Steve Bartman was the guy who prevented the foulball to be caught by moises alou.

Just heard that many tv news helicopters are circling his house in case some crazy cubs fan tries to kill him. He may be on Leno tomorrow if he lives. He had to disconnect his phone this morning. He has not been able to leave his house all day. If the cubs lose tonite, alot of ppl fear he will not live to see tomorrow.

 

ah shit, now accordhybrid is gonna find that fool and kill him:doh:

take it easy alan, it's just a game

 

he better move to florida

 

I have yet to see the incident in question...anyone got a vid?

 

In Florida, Gov. Jeb Bush said an offer of asylum to Bartman might be a good idea, and an oceanfront retreat in Pompano Beach offered him a free three-month stay if he needed to get out of Chicago

 

The 26-year-old Bartman, a youth baseball coach, was escorted by security guards from Wrigley Field after he was threatened by angry fans and pelted with debris.
A police guard was posted outside the suburban Northbrook home where he lives with his parents. His brother-in-law — who read the statement to the media — said Bartman was “hiding somewhere. He just wants to move on and he wants the Cubs to win.”
Bartman apologized to Cubs fans and ex-players, including Ron Santo and Ernie Banks.
“I am so truly sorry from the bottom of this Cubs fan’s broken heart,” he said.
“I ask that Cub fans everywhere redirect the negative energy that has been vented towards my family, my friends, and myself into the usual positive support for our beloved team on their way to being National League champs,” Bartman said.

 

heres the guy, he's the guy with the blue cubs hat and earphones

 

what a bunch of idiots.

I thought they ruled that the ball was in the stands anyway, and even if the player caught it it wouldn't have counted.

 

obviously you don't know baseball, because if the player caught it, it WOULD have been an out.

 

no I don't know crappy baseball, but I read that in the newspaper. and even if it would've counted, they're still idiots for trying to hurt somebody over a damn game.
