See, I'm used to Dempster being a totally worthless pitcher, like he was all the seasons before this one. He was notorious as our closer and completely blowing leads, so the fact that he was actually really effing good this year has not locked into me at all. I guess for non-Cubs people, it's different. ><;
I will say it was very surprising to see, because Dempster scared the crap out of me before the series. That glove twitching thing he does before every pitch is like the mark of a serial killer, like he's toying with you before he strikes you out.
Also, James Loney almost gave me a heart attack before he hit that grand slam. He was swinging at the most ridiculous pitches. If he did not at least get a decent hit there, I am convinced the Dodgers would have lost the game.

I was so pissed at Dempster for all the walks he did. I wanted to bitch slap him hard.
