Sweet! :-)
There are 3 guarantees in life; death, taxes, and the leadoff walk coming around to score.
Scutaro .500 average in the NLCS. Astounding.
It's a great day to be alive. Lucifer's All-Stars finally ran out of soul-selling power down on the Crossroads.
Hats off, Giants.
Rounding third and heading for home...
From champagne to complain! Cards fans are already crying about the Giants celebrating.
The Wicked Witch of the NL Central is Dead! Glad to see the Reds aren't the only team to lose 3 in a row to the Giants!
LULZ!
That pretty much describes my feelings on this.
Let's try to keep it in one thread, though.
The St. Louis Voldemorts have been defeated!
Only Cards fans...

Homophobic and racist, tremendous place for haters

I'd leave it to a bitter Reds fan to pick out the minority of negative tweets to assume all Cardinal fans were negative about the series. When in fact Cardinal Nation had #12in13 treding just an hour after the loss. If that doesn't show through the best fans in baseball I don't know what does.
Either way it was another more successful season than the Reds had.
Reds 97-65 (1 win shy of best MLB)
Cardinals 88-74 (clinched on last day of the season)
Postseason:
Reds: lose number one starting pitcher in 1st inning. But win first 2 games, but lose to the resilient Giants the next 3. However all games were somewhat close and Game 4 had Leake as SP for injured Cueto.
Cardinals: make the postseason by first year expansion rule. Win WC play in on controversial 225 ft Infield Fly Rule. Beat the Nats in 5 games. Beat the Giants in 3 out of 4 games, but then score 1 run the next 3 games and miss the WS.
I would say yes the Cardinals did make it further, but saying they were more successful is debatable.
Oh, and by saying you guys have the best fans as an excuse for your team being better is laughable.
No it wasn't, nobody gives a damn about the teams who loses the LCS.
The Reds for the next 11+ months will be called the defending National League central division champions and will be known as a Division Champion for the rest of baseball history while the Cards became a footnote to the Giants NL pennant and will be forgotten as quick as the other LCS losers.
95-80 .543 for the Cards
99-68 .593 for the Reds
