This is game 4.....of a 5 game series.....best of 5..........the 1st team with 3 wins...advances to the next round.....i think all NBA series are 7 game......best of 7.......i am not sure.....MLB.......the 1st round.....is best of 5........the next two are best of 7.......this is game 4................if the Chicago Cubs had won this..........there would not have been a game 5.......Chicago loses.....and the series went back to DC........where the DC Nats lost......

My point is this......from the Illuminati's view point......money..........backing up....Chicago had a 2 - 1 advantage in the series.......before game 4......winning that, in Chicago......they advance.......the season would have been over for the DC Nats...................but by losing game 4...........game 5 was in DC......now, in a MLB stadium.....like a soccer stadium......or an NFL stadium.........those places seat like 60 k to 80 k people.......80,000 fans packing into a stadium.....not only have to fork over the ticket  price.....which is not cheap......but usually buy some hot dogs......beer........pretzels............pepsi......etc......and those things.........are not cheap.....like in a movie theater or an amusement park............so extending this series......to the people who make money..........makes perfect sense.......b/c if it stopped at game 4...with a win by the Chicago Cubs.....the people in the Nat's organization......whether or not they go on to play for the pennant....would have forgone all the money they would have made.............pro sports are a business.............a for cash endeavor.....

Like the NBA lockout....which the media called.....billionaires vs. millionaires.......and how we all were kinda like........"what are they whinning about? they are making bank regardless".....the billionaires being the NBA owners......the millionaires being the NBA players....which is true of course....but what is more true.......it is more of a story about business man and business women and business partners vs. ballers..........a baller is expendable.......money is the main element in the equation..........once u understand just how much money is involved......................and that the bottom line is the single most imp element is pro sports.......the rest makes perfect sense..........a lot of owners do not care if they win or not..................if they are raking in the money......and are getting sex out of it.....................that is what is imp to them......just remember Don S's attitude.....
