 * Delete. No evidence of mainstream usage; only one article about a single quote from the Cubs' manager. — C.Fred (talk) 17:25, 14 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. No sources, doesn't make much sense when skim reading, can't see why this should be kept any longer.  A Pro di gy   Sign Here/Contact 18:07, 14 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Do not delete this article - it's a new saying. It has already caught on with fans (of which there are millions of Cubs fans around the globe), even though it's a new saying. It will continue to become a used reference, and eventually will be part of pop culture. Just because I was the first to note in it Wiki is not a reason it should be deleted. - 9 if by Darkness
 * You say it's a new saying. You say eventually it will be part of pop culture. Those are reasons why now is not the right time for an article on this in Wikipedia. But if you can find a reliable source to back up your claim that it is already widespread with Cubs fans, the article may be kept. You might want to look into WP:SCRABBLE. --  Blanchardb - Me•MyEars•MyMouth - timed 00:53, 16 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete 7 gnews hits + 48 non-wiki ghits add up to not widely used. (And this from a rabid Cubs fan). If it has legs beyond this season and becomes notable, recreate then. -- Fabrictramp |  talk to me  23:27, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete per Blanchard above. Not notable enough yet, and if the article stays, it needs some clean up. User:MrMarkTaylor What's that?/What I Do/Feed My Box 23:40, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
