...Florida. Gov. Jeb Bush has offered the 26-year-old Cubs fan who deflected a critical foul ball in Game 6 of the National League Championship Series on Tuesday night a way to escape his police-guarded Chicago home and live a normal life: Move to Florida. They love him there.

After all, the Florida Marlins won that game and Game 7 and will now be in the World Series--for the second time in its 10 year history. The man, whose identity is not being revealed by several news outlets as a way to protect him from irate Chicago baseball fans who blame him for the Cubs' loss and the World Series that slipped away from them, would also be given free airfare and a free three-month stay provided by the Holiday Inn Oceanside Pompano Beach, reports The Associated Press. "People are compassionate in South Florida and people are talking about the unfortunate circumstances he must be facing today," Chuck Malkus, a spokesman for the property, told AP.
 
If the Cubs were really championship material, one incident like that wouldn't have cost them the entire game. It's sad it has to even be offered.

Speaking of game, that's all it was. A game.

Police-guarded home in Chicago? Christ... Now THAT'S bad.
 
I think Jeb was just adding insult to injury. It was a sly way of thanking the guy for helping give the Marlins the win. :lol:
 
Stop! The Cubs blew it. Plain and simple. Fans should blame the team, not some poor kid who did what MANY would have. But desperation does strange things.
