Thank you so much for your post and the great quote from the amazing James Earl Jones.

I remember when my mother and I went to see the.Cubs play the Indians in Cleveland in 2015 and how friendly everyone at the stadium was. We were clad in Cubs gear from head-to-toe and the workers smiled at us and said "Welcome to Cleveland!" We'd been to several Cubs games in different cities and that had never happened before.

I remember driving to Chicago in 2016 for a Cubs game and listening to the Indians game on the radio (instead of the Cubs!) when they were having that unbelievable 23-game winning streak.

I remember how hard the Indians fought back in the 7th game of the 2016 World Series (to my mind, that was the best World Series EVER) and when it was over, I began to hope that they would win the next World Series (just not against the Cubs!). I still hope they win the World Series one of these years (just not against the Cubs!).

Here's to the 2026 baseball season! I can't wait for it to begin. GO CUBS! GO TIGERS! GO GUARDIANS! GO PHILLIES!
