    I'm going to throw up - STL WS champs?!?!



    I think the 2nd worst baseball champion of all time regular season record wise (Mets in 72 had like 82 wins I believe).

    Is this the same team we smoked most of the year? Obviously the Tigers haven't been able to figure out the apparently suddenly great pitching, except former Red Sean Casey who has smoked STL pitching.

    Winning on errors and outfield slips, STL must have a lucky rabbit's foot in their pocket, especially Eckstein. Close to the worst record for a WS champion in history? Check. Lowest ratings for a WS in baseball history? Check.

    I really hope we sign at least one decent pitcher for next year to put in this staff so we can smoke this joke of a team.

    Game, I changed the channel before I could throw up. I really don't wanna hear Joe Buck hold himself to STL's joke of a team.

    Just shows what a little more hitting and pitching could have done for us. All those fans that wanted to throw up when Weaver was shutting us down at the end should realize also what a really good pitching coach can do for a team. Weaver just got himself a 2 or 3 year contract tonight.

    I remember one time going out to the mound to talk with Bob Gibson. He told me to get back behind the batter, that the only thing I knew about pitching was that it was hard to hit.

    We just didn't have pitching. Thank Milton and the 2 other random starters. Maybe Weaver will get the Milton sydrome. Watch him balloon to his career standard if STL signs him to a big deal.

    I would have given it to Molina.

    I agree. This Cards team sucked something fierce. They about blew their lead in the home stretch but guess what. They won. Such is baseball. A game of streaks as demonstrated by those Cards.

    As much as it makes me want to puke, i love watching those expressions when they won. Nothing shows the little league of a man when winning the big one.

    I hate to say it but I agree. Poorly played series and neither team "deserved" to win. Uggggh...
    It's absolutely pathetic that people can't have an opinion from actually watching games and supplementing that with stats. If you voice an opinion that doesn't fit into a black/white box you will get completely misrepresented and basically called a tobacco chewing traditionalist...

    The good news is, the last 5 or 6 teams to win the WS have been kind of mediocre the next season. I think winning can sometimes have a bit of a hangover effect.
