Seriously? A press conference for Wood's return? He is living off a legacy of one game.

 

Do you mean his chokejob in game 7 against the Marlins? :)

 

God that was such a wonderful night. I seriously might not be alive today had the Cubs won. Suicide was an option. Well not really. But you get the point. I will ALWAYS love those pesky '03 Marlins. Well, except for Juan Pierre.

Hey, he hit a homerun that game!

 

I actually just loved that Marlins team in general for some reason(looking back on it now, I have no f***in clue why) before they even met up with the Cubs.

I'll say this much, I felt like my TV was shaking when Wood hit that HR. I've never heard a stadium that damn loud. I would've went deaf had I actually been there. I literally yelled out loud after the HR "f*** IT! THE MOTHERf***ING CUBS ARE GOING TO THE WORLD SERIES!" I just assumed they had destiny on their side or some s***. And then Alou hits his HR? I shut that b**** off until I was alerted by a friend that the Marlins had taken a 6-5 lead.

Supposedly the Yankees were prepaired to offer Wood $10 million over 2 years.

 

The coverage on the radio yesterday was priceless. Jurko was trashing him pretty good as it being a riding off into the sunset and becoming an ambassador for the rest of his life. He is the new Ron Santo in my book.

That's exactly what I thought when Wood signed. Who knows, maybe he has a deal to take Santo's chair when he's done playing. He'd make probably at least triple what Jurko is making, get almost 6 months a year off, and would be able to do it for as long as he wanted. He obviously doesn't need the money, so he's the guy who gets the last laugh at everyone trashing him.
