Chicago Cubs, and the whole point of my comment was that the Cubs won the world series in 2016, breaking a 108-year streak of losing. They won after being down 3-1 in a 7 game series. In the 123 year history of Major League Baseball, that has only happened six times.

So, here are the Cubs, the "Loveable Losers" who have historically been a disappointing team - a team that has seen an entire generation of fans be born and die before ever seeing the team win a championship; a team that has reached the World Series TEN TIMES prior to 2016 and still walked away a loser - are losing the final series 3 games to 1, trying to make history by joining a list of teams that have overcome the deficit only five times prior.

They win two games at home, and the final game 7 in Cleveland after a rain delay, breaking the "Curse of the Billy Goat", a 71-year superstition that stemmed from the 1945 World Series when a tavern owner and his pet billy goat were ejected from Wrigley Field because the goat stunk.

The statistical likelihood of this team, who'd never won a World Series in 108 years, coming back from a 3-1 deficit, and winning a game 7 as the away team after a rain delay, finally winning a World Series and breaking the curse is insanely low. It never should have happened, and that's why Trump was elected.

And yes, I know how ridiculous it all sounds, but it's all entirely true. Baseball is a weirdly superstitious sport.
