Yeah, that was pretty cool that they did that.  After all, one of them DID cost the Cubs the series.


Hehehehehehe...;)

Gotta say: I can't stand Cubs fans. I live in proximity to Cubs fans, to such a degree that the class I taught tonight was in a "multimedia classroom" -- projection screen, PC, DVD, VCR, pornpipe (thankfully no cable or broadcast). Game started about 1/3 of the way through class.  Yes, I took the breaks to give updates. No I didn't enjoy it.
But I did appreciate the applause when the Marlins clinched. Not crazed fans, but polite appreciation.   guys.

It would have been nice to see the Cubs in the Series, but I had to root for Pudge. Being a long suffering Rangers fan, it was nice to see him finally make it and get the credit he deserves.

I was hoping the Cubs would break the curse and make it, but I've also got to say I think the marlins are a better team...they really did a great job coming back from behind and winning the tough games

both teams

I wonder if that poor cub fan is still alive?  News said he was under police protection?

Yeah, cruiser outside his house 24 hours a day right now (most of my extended family is in Chicago).  Apparently there are 2-3 news choppers that have been circling his house since the night after the ill considered reach.

I think that after that catch, the Cubs lost thier focus.  

I feel sorry for that guy.



Cubs hat $15

New headphones $45

Causing the cubs to lose their chance at the world series: priceless

if they lost their focus then they shouldn't be playing professional sports.  They blew it, they choked bigtime.....that fan didnt cause all those runs.....crappy pitching did.
