1. “Chicago Cubs Win the World Series”

2. The Chicago Cubs, ending a championship drought that has lasted 108 years, beat the Cleveland Indians 8-7 in Game 7 of the 2016 World Series at Progressive Field in Cleveland. They did it the hard way, too, coming back from a 3-1 game deficit, winning three straight games, including the last two on the road in Cleveland. And it took ten innings to win it all in Game 7. The Cubs are the first team since the 1985 Kansas City Royals to claw back from a 3-1 deficit in the World Series. The game had no shortage of stomach-tightening moments for both teams and their fans. The Cubs had won 103 games throughout the regular season. The last time the Chicago Cubs won the World Series was 1908 back when Theodore Roosevelt was president. This was the 60th extra-inning game in World Series history, and it was the fifth time that happened in a decisive game. With the Cubs' win early Thursday morning, the Indians now have the current longest dry spell between championships, last winning in 1948.

Experts say parliament is unlikely to block Brexit outright. But the ruling could mean Brexit is delayed, and lawmakers may get a chance to influence what kind of deal the government negotiates with the EU.
