Lol as someone who's been raised to be a die hard Cubs
fan I'm totally enjoying seeing everyone wearing their Cubs gear now....
There are lots of people jumping on the Cubs bandwagon now. As a die hard Cubs fan, you're OK with that? If so, I'm impressed. There are a fair amount of Cubs fans across the border here in Wisconsin. I'm not a Cubs (or Brewers) fan. I admit the bandwagon mentality irks me because 2 months ago those who are now all of a sudden cheering on the Cubs, couldn't tell you whether they won or lost the night before. Now I have co-workers talking about the Cubs, & I just shake my head.
You've got to live & breathe with them during the losses (& bad seasons) if you want to enjoy the wins.

Cubs had a terrific year, and this will not be last time we see this matchup in October.
They need more pitching, even if it cost them a hitter or two who matters. But they have some real talent, and were simply overwhelmed by stupendous NYM pitching. 35th inning before Cubs got >1 run in an inning.
I'm a die-hard Cubs fan. I don't follow baseball that closely anymore, but I've been very intrigued by the Cubs this year. They had a great season, so nothing to be ashamed of, being swept by the Mets. Next year, come back stronger, even better prepared.
Back To The Future's prophecy powers are apparently weaker than Cub Curse powers.
Well if you go on the Cubs' season ending in a sweep on 10/21/2015, then Back to the Future II got it right. Million-to-one odds anyway. Or go on the "alternate 2015 timeline" theory.

It's baseball, dude. There are 162 games. Even die-hard fans forget when their team plays during April-August.
"True" Cubs fans should just consider themselves lucky that they are finally good enough to have a bandwagon. Of course, being Cubs fans, they have to complain.

I have been getting annoyed by the BTTF/Cubs nonsense people have been spouting.
The USA Today in the film said "Cubs Sweep Series in 5." That means the World Series, in the movie world, was a best-of-nine contest. We all knew it wasn't possible for the "prediction" to come true before the playoffs even started.
The newspaper also said the USA was preparing for Queen Diana's visit and we've known that could not happen since 1997.
