clujer420 Posted October 15, 2003 Share Posted October 15, 2003 I was checking out ESPN.com, and here is the poll question for the day... Who is to blame for the Cubs' collapse in Game 6? 1) Dusty Baker 2) The Curse of the Billy Goat 3) The Fan 4) Bernie Mac Now, call me crazy, but wasn't Alex Gonzalez the one who booted a groundball that would have been a sure out? Wasn't it Mark Prior who allowed an RBI single to I-Rod and then a 2-run single to Derek Lee? Wasn't it Kyle Farnsworth who came in and allowed a sacrifice fly and a 3-run double to put the game out of reach? How could Dusty be to blame? What in the above paragraph could be blamed on the fan? What intelligent person blames their shortcomings on curses? And, LOL, Bernie Mac? The biggest thing that's wrong with this country is that nobody ever fails anymore. It's ALWAYS someone else's fault when something goes wrong in a person's life. There is NO accountability, and it is very sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aboz56 Posted October 15, 2003 Share Posted October 15, 2003 He is escaping criticism from everyone. On PTI, he wasn't even in the top 5 factors that caused the loss. He's lucky the fan was there to bail him out of the criticism after he booted that routine ball. Just goes to show they'll blame anyone, even if it's complete nonsense.
