It was a great night for the Bay State!

When you are playing for a spot in the World Series, it helps to be playing a team that forces you to do even better than your best.

The Tigers are a formidable team with a scary pitching staff and awesome, albeit, silent bats. They had a terrific season and I hope their fans are proud of all they accomplished.

As for the World Series, the Sox have played the Cards 3 times with the Cards up 2-1. I wasn't born for the first match up but I remember them demolishing us in the Impossible Dream season of 1967. That series was almost as bad as the ball thru Buckners legs series with the Mets.

But, it was the Cards we swept in 2004 for our first world series win since 1918.

My 2004 World Series hat is looking ragged. A 2013 one would be sweet!

No 2007 hat? Too soon after 04?

A 2013 hat would really hit the spot.

What a melt down for the Cards. It's a good thing they can only lose 1 game out of this. The only good thing was Beltran's catch in right field and he hurt a rib.

Everything is true to form so far, every team I have rooted for this playoff season has lost, lol.

That's ok.

Number of World Championships:

Yankees 27
Cardinals 11
Red Sox 7

Hah!

Hah!

Now that's just mean.

And it doesn't change the fact that you root, they lose. Keep up the Sox hating that's all I can say.

My teams are the Oakland A's (from childhood) and NY Yankees (lived in NY state for 10 years), and I am warming up to the Braves now that I am in the South. However, I actually do root for the Red Sox sometimes, lol, so you are not always safe. Oh god I still remember screaming at the tv for them to take Buckner out against the Mets. True story.

I think this curse is just this year though. My A's and Yanks have won several World Series with me cheering them on.

The Cardinals did prove one thing tonight.....shoddy fielding will come back to bite you in the ass. When that ball dropped between Wainright and Molinda even the cat was like wtf???

Beltran robbing Ortiz of that grand slam was awesome tho. Hope he is ok. He hit that bullpen wall awfully hard.

it's ok Miss Tick. my sportsmanship has also been fake LOL. i shake hands and say you all play a good game, ... but i don't mean it! lol
