Cubs-fever have very much carried through the weekend, as celebration of the team's once-in-a-very-long-lifetime World Series victory goes on. The latest iteration of the team's glorious victory tour took place Saturday night on Saturday Night Live when Cubs players David Ross, Anthony Rizzo and a very charming Dexter Fowler joined Bill Murray at his old stomping grounds.
The teammates, dressed in snazzy Cubs sweaters and straw hats (like the ones that would have been popular in....1908, but who's counting?) pretended to be in a singing-competition-style sketch with several SNL cast members for a minute, before breaking out into a fully earnest rendition of "Go, Cubs, Go," which is of course the team's iconic and ear-bleeding victory song.
Some have tried and failed to make something more of the song, but I personally think none have done it better yet. Watch, because it probably couldn't hurt to hear it one more time, because Dexter Fowler has a beautiful smile, and because David Ross and Colin Jost bump groins.
