John Lackey Was A Quote Machine After The Cubs Clinched The NL Central

The MLB regular season is winding down, teams are clinching playoff berths and we can finally get some baseball that matters here pretty soon. The defending champ Chicago Cubs finally clinched the NL Central last night, but all I really care about is the show John Lackey put on in the locker room after the game.
It sounds like he’s going to retire after the playoffs, so he was in full IDGAF mode with these quotes.

“I didn’t come here for no F’ing haircut”

Not sure exactly what this means, I’m sure Cubs fans would know, but I still love it. I’m glad the TV people were slow to the bleep button. Nothing better than a few bomb slipping through the cracks.

“I’m always one out closer to the beer”

Somebody put this on a t-shirt. Whether it’s your beer league softball team or an MLB team making a playoff run, you’re always one out closer to the beer.

Not a quote, but still an amazing picture


All around, it was an incredible post-game performance from Lackey. From the quotes to the drinking, I give it an A+.
