Rather than face the mind-numbing paradox of both teams having to lose in the World Series if they faced each other, the Cubs gracefully bowed out of this series by blowing a 3-1 series lead. Even better, they've managed to place all of the blame on a single fan. The Red Sox usually have to blame the Yankees and Babe Ruth. It remains to be seen whether the Sox, now having forced Game 7, will follow the Cubs gracious lead and bow out as well. No one wants to watch a Marlins World Series anyways.
