You know whats funny?

[shugknight]

I read this article, and it made me realize something. Bottom of the 9th, one on, one out, I think it was Chris Burke, he pops up a ball towards the stands by 3rd base.

Juan Uribe makes an amazing play and gets the out. Why did none of the Astro Fans get in the way via Steve Bartman? No offense, but when this is your series on the line, I would have at least tried to knock the ball out of Uribes glove. The ball/play was clearly in the stands (as you can tell when Uribe dove and all you saw was his lower torso in the stands) so fan interference wouldnt have been called.

It was just funny to think of it, now that it has all sunk it. Oh how great it is!! Thank you White Sox! For an amazing season! Houston congratulations, may you continue to beat up on the Cubs for many years to come. I KID! I KID!

Oh BTW:

In your opinion.. Will Clemens re-retire? and I think Bagwell is done, but what do you guys think?

The fans tried, it was just a kick *** play by Uribe. When I saw Crede stop I thouhgt the ball was in the stands already. Uribe came out of the blue and jumped just a tad bit higher than the other fans and made that spectacular catch. I saw one fan on the replay actually put his hands away as he saw Uribe in the corner of his eye. I think he's the only one that let Uribe catch it.

I donno, its pretty customary to see a player run for the ball in the stands and you'll unknowlingly get out the way to let him catch it. Those moments go so fast your instincts basically take over. The one that happened to Kornerko earlier in the series, dude knew what he was doing.
