				So, Leitch just asked me this question: What would be worse &mdash; if the Phillies won the World Series on the five-inning mother nature rule or if they go on to lose this thing in 7 after this? I had to think about it. Obviously, if the Phillies lose this outright in the next three games (whenever those happen), the notion that this city's sports teams  are perennially doomed to fail could reach a whole new level:  This isn't a black cat or Bartman or Babe Ruth &mdash; this is GOD. Yeah, <em>HE</em> did this to us. Probably for pouring beer on children and cornering a terrified Rays fan in a bathroom stall.  				<a href="http://deadspin.com/5069629/life-lessons-in-philadelphia-fandom-nothing-comes-easy" title="Click here to read more about Life Lessons in Philadelphia Fandom: Nothing Comes Easy">More&nbsp;&raquo;</a>
