Yes. It most certainly does. You stated that Alou would have caugt the ball and it's Bartman's fault that he didn't. You say it cost them the pennant. It did no such thing. The Cubs choked the next game away with no imaginary assistance from Bartman.

Game 7 has nothing to do with this discussion.

This can be answered in one question: If Alou catches the ball, do we win game 6? What is your response to this question? I'll tell you mine: YES.

That wouldn't have been the last out of the game, so the answer you seek is a guess. The Gonzalez error came after that.

The interesting thing people forgot about the 2003 NLCS is we were up 3-1. People remember we were up 3-2 with a 3-0 lead with 1 out in the 8th. But people forget we won games 2, 3, and 4 and had a 3-1 lead heading into game 5.

Its been 13 years and I still can't believe we lost that series. Until we break through, I don't think I'll ever get over it.

Every day Alex Gonzalez wakes up he thanks God for the existence of Steve Bartman.
And nothing against Alex either. It was just a very routine ball he fumbled. You could understand it, if Castro did something like that, but Gonzalez? No way. He was a pretty darn good defensive SS. Stuff happens.

Lol
Instead of cutting Joe Smith they gave him a strained hammy and DL him..
So, there the roster move to get back to 25
I knew they'd keep Cahill in the pen

I still can't forgive him.

Gonzales was an elite gold glove defender. He makes that play 99% of the time.

Hey board of fucko's and the "70" year old troll. Lets bring it back in. 2003 has nothing to do with now and this may be the best Cubs team I have ever seen. Enjoy the ride and forget about Bartman. K. Thanks. Your resident moderator who can send all your asses to Cali including you egg scramble.
