This is great
But I’m not as excited this year as I was last year. And for only one reason.
Because our goals are a lot higher this year.
Again, this is a wonderful accomplishment. But let’s not shoot our wad, so to speak, about winning the division.
The Cubs have three more titles to win before we really can let loose. Let’s do it.

Still technically need to clinch best record to ensure homefield...
…for the entire playoffs (except for the World Series, which was decided by Dan Uggla.)

but we have the best record in the NL.
Can anyone realistically catch us at this point?

Nice to win it ourselves at our ballpark and not to depend on anyone else. Let’s get our rotation in order now and play well in the postseason. The magic number now is +11.
