It'll take a helluva lot more than just planets aligning for the Cubs to win another WS!

When the planets align that is when the worm hole will open up. Allowing the aliens to come thru and take over the world.

Remember you heard here first.

It doesn't seem that the five planets will be actually and totally aligned; rather, all five will be visible in the morning sky for the first time in a decade.
