I wasn't planning on being here myself, but I guess I've gotten addicted to these threads.

Yep! Sorry about those Cubbies. Personally, I blame Dusty and Little for leaving their starters in too long....

Curses will make you do those kinds of things.

Dusty had lost confidence in his bullpen especially Veres, Alfonseca and Guthrie. His mistake was in not using Clement in relief in games 6 and 7. Grady Little's mistake was much bigger. The Redsox struggled the entire season with their bullpen. They finally got their act together in the playoffs with an outstanding bullpen performance then Grady doesn't pull the trigger and use them. That was a complete disgrace. He should get the boot for that one.
