sure if they want to say that i really dont give a rats ass.
But if you want to ignore the differences between one of the BEST closers of the year (street) and the absolute worst closer of the year (Lidge) than that is your choice. I doubt the Rockie fans KNEW for certain that Street would blow it. I knew as soon as they showed Lidge in the bullpen.
the WS loss is not totally on Lidge by any means. All he did is perform exactly how we expected him too. Manuel/Hamels/Howard/Ibanez/Shane/Jimmy can split the blame with "Keep the Lights On" Lidge.
