Yeah, the poor kid couldn't even leave his house to go to work with all the press swamping his house. There were quite a few helicopters hovering over his house for hours.

If the Cubs fans are supposedly as great as everyone says they are, they'll let this go.

The guy cost us 1 out (assuming Alou catches the ball). He didn't cost us game 1, 5, or 7. And there's no guarantee we would've won game 6 if Alou did catch it.

Yeah, he ****ed up. And he has to live with that the rest of his life. But it's a goddamn game, folks. He doesn't deserve to have his face plastered on the internet or tv, and be hounded by press.

Time to grow up, children. Deal with it, and wait 'til next year.

The only person to blame for the Cub's choking is Dusty Baker. Not often do you see a more pathetic use of a bullpen than this fiasco. Leave Wood in there, even though he's already allowed how many runs. Oh, the limit is 7 great. The vaunted Cubs O can overcome that. Oh Prior pitched 11? pitches a few days ago, lets have him pitch into the 8th tonight, even though its clear he has lost it.

People in Chicago know that Dusty isn't the greatest field manager. His strength is what he does in the clubhouse and how he treats his players. His strength got him to where they were, and his weakness determined the final outcome. But it's better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.

What he needs is a good bench coach to help him during the game.

Nobody else than me. My week has been EXCELLENT. Got two A's and keeping my GPA in highest possible, got my internet connection finally, got my gov support money rolling in fashionably late therefore I have now more money than usually (hey maybe I can eat now?) and last but not least I saw a real punk who got beaten up by security guard. Ecxellent week, couldn't get any better.

Hey look at this egomaniac trying to be special! YEAH!

I hope he issued that from France. That guy is a dead man once some rapid Cubbie hunts him down.

What he needs is to let go of his ego enough to listen to the good bench coaches he already has.

I think Dusty takes all his advice from that little wipper snapper that he totes around everywhere
