I don't think America is safe for the poor guy now.

1. is he dead

if the cubs lose game 7?

2. Pretty much

If this guy was in Boston, his house would be ashes by now.

3. I don't think he will be safe on the streets

of Chicago. On CBS they said there are Chicago cops guarding his home. He was asked not to report to work today.


Wow....

Not the way I would like to end up on the front of the Trib that's for sure.


GO CUBS!!!!

4. You do know that this is sick, don't you?

It's a game. People are dying all over the world. It's a game.

Leave the guy alone.

5. Local NBC affiliate interviewed Blagoevich.

He said (to paraphrase) that as governor, he would recommend the witness protection program. As governer and a lifelong Cubs fan, there was no pardon forthcoming.

6. I hope he was joking

And even if he was, he shouldn't have. As Governor, it's his job to put this in perspective--it's a game. A guy shouldn't have to live his life in fear over this.

7. I don't want to see him dead over such a trifle.

Two broken arms would be enough for me. ;-)
