I'm still in shock. What an incredible game that showed just how tough and gritty this Cubs team is. A lot of teams (most certainly Cubs teams of the past) would have folded after that homer to tie. But the Cubs battled back. Amazing. I'm a zombie today at work. But all my friends here in New York are congratulating me so it's pretty sweet. I agree that Maddon's decisions were questionable at best -- I was screaming at the television when he took Hendricks out. But I do believe he was the right guy to lead this team. He kept the Cubs loose all year under incredible pressure. And they obviously love the guy and play their asses off for him. Again, amazing.
