  7. I went to bed during Game 2 unsure if the Cubs were even gonna hold a lead through a full inning, so this has been a real treat to watch.

    Would be the icing on the cake if the Cubs could get the job done Saturday and add to Milwaukee’s doomed postseason history.

  10. WE WILL NOT GO QUIETLY INTO THE NIGHT

    WE WILL NOT GO DOWN WITHOUT A FIGHT

    THIS WEEKEND

    WE WIN

    THE DIVISIONAL SERIES

  32. Great job by Boyd- a redemption start. The bullpen too. Happster setting the tone with that bomb. WINNER TAKE ALL Sat!

  35. I’m speechless, but I’m happy.

    I look forward to winning the NLDS and facing the Dodgers.

  36. I let my 8th grade sons stay up to watch the game. My mom found out and messaged me that I was setting a bad example. I told her the only thing I questioned is which one of my sons sent a text to grandma at 11pm? That’s the only questionable thing in my mind.

  37. For the last number of years I’ve felt like the Cubs have cracked under pressure.

    In the past 7 days Cubs have faced 3 do or die games and come out on top.

    Special team, get the job done on Saturday.

  39. I know they’re going back home with a chance to win the series on Saturday, but you’ve gotta feel pretty gutted after a night like that in Wrigley. Feels like the Cubs just stole all mental in the series with a dominant game.

    Play. The. Damn. Song.

  41. This has turned into a pretty good series!

    Brewers will have the home field advantage, but they’re little bitches.

  42. Regardless what happens Saturday, im so fucking proud of this team. They’ve shown fight and grit all season. Been a great year.

  43. No matter what happens, I am proud of my Cubbies man. They got their ass kicked in Milwaukee, and they showed a lot of heart, and they came back, and now they’ve put all the pressure on Milwaukee.

    It’s very possible the Brewers win on Saturday. But I will still be proud of how the Cubs came back, and all Cub fans should be proud of them, too.

    Now lets kick their ass on Saturday!!!
