Re:GUY THAT MADE THE CUBS LOSE

It's a sad commentary on life in the US when, with all the injustice, evil, and sadness in the world, so many get so worked up over "Sports".

Personally, it ceased to be a "sport" when the "Athletes" are paid more than the Pres. off the US.


Vent mode off.

What he said. :

Just curious though...if it was a foul ball, how did him trying to catch it cost the Shubs the game??

Re:GUY THAT MADE THE CUBS LOSE

It appeared to be a makeable foul catch to end the inning. Leftfielder Moises Alou ran to the wall and reached with his glove near the railing, but a fan wearing headphones and a Cubs hat stuck out his hand and deflected the ball away.

Bad to worse. I heard they released him full name to the public today. The poor meathead needed armed guards to escort him out of the stadium after the game had ended.

That guy didn't make the Cubs lose. It's the "Curse of the Goat". ....shoulda let the goat in :

I believe if I were him I'd sue the pants off of the people that released my full name and address....and then I'd move to Texas.

Re:GUY THAT MADE THE CUBS LOSE

The whole thing is stupid really. I bet 3/4 of the people given the same opportunity would have grabbed for the ball. I can't believe how fanatical some sports fans are- Usually it's people that are'nt any good at sports themselves so they live a dream through athletes- pretty pathetic :

Wonder if he has a CCP? A nice 40 cal would sure be a good deterant

Re:GUY THAT MADE THE CUBS LOSE

The guy did reach over some, but I do not have a problem with it. It's not like the guy had half his body over the wall going for the ball.

Re:GUY THAT MADE THE CUBS LOSE

It all sounds like a embarrasing mistake. I probley would have tried to catch it too. I probley would have fumbled it as well. I definatlywould have sued the stations.

Re:GUY THAT MADE THE CUBS LOSE

An 8 run foul ball? I don't think so. The pitcher should have been pulled for that batter anyways. Either way, he'll make some bucks off of this. Just hope his lawyer doesn't take it all away.

"Florida will take him..." I like it! lol
