What a great time to Re-visit singer/song writer Steve Goodman. Steve Goodman was born in Chicago in 1948 and died in 1984 of Leukemia. Steve was a great Singer/Song writer, go to YouTube Check out videos Some of his great work, such as "A Dying Cubs Fan's Last Request". As Folk singer he wrote many great songs, which many singers stood in line to sing. If you are a Cubs Fan, you would know "Go CubsGo", which is played often at Wrigley Field. I wish the Village Daily Sun would cover Steve Goodman's Story during 2016 World Series".

I'm a Red Sox fan but since they are out of it, I was really hoping the Cubs would win. I know what it's like to wait 86 years to win a World Series.

Unfortunately, it doesn't look too good for the Cubs now.

They'd better start playing a lot better if they want to pull off an upset. They're a much better team then they've looked in these five games.

The pitching match ups look good but that doesn't seem to have made much difference. You're right about coming to life these last two games. The managers are too good to cost a game.

I favor the Cubs in game 6 with Jake Arrietta pitching although Tomlin pitched lights out in the last game he started.

Assuming they win, I wonder who the Cubs will start in game 7, (I hope iit's not Lackey), as Cleveland will definitely start Kluber. He has been amazing.

If the Cubs go with Lackey, the Indians have a decided advantage.

That's why we watch as we don't know who's going to win!!!

Good pitching always beats hitting. The Cubs offense needs to wake up

Go Cubs!!!

My Dad too. He went to bed in fear of them losing again after that 2 run homer by Rajai Davis. The game did run pretty late. Game 7 turning point: Cubs' two-run 10th inning - Chicago Tribune

Congrats to the Cubs and their long suffering fans.
