Six more outs. It was in the 8th inning with a 3-0 lead when Bartman happened. Cubs are currently up 5-0, but we will see.

The dreaded 8th is coming up.

Watched a documentary about him and all the threats of injury / death he received after that...because of a game...

The people who did that should be ashamed of themselves they are no better than the people threatening the Az Republic with death threats and spitting on the kids soliciting subscriptions to the paper.

and what makes the reviling of him so despicable is that his grabbing the ball did NOT lose the game for the Cubs. They played poorly the rest of that game and only have themselves to blame.

about a guy named "Al Nino" who was getting harassing phone calls and death threats. Like the weather was his fault.

There are some dim-ass bulbs out there.

"Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I’m not sure about the universe!"

The quote is attributed to Einstein but there is some debate about that. Regardless who said it, it does not diminish the truth of the statement.
