    Don't get too down, and us Dodger fans shouldn't get too up. It's just one game. Don't buy into the media saying it's over.

    There are probably more Cub fans in the country than almost any other sports team, so I don't think everyone who says they are a Cubs fan is because of Eddie here.

    The media is saying it's over? News to me.

    Yeah who won two batting titles in Japan. I know you are used to players being average and below average (unless they are juiced) being a Giants fan. :)

    That's ridiculous. They don't think the Cubs can take 3 of 4 from the Dodgers?

    This series is far from over.

    Oh my god.

    One of the blowhards at my work was at the game and left early. I think I'd shoot myself if I missed the best moment in LA sports history.

    I was 15 and watching the game by myself in my room. I went batshit and ran down the hall, where my parents were jumping up and down. Still gives me goosebumps when they show it.

    Hopefully the debate. I want the Dodgers to win in a boring 8-0 game.

    By contrast, I want the debate to be full of heated exchanges.

    Hard to believe, but the debate is actually more important. :eek:

    It can be a win-win, tho. :D

    I agree that's why I told the Cubs fan not to think it was over.

    I was 9 and watching with my brother on our tiny portable t.v. (with a 6 inch screen?) in our bedroom.

    It was the first year I had watched baseball and, of course, had fallen in love with the Dodgers during their gritty, underdog season.

    Gibby's home run sent volts of excitement down my spine and I remember almost crying.

    The next day my brother and I went to the park with our bat (with a sawed-off handle) and a tennis ball and acted out the moment over and over again until we got it just right. :)

    Awesome. I remember the pregame show for Game 2 like it was yesterday. They spliced Gibson's HR together with the HR scene from the Natural. It was unreal.
