<!--quoteo-->QUOTE <!--quotec-->ESPN orders documentary on Chicago Cubs scapegoat Steve Bartman
Steve Bartman, an accidental icon of Chicago Cubs futility, is getting thrust into the spotlight once more.
ESPN announced Wednesday that it has commissioned a one-hour documentary on Bartman, the Cubs fan whose attempt to catch a foul ball late in Game 6 of the 2003 National League Championship series was cast as some kind of catalyst in the long-hamstrung team's eventual collapse that year.
The revisiting of the Bartman incident and a look at its ugly legacy by Alex Gibney, writer-director of the Oscar-nominated "Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room" and the Academy Award-winning "Taxi to the Dark Side," will be part of ESPN's "30 for 30" series.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

The first game back was a little spooky. Like returning to the scene of a horrible crime you witnessed. It wore off after about 10 minutes, though.
I hope whoever made this fucking thing at least got Bartman's permission first. As if
anything else bad needs to happen to that poor guy.

This is retarded. Expect to hear ESPN to talk about curses and goats for weeks on end. That shit is so annoying.

Since you're agreeing with me, I retract my statement.

They're aren't the best-run team in baseball? I wish our front office sucked as badly as them.
There's nothing better than to realize that the good things about youth don't end with youth itself. It's a matter of realizing that life can be renewed every day you get out of bed without baggage. It's tough to get there, but it's better than the dark thoughts. -Lance
