Isn't that part of the experience?

Sure, on a line drive.
But that was a POP UP!
A FRIGGEN POP UP!
The guy's already had death threats, and the Rod Blagovoiach (IL's Gov) said something like "If that guy ever commits a crime in Illinois he's not getting a governors pardon"
I don't want him dead, I just want him to get a tattoo across his skull in about 17 different languages that reads:
"I'm the assclown that cost the Cubs the pennant in 2003"

I had a group of friends, that were watching the game together (I wasn't with them) and in the 6th, with the score 1-0 cubs, they said "**** it, lets go down there" left for wrigley, cubs made it 2-0 when they were on the way. They parked 4 blocks away while they got down to Clark and Addison they hear it's 3-0, as they're walking down Clark towards Waveland they see the "3" go up.
They're not there two minutes.
"4"
"7"
"8"
My buddy said it was the worst night of his life. I don't doubt it.

This whole year, there's been two Kerry Wood's. One of them shows up and walks 6 guys in 5 innings, the other one is a Roger Clemmens in his prime. If we get the good Kerry, we can win it tonight.
But I still think we're ****ed.
Then again, This team had to go to 5 to beat atlanta, and didn't clinch the division until the second to last day of the season. Nothing has come easy for the 03 Cubs and the universe owes us one so maybe, just maybe.
