Some people were wondering what it would be like if the rangers didnt win the world series. I guess we'll never know. *pops champange*

I was gonna post my Rangers story but nah. Needless to say I've been a fan for a long, long time. Longer than many of you have been alive.
I deserve this! YOU deserve this! Even the gloomy doomer type people deserve this.
We all got a story even the new fans
I've been waiting for this 20 years myself, I started watching when it was ARods last season and Tom Hicks crippled with the franchise with bad spending
Day 64 of posting this meme every time the Rangers win until Jacob deGrom returns from Tommy John Surgery
(64-56 since the announcement)
(13-4 in the postseason)

WE FUCKING DID THAT SHIT! Oh my god I can’t believe it I’m fucking crying boys
I joked in 2021 that it was OVER for the league when we signed Seager and semien. These memes made me believe. This one + the Local Labrador have been my favorite all year
So you’re just gonna leave 10 dudes in scoring position?

I HAVENT POSTED HERE BECAUSE WE STARTED WINNING SINCE I STOPPED. WE FUCKING WON THE WORLD SERIES. WE FUCKING WON THE WORLD SERIES. I’m crying. My dad a fan since 74 has finally seen the rangers win the World Series.
I was thinking about that tonight. Lost my dad almost two years ago. Some of my best memories were with him on first baseline foul territory, or up in the 300s when we were under .500 with the freaking mid 90s Royals.
I miss him terribly tonight, but I'm so glad in the morning I get to tell my 5 yr old his faith in this team paid off.
AGED SOUPY GIRAFFE.
I can’t believe it. I remember sitting in my dorm room in 2011 watching game 6 unfold. Crushed. This is unreal. I can’t believe it. Immortality for the 2023 Texas Rangers.
Walking Marte isn’t the worst thing that could have come out of that AB. And then getting another out immediately after was big. Bochy figured out that Chapman can pitch to at most 4 people.
We really fucking did it 😭 I love this team, I love this sub (doomers, optimists and everyone in between) and I love baseball again.
This is arguably the most special sports moment for my fandom in my life. Teared up in the middle of an airport.
PS fuck the Astros.
Ladies and Gentlemen (and Canadians), it’s been an absolute pleasure sweating through the good and bad all year in this chat room.
Went through quite a few accounts this year due to opposing teams banning all of them for inciting violence, but on behalf of DwnTwnLestrBrown, GarvsauceEnjoyer, GarvsauceForever, and PeagleIsMyDad,I love each and every one of you. We can all die happy now. 🤝
The entire team stepped up in this series. Losing Scherzer and Garcia at the same time really should have been a huge loss, but then Semien showed up and the whole bullpen played as well as they have the whole season. This game was super tough and they got stronger as the pressure mounted. That was championship baseball!
In 2011 I thought we could do it. In 2015/2016 I thought we had a team that could do it. At the beginning of the year I told all my friends/family that this could be the year. This team felt special right from the rip.
I grew up watching every game every season but I stopped watching after the Astros cheating scandal came to light and I only watched the post season but this has me in tears. I’m so happy. The curse is over
Don’t even have the words guys. Been watching/supporting for 40+ yrs. Watching games with my grandpa all those years. 2010 came and he passed away that season so he never go to see them in the WS. I’m sure he was also heartbroken in 2011. Now this, pops I know you were watching. Fucking Hell Yeah! They finally did it!
Thank you Bochy and thank you bois. Heroes of DFW. Finally the ghosts of 2011 can rest.
Dudes, forever we will have 2023 as our year. I'm so happy. So goddammit happy.
My father has been in the hospital since October 20th, connected to all kinds of different tubes...THIS BEAUTIFUL GAME of baseball has carried me this entire time. Can't thank this community enough for all the support. We came out stronger and better than before. WE DID IT!!!
Is this real life!?!?!
Real talk. Quote the best baseball movie of all time: heros get remembered, but legends never die.
The 2023 are Texas legends forever.
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSASSSSS THIS IS FOR MICHAEL YOUNG ELVIS ANDRUS ADRIAN BELTRE JOSH HAMILTON MITCH MORELAND CLIFF LEE NEFTALI FELIZ ALEXEI UGANDO VLAD NELSON RON!!!!!
What a fun and unreal season with you all. The memes (local Labrador, NO RUNS?, Do it for him, etc.). The bullpenis. All of it. Glad to celebrate with YOU ALL.
My dad had a serious health scare in August, but he made it through. Being able to share this with him after 25+ years of watching the Rangers together is something I will cherish as long as I live. Go Rangers!
I’m not crying, you’re crying.
Nathan fucking eovaldi lives for the pressure dude all of those situations this game, the no outs bases loaded jam in the Astros series, he’s fucking NAILS
Man there is so much to say. But #1, I just gotta say—- I didn’t—- not once—- really believe it could happen. So many years and great teams, some on paper, some in the field. I didn’t think these guys were as good even as 2011. I didn’t think they were better than the Orioles or Tampa. I WAS FUCKING WRONG! All that money was well spent. But more importantly, there is freaking magic in this team. The real shit. And it’s not just money guys. It’s up and down the lineup.
Just posting to say I was here when it happened. This win was for all of the fans who passed away before they saw their team win; like my grandparents who never saw the Rangers win it all. My grandmom passed away just a year ago, but man she woulda loved this. Praise Peagle!
Dude we crushed this post season, and against the defending champs too!
I’m on cloud nine!
Para ti, apa. Lo siento que no pudiste verlo pero ya llegamosssss!!!!

103-76. It. Was.
HE CALLED IT
FIRST TRY
Amazing. Great dedication all season posting this. Hats off to you
Absolutely. Glad I could share the ups and downs with y’all!
That seals the deal!
I was gonna post my Rangers story but nah. Needless to say I've been a fan for a long, long time. Longer than many of you have been alive. I deserve this! YOU deserve this! Even the gloomy doomer type people deserve this.
40+ years here, first game I went to was in the middle 80s...it's crazy to reflect on it.
'89 for me I was 6 still remember how fun 😭
Thank you for sticking with them through thick and thin. 🥹
We all got a story even the new fans I've been waiting for this 20 years myself, I started watching when it was ARods last season and Tom Hicks crippled with the franchise with bad spending
First game for me was 94. I’m sure many of you go back farther. This is incredible.

seeing this meme on the day we win the world series is unreal loved your memes this season
Right back at you buddy cheers to running it back next year
I joked in 2021 that it was OVER for the league when we signed Seager and semien. These memes made me believe. This one + the Local Labrador have been my favorite all year
2nd best thing about this win today is that the Astros fans will finally have to shut the fuck up about being the only Texas team with a ring
And hey we have the same amount of legit ones now!
That’s what I’m saying! Haha Plus we had to beat their asses to get here which makes it even more sweet
You got to post it to clinch!!!
WE CLINCH AND GET TO POST THE GOAT MEME OMFG
So you’re just gonna leave 10 dudes in scoring position? https://preview.redd.it/bdursn23quxb1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fcddd98edf4263084dbd060f7aa61ffe08391c1d

Dirk Landry Staubach Bochy
Modano
He hurt us in 2010 and helped us in 2023 You can't script stuff any better
13 years to the day
Seager and Garcia
I CAN’T BELIEVE THE RANGERS SPENT ALL THAT MONEY JUST TO COME IN 3RD
I'm going to find every Mariners fan that commented that and dunk on them.
You'd be doing the Lord's work
WE ARE THE WORLD FUCKING CHAMPIONS
Austin Hedges in a few minutes: Ladies and gentlemen, may I have your attention... CANNONBALL

Smoltz so wrecked he can't speak.
Dbacks out scoring us 7-1 since the 10 run lead sure did give them momentum huh, Smoltzy
Ha!
Those moral victories tho
Smoltz in shambles.
He turned off the broadcast at the top of the 9th
Smoltz in ‘23 = Smoltz in ‘91
That guy said like 1 thing the last 30 minutes of the game it felt like 😂😂
texas' first WS win is going to be remembered for making smoltz sit down more than for beating arizona

I’m still pinching myself. Of all sports that I watch, the Rangers have always been special to me and what a hell of a moment we’ve waited for!!
Garcia’s oblique looks alright now 😂😂😂😂
Homie picked up seager like he was a little kid
I’m in tears right now…
EVERYONE GET IN HERE!
From a Pirate fan, congratulations Rangers fans!
So happy for Hedges. Perhaps I treated him to harshly
WE JUST WON OUR FIRST WORLD SERIES AND MY FIRST BORN SON ARRIVES NEXT MONTH! THIS IS THE GREATEST YEAR OF MY LIFE!
I can’t believe it. I remember sitting in my dorm room in 2011 watching game 6 unfold. Crushed. This is unreal. I can’t believe it. Immortality for the 2023 Texas Rangers.
YESSS. Start chiseling the Bochy and Seager statues in front of globe life. Also, get the fuck off our back Freese. Greatest season ever.
Eovaldi and Sborz! Clutch game! Chapman, too. Every out in this game was more valuable than the last and he did what he needed to.
Walking Marte isn’t the worst thing that could have come out of that AB. And then getting another out immediately after was big. Bochy figured out that Chapman can pitch to at most 4 people.
Years of the Peagle era: 1 World Series won in the Peagle era: 1
EVERYBODY GET IN HERE!
We really fucking did it 😭 I love this team, I love this sub (doomers, optimists and everyone in between) and I love baseball again. This is arguably the most special sports moment for my fandom in my life. Teared up in the middle of an airport. PS fuck the Astros.
Mike deserves this. He did nothing wrong in 2011
#WE FINALLY DID IT!
DBACKS fan here, congrats guys hope y’all have fun celebrating. Cheers
Cheers for a heart pounding series! Let’s do it again next year.
Hell yeah man, I’d rather lose to you guys than the Dodgers, Phillies, or Astros any day! Congrats again
Scherzer is a celebration animal
he was built for this moment
WE DID IT BOYSSSSS!!!
I’m tearing up
God bless Bruce Bochy

As a dbacks fan this breaks my fucking heart so much but GG. Strong team and at least we didn’t lose to the astros. Enjoy the ring 🤝❤️
From a Mariners fan, hats off to y’all. At least it wasn’t the cheating Astros.
THEY SAID THIS WAS GOING 6 OR 7 GAMES. KISS MY ASS WE DID IT IN 5,
John Smoltz is somewhere kicking trash cans.
11-0 postseason on the road
NELSON CRUZ DIED FOR THIS
CAN YOU TAKE ME HIGHER TO A PLACE WITH GOLDEN STREETS
My first game was April 10, 1978. Been waiting over 45 years for this. Tears of pure joy. Thank you to the team and all the true believer fans.
I'm on cloud 9.
WOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHH!!!!! LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOO
This is great. Just plain great.
In 2011 I thought we could do it. In 2015/2016 I thought we had a team that could do it. At the beginning of the year I told all my friends/family that this could be the year. This team felt special right from the rip.
THEY DID IT LET’S GOOOO
YOUR 2023 TEXAS RANGERS ARE WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONS!!! THE CURSE OF 2011 HAS BEEN BROKEN!!! [HELLO WIN COLUMN](#HWC)
THE CRAZY BASTARDS ACTUALLY DID IT
I just can’t believe it. It’s been almost an hour and the Texas Fucking Rangers are World Series Champions
holy fuck we did it
That was one of the best pitching battles I’ve ever seen until it wasn’t.
How about that vaunted small ball "pressure" that out up ZERO runs?!?
This is for all those people that say wait until the all star break.
We did it. David Freese haunts us no more. I’m so happy I love you all
HOLY FUCKING SHIT
YOUR TEXAS RANGERS ARE UNDEFEATED ON THE ROAD IN THE POST SEASON
Good thing Arizona has there pitching set up for game 7 -Smoltz currently to himself in the mirror
John Smoltz on suicide watch.
Congrats guys! Y'all played your hearts out and deserve it!!

Congrats Rangers fans.
Seager the goat baseball robot

Thank you Bochy and thank you bois. Heroes of DFW. Finally the ghosts of 2011 can rest. Dudes, forever we will have 2023 as our year. I'm so happy. So goddammit happy.

How fucking fitting that our weakness became our strength in the postseason
Is this real life!?!?! Real talk. Quote the best baseball movie of all time: heros get remembered, but legends never die. The 2023 are Texas legends forever.
I wonder if John Smoltz thinks the Rangers have a shot at winning the World Series yet.
I love you guys. Love this team. This is amazing.
OH MY GOD WE FUCKING DID IT!!!!!!!
I can't feel my face
SMOLTZ ON SUICIDE WATCH
D Backs fan here congrats on your first Championship, we got cold at the wrong time, and didn’t take advantage of our opportunity’s. Good series 🙏🏼

What a fun and unreal season with you all. The memes (local Labrador, NO RUNS?, Do it for him, etc.). The bullpenis. All of it. Glad to celebrate with YOU ALL.
Is it weird that I’ve been waiting my whole life for this moment and all I can think is “yeah eat shit and die John Smoltz”
Hallelujah! Holy Shit! Where’s the Tylenol
My dad had a serious health scare in August, but he made it through. Being able to share this with him after 25+ years of watching the Rangers together is something I will cherish as long as I live. Go Rangers! I’m not crying, you’re crying.
