Step 1: Clinch a second straight division championship

Step 2: Advance to the National League Championship Series

Step 3: Advance to the World Series

Step 4: Win the World Series

It's time to cross off Step 1, Cubs fans, congratulations.

Go out tonight and crack open an Old Style (or if you have real taste buds, something more sensible) and enjoy it. It's been a long season and now its time to work out so we can be emotionally fit for the playoffs.
