So if you know me, you know I'm from Chicago and am a Chicago Cubs fan as I live and breathe. And what do I do in a year they decide to crush the NL Central Division and give themselves an amazing chance at a run for the pennant... I go out of country to Vet School where I have little time to watch the games and can't even see all the games. I have to watch it on Gameday at MLB.com! I can't even do the live TV thing they offer because, oh wait, the internet connection isn't good enough! WTF!? So here I am, one game into the post-season and I can't even celebrate in Chicago. I'm on a rock in the middle of the caribbean.
Alright, alright... it's not all that bad. There a whole lot of Cubs fans down here. Two of the major male fans aren't even from Chicago area. One is Iowa and the other is Florida. Iowa just had nothing else near him and so Cubbies was the adoptive choice. Florida's family was from Chicago and that's where he got his love. He hasn't even been to Wrigley! So yeah, I got some other fans and we got a sweet place to watch which is the Marriott Resort where they have multiple flat screens to show the games and it's actually in the casino so if I'm feeling lucky, I can go win some money to pay for beers... granted I lost $10 when I tried to pay for the pitchers of beer. Oh well. So that's what I got, ups and downs due to the timing of Vet School, but I do love the classes and being on the island and just getting my future rolling. Okay, game starts in 40 min so I gotta go steal a tv in the dorms.

don't worry, you are lucky you couldn't see all of the games.....i turned every single one of them off after the 3rd inning....we were pathetic.
