Yes, it's amazing how easily people are riled when you mention PEDs with Sir Albert.

Personally, I could care less. None of us....not one of us.....no matter what we tell ourselves now.......has ever enjoyed baseball more then watching Big Mac. We watch sports to be entertained, and he entertained us. Who cares what he was taking.

A game that consists of a mere 13 minutes of total action needs a little PEDs to keep their audiences attention.

As of 5:12 p.m. local time (in O'Fallon anyway) might have overstated the precipitation.

I've been wasting my time on cardstalk via stltoday. My perception is off. Talk about insanity.

This is pathetic.

I'm not trying to be pessimistic, but I think the Freese error and subsequent run was the last straw--I think that seals the Series for the Rangers. The Rangers left the door open so many times and the Cards have benefited and then shot themselves in the foot immediately after. You can only do that so many times...and I think that was it.

They should all go sit in the box and feel same.

Will Holliday ever be liked in this town again? Another error and getting picked off at third?

Just brutal. I'm surprised they made this far. With starting pitching that most of the time can't get past 4 innings...terrible clutch hitting, including Pujols going 0 for everything except Game 3...and a bullpen made up of castaways.

Good scrappy team, but the mojo just ran out. Good run. It took a few years off my life, so it was worth it. :lol:

I hate to say it, but I think the World Series ended during the inning with Napoli’s double. It just felt like that pulled any remaining momentum away from the Cards. But they’ve had their backs against the wall for two straight months, so anything could happen.

I think we saw a lot of what I've come to expect from this line up....save Freese......They ca pile up the hits and the RBIs in blow outs but coming up with a clutch hit is like pulling teeth.
This has to be the tastiest crow you have ever eaten.

That game was awesome!

THANK GOD for David Frees and Puma......they have ice water in their veins (perhaps they will give Albert a small transfusion this evening).

Carp got rocked the last time he worked off short rest and both bullpen's are spent so we may see a lot of scoring again tonight.

WEWEWWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!

I was at Busch, but outside the gates when they made the last out. I apparently passed out before it came on, but my cousin told me when I got home from work today that MLB Network zoomed in on him and I when the final out was made. Kinda cool. Anyway, last night was one of the coolest experiences of my life. Just being down there with everybody celebrating was insane. If I get a chance I'll try to post some of my pictures from the stadium (they let us in for the ceremony). Doubt it's tonight though. Somehow I managed to make it until tonight without getting sick despite being at a bar seemingly nonstop for the last 3 weeks watching games.
