BILL MURRAY: Well, the Cubs did not win a [World Series] championship for 108 years. That's like a war in your country! CRAIG DOYLE: No, we like to go 600-years, plus, Bill, to be fair! BILL MURRAY: You're right. In this country [England], they like to fight for 100 years at a pop. But we went 108 years and, when we finally did win, the had the second largest celebration in history, five million people came to Chicago to walk around in circles and say, 'It happened. It finally happened'."Craig Doyle did brilliantly, throughout a manic eight minutes, to just let Bill Murray go far, far off script and wander wherever he pleased, while somehow keeping the interview going. There was a surprise cameo from John Goodman, Murray and Doyle vaulting over corporate boxes, caps and baseballs being flung into the crowd and a rousing rendition of Sweet Caroline.

The Cubs head back home to Chicago where they host the Phillies in back-to-back games at Wrigley Field, this Wednesday and Thursday. Related articles:
