Cubs Literally Demolish Dodgers' Bathroom
"The Cubs returned to Chicago on Sunday, still stinging after being swept by the Los Angeles Dodgers in the National League Division Series. Before leaving Dodger Stadium, one or more members of the Cubs took a bat to the plumbing near the visiting dugout, creating a flood.
It was the most damage done by Cubs bats all week."
I tried to think of a more snarky comment but, really, all I can say it -- suck it, Cubs. I love it.

There should be a “more futility than Cleveland” tag.

I like how people are publicly declaring their estrangement from the Cubs, renouncing the team and the players. And swearing at the team. They’ve had it? Move to Pittsburgh.

Weren’t there Pirate fans that renounced their team last year (they had some big walkout during a game)? Maybe they could swap fans.

With an average attendance of 21,582 per game last season, how could anyone tell?

I think you’re thinking about Baltimore. There was a walkout last year.

Scoop Jackson on espn.com:
The ugliest breakup in sports just happened. And that “It’s Gonna Happen” mantra has turned into an “It’s Never Gonna Happen” belief and a “We Don’t Give a $%&* If It Ever Happens” feeling. Obscene gestures, followed by obscenities. So many obscenities. “I can’t think of an obscene word that describes how obscene they played,” another ex-fan said, after dropping an f-bomb. Phone calls and e-mails poured in. One read: “Man, [expletive] the Cubs! Forever! I’m done with them! Sorry sons of [expletive]. Unless Mark Cuban buys them. That’s the only way. … I hope the [expletive] Cubs burn in hell!” Or, as lifelong-but-no-longer Cubs fan Andre Curry said, “They need players that can play in October, [expletive] April.”
Could this ever happen in Cleveland?

Being a Chicagoan, I’m saddened they lost. I absolutely loathe both teams here, to the extent that I can’t figure out which team is worse. But I’ll admit I wanted the Cubs to win it all, if only for the party/riots that would ensue… it could have started “the revolution.”
Or I just wanted to score w/ a couple of trixies (yes, at the same time).

The revolution would have happened. Therefore the NSA had their deathrays focused on the Cubs infield. The high-frequency radio waves in Wrigleyville were out of control. And you couldn’t even buy beer!

It’s a shame, I tell you…
Speaking of the rev, I had a meeting with the infamous Mr. Ayers not two weeks ago. But we talked about grad school, UIC and education… mostly.

I did a google image search for “Cubs in the bathroom” hoping to find something amusing….but I didn’t think the first image was appropriate for posting

Yeah, there wasn’t a bathroom to be seen in that pic.

What I imagined it would depict was FAR worse than what it turned out to be.

Incidentally, the first text link is to a person on Yahoo! Answers asking where they can find Cubs-related bathroom merchandise. Anyone here have any Tribe-related bathroom merchandise?

So weird — I’ve actually been online looking for tribe-related bathroom stuff all day. No joke. I don’t understand why it’s so hard to find some damn hand towels and such when you can literally get Chief Wahoo on everything else in the world, down to even chip-bag clips.

My sister gave me Tribe handtowels some years ago. They’re buried in a box in the garage I believe ……

See my ex had this all Steelers bathroom — it was great for inducing vomit after drinking too much early in the night.
But anyway, I like the idea and want to do the same only with the Tribe. (Un)fortunately, we don’t have anything that would easily make good bathroom accessories like those gawdawful terrible towels.

I just saw a Chief Wahoo golf towel. I’d assume they’re pretty much interchangeable with a regular hand towel.

WRONG!
I actually JUST bought two of them and didn’t realize they have hooks and/or grommets on them for attachments to golf bags.

Haha, no worries. I didn’t mean the capital letters to be a dick, I just thought it was hilarious because I literally just went through that.

Even better – hang some hooks on the wall and you don’t even need a towel bar.

This is like when old people drink coffee at the hardware store at 6:15 AM
Or, more accurately, what I imagine that to be like.

I prefer my lawnchair at the convenience store. They open earlier and have donuts. Damn kids these days.

You wanna see old people drinking coffee? Hang out at the McDonalds inside any mall when it opens. The hardware store was SO 1990s.

I saw one once, when I was in Iowa. We have Giant Eagle’s here and they also collect old people like moths to a bright light.
