He f'd this up.

This game is a bit too exciting for its own good.

:blink:

Well, I wasn't expecting that.

Dan Uggla sucks.

That sucked.

Bank of America: Yeah, we bought Countrywide. So what? Want to fight about it?!

Ok, so say it does end in a tie, what determines HFA in the WS? Best record or interleague W/L? I believe they would go to a two-man sack race held on consecutive Sundays. Carlos Zambrano better be one of the competitors.

I'm not sure you understand the rules. We're running out of pitchers and position players on both sides. I don't think the managers do, either.

Joe Buck hates Ryan Dempster.

I'll laugh if this game ends in a tie.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand here comes Dempster to blow it.

Typical.

That remains one of my all-time favorite Cubs games to this day.

I can't believe, you of all people, didn't recognize the Eephus Z has a 55 mph curve in his arsenal. That looked like the pitch.

Zambrano does not approve of Milton Bradley.

Good going, Hanley. :evil:

Was that the slow curve?

Poo. Holes.

Live interviews with 83 year olds are asking for unpleasantness Tommy Lasorda would dispute that.

Did Yogi just call Joe, "Jack"? Does he think he's talking to Joe's father?

Rick Reilly thinks he's Bill Simmons, given the blackjack analogy.

I don't think MLB wants to be liable for all of the deaths that would result from that.
