE!!
it's sad how cubs blamed 108 years of loosing on a goat and a fan
Chicago Street TV We have the media thanks for pushing that!
we did it guys
THANKS AGAIN BOSTON FOR THEO.
I can’t wait for this to eventually be turned into a movie!!!
108 years: 108 stitches on a baseball.
Madeleine Hague 1 millionth person to say that
when the trophy falls and waited 108 years
i just think this is a dream!!! i cant believe i am so excited😍😍
GO CUBS GO
Toronto Fan here, when the Cubs won something in the universe felt right. No team that has such passionate and devoted fans should have to go so long without a championship. Great win!!! so happy for you guys

As a Padres fan I definitely feel and I felt all that pain and that joy I felt that pain and defeat the Cubs I felt that pain when they got swept by the Mets in the 2015 NLCS and I felt that joy when they won the World Series and what I felt is the meaning of being a true fan but in my case a Padres fan.
I'm a Sox fan and I'm getting goosebumps watching this. You deserved this Cubs.
