So if it were a 7-game series instead of 5, the Cubs would be down 3-0. Think they would win 4 in a row? That would be way more flukie than any 5-game series outcome. Face it, the Cubs choked, and they would have choked in a 7 game series too. Although, I also think the the Dodgers are a much better team than given credit. Torre took a while to get the team on the right track, but with the addition of Manny, they are looking pretty good. And their chances of beating the Phillies seems good too. Poor Cubs, but at least the fans get to wallow in another year of loveable loser syndrom.
