Braves cant hold their lead now tied 3-3 in the 9th
Anybody else think it would be pretty funny if the Cards make the playoffs only to get run over by Philly?
I remember quite a few Cards fans last season talking trash about how the Reds haven't made the playoffs in years only to have been eliminated quick enough that you could've blinked and missed it...

I don't want The Cards in the playoffs, but part of me thinks it would be hilarious if there was no game 163 and Pujols finished the season with 99 RBI... in his contract year. Not that it would matter, he's still going to get a key to Fort Knox, but still.
Anyway, here's hoping The Braves can somehow get out of their own way and pull this game out.
It's even more fun to watch "the best fans in baseball" act like just making it to the playoffs this season would justify their teams season as being successful... Because I got trolled to death last season posting on a Cards forum for saying that by merely winning the division the Reds had a successful season...
Because in StL we don't get excited about making the playoffs. We expect it... And that's the difference between Cardinals fans and Reds fans... We're used to winning and have higher expectations because of it... And the simple fact that you're excited about playing an extra 3-5 games over the rest of the league means that you're a fan of a scrub team.
Or something to that effect.

It wouldn't surprise me if the Cardinals reach the World Series. 2006 all over again. Epic choke by the Braves.
I hate the Cardinals, but they deserve a tip of the cap. Hope they get swept.
What a knife twisting defeat for Atlanta at the hands of their rival, the new king, Philly.

I don't know why, I always prefer NL Central teams making the playoffs. Forget Atlanta.

Biggest downside to all this, more Berkman. I can't stand that guy.
