5. Go Guardians indeed.

I hold no ill will toward the Guardians. That was the best World Series of my lifetime. When they were down 5-0 in game seven, they didn't give up, they clawed their way back and made it an exciting game.

If the Cubs or Tigers (my second favorite team) don't make it, I hope the Guardians do.

Back in the day, tickets were very hard to get at Wrigley Field. The first day they went on sale, I would take the day off work and sit at the computer (dial-up! LOL!) from 11:00 a.m. until sometimes after midnight, getting frequently kicked offline and then watching every game I wanted get sold out. So my mother and I started going to other cities to see the Cubs. There were Cubs fans everywhere we went. The friendliest people and the warmest reception we ever got was in Cleveland!
