    Cubs record vs Dodgers: 4-3 (3-1 home, 1-2 road) Travis Wood with 2 wins. 2 losses by the bullpen.
    Cubs record vs Nationals: 5-2 (4-0 home, 1-2 road) One of those losses we had the lead in both the 9th & 12th innings and the bullpen failed us.

    Nationals...murphy goes 0 for series!! I really dont care..Both teams have a shutdown ace but the cubs match well vs the rest. Pony boy Harper doesn't scare me..

    Not trying to be a downer, but I really don't want to face Daniel Murphy again.

    No, I don't either. Fuck that guy!

    Trust me, if we make the WS and I get chosen for tickets... I will be flipping a few. $72 grand! Hell, I'd take $25k for a set of 4! If I can pay my car & all my debt off, finance my trip to Chicago, and still go to a WS game myself... hell yeah!

    Dont get me wrong, if I won the ability to purchase tickets and got offered that for them, I'd do the same thing. That's some crazy shit.

    Once season ticket holders get their tickets, and VIP tickets are given away....

    Im thinking there can't be but 2-3,000 available? But what the hell do I know?

    Max is a Missouri Tiger. You guys should have seen him destroy in college. A giant amongst dwarves back then.

    Catching Hell was on ESPN 30 for 30 last night. Showed my 11 year old son who wasn't familiar with the story. He dug it.

    Shameful Cubs fans.

    Shame!

    Yeah, I'm pretty sure everyone has long moved past that, realized the error of their ways, and forgiven a poor man that had nothing to do with the Cubs either losing that game or the series. But thanks for your insightful commentary 13 years later.
