ESPN doing a great job of piling on

[Old Style]

I'm really torn as to whether or not I want to watch this.

[erik316wttn]

I can't watch. It still hurts.

[illiniguy]

I'll watch it, hope we get a chance to get that close again soon.

[manbearcub]

You couldn't pay me to go through that again. Stay far far away.

[davearm2]

I'm totally over the fact that the Cubs lost.

 

The fact that this dude's life was essentially ruined I still find very hard to process. It's sickening.

That's Alou already coming back down and pulling his arm back (note the closed glove). Here's Alou actually attempting to catch the ball (your pic would come in between these):

He's going over the railing trying to catch it.

 

 

that ball is in play, look at the relationship of Alous right arm (against the padding) and his left hand (directly above his right torso)

[SouthSideRyan]

[expletive], must we have this debate again?

[erik316wttn]

Alou would have caught the ball if he peed on his hands that day.

I'll never let it go. NEVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Old Style]

Alou would have caught the ball if he peed on his hands that day.

I thought he did that every day.

I'll watch it tonight, what the hell. With my fiancee watching with me, maybe she'll finally understand that I'm not exaggerating when I tell her how awful that night was

[BleacherBadger]

Turn down the lights. Fire up a few candles. Bottle of red. Box of kleenx. Framed photo of our starting rotation on one end table, a picture of Sammy's hop on the other.

 

Alex Gonazalez next to me. Alive or stuffed. Preferribly stuffed for safety reasons.

ESPN Classic is replaying the game before the documentary airs it looks like. I may watch the documentary but no way in hell will I relive the game. No way.

[Old Style]

Glad I don't get ESPN Classic anymore.

[javy knows my name]

Hahaha noooo way will I ever watch that game again.

 

I will try the documentary, if for no other reason than because I love 30 for 30

[Little Slide Rooter]

I'm really torn as to whether or not I want to watch this.

 

A few weeks ago, I had a moler extracted. I'm no more torn on wanting to watch this as I am having on that procedure done again.

[Sammy Sofa]

This is probably going to be a damn good documentary, you pansies.

[treebird]

i'm watching the documentary AND the replay of the game AND intentionally drinking myself to death tonight

 

bye everyone!

Somebody could make a fantastic movie about you someday. And you won't even have to go into hiding because you will be dead, in the interest of art.

[USSoccer]

Oh what a shock, Racisty McRacist is blaming Alou first and foremost.

[illiniguy]

First 15 minutes all about the 86 Red Sox. Thanks ESPN. We haven't heard enough about them.

[Soul]

I'm watching this.

 

And yes I'm wallowing in my Cub misery.

 

And yes I'm drinking.

[USSoccer]

So far this sucks

[NotSoSober]

So far this sucks

 

I love me some 30 for 30 and yep, so far it's the worst one I've seen. I don't give a [expletive] about the Red Sox

[Sammy Sofa]

I'm really liking this so far, depressing as it is.
