Anyone buying convention tickets today? Anyone ever gone before? Is it tough to get autographs? Long lines? Thinking about taking my 8 year old."Going where the water tastes like wine!"0

That's what I really love more than anything about this team! With the exception of a few (Lackey, Chapman, La Stella) they all seem to have a good degree of humility. Honestly, I believe that was the key component to them winning it all. Of course Maddon is the ring leader, but a lot of that can be reflected upon Rizzo and Bryant - the obvious leaders of this team. And contribute a lot of their leadership to having David Ross in the clubhouse. Those two look up to him so much and have matured well beyond their years these last two seasons! You can have the best players in the game, but if you don't have the attitude, you'll rarely come away champions.Wma31394 said:Congrats to Bryant!! Rookie of the year followed up with mvp and a championship. More importantly he appears to be a humble class act which is hard to find these days with superstars.

Just bought some Chicago Cubs World Series Champions Brut champagne. Does champagne age, or go bad?
Chicago Cubs will now have the most expensive tickets in baseball. Rizzo should have gave that ball to someone else. The worst of times..they don't phase me,
even if I look and act really crazy.0 -
Sparkling wine (aka Champagne) will indeed go bad.
You can typically age a non-vintage sparkling wine (what we call Champagne) for 2-3 years, as long as it is properly refrigerated or cellared. But aging it is often frowned upon as sparkling wine & Champagne are sold ready to drink, and keeping them cellared will result in loss of carbonation.Malroth said:Just bought some Chicago Cubs World Series Champions Brut champagne.

Once opened, you can keep refrigerated for another 2-3 days as long as you re-seal the bottle. Use a wine vacuum or champagne stopper.

Drink it! Celebrate the new year with a piece of something good from this year. It's meant to be enjoyed. The bottle ends up looking the same on the shelf empty as it does full in the end.Star Lake 00 / Pittsburgh 03 / State College 03 / Bristow 03 / Cleveland 06 / Camden II 06 / DC 08 / Pittsburgh 13 / Baltimore 13 / Charlottesville 13 / Cincinnati 14 / St. Paul 14 / Hampton 16 / Wrigley I 16 / Wrigley II 16 / Baltimore 20 / Camden 22 / Baltimore 24 / Raleigh I 25 / Raleigh II 25 / Pittsburgh I 250

Yeah, agreed, well he and those dudes (Zobrist?) who drove in the runs in extras after Chapman gave up the bomb.elvistheking44 said:
