I agree with you on the perspective issue, MaryCas. And you have a valid point on what constitutes a "pivotal point" in any given game. However, for better or worse, you gotta' remember some folks watch ball games to escape the harsh realities of life. I personally think it's a downright shame how much these players make, how much emphasis is given to sports in general, etc. On the other hand, I can relate to the outrage of Cubbies everywhere, albeit I think there should be a little maturity and restraint shown. But crap, I recall how I felt just last Saturday night when the Tennessee Vols gave the game to the Georgia Bulldogs in college football!!
