Swiss Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 Last night I saw the best World Series game ever played.This one is better before of 1975 WS Game 6 and 1986 WS Game 6.Funny thing was that I was remembering Kirby Puckett and his 1991 WS Game 6 heroics a few innings before the last night's fantastic ending.

Swiss Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 What an incredible game. But wait! The Yankees, Red Sox, and Phillies are not in this World Series so it's gonna suck!This has been great for baseball.Well... actually the Red Sox played two of the best remembered World Series ever: both were Game Six from the 1975 WS and the 1986 WS. Although I'm a Red Sox and Giants fan, I think last night was the best ever World Series game.

The reason ESPN (I wont even watch it anyway) talks about the same teams all the times is amount of interest and fan support. Maybe if people in your pathetic excuse for a city actually supported their teams, lived and died with their teams, and invested countless time and money in their teams, they would get attention. Until then, get used to it, you live in an inferior market. Done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philly97flyer Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 Welp, I've been rooting for the Rangers since the series began.But the Cardinals are going to win it (unfortunately). Momentum is on their side, Game 7 is at Busch and Rally Squirrel is coming through.I really despise the Cardinals, not just because you guys beat Ted and Yaz in the World Series, but because you're the Yankees of the NL and - just like in 2006 - you got hot at the right time, and a couple of bounces went your way, and now you're World Champions.But I'm not complaining that much. It's been a great series and game 7 will be fantastic.I love how everyone on my facebook are suddenly "lifelong" Cardinals fans. Man, does that team have a wagon. I had to go to bed early last night and missed the 11th inning, so I was unaware as to who won. I got my answer when I woke up just now to find a facebook-gasm of "AHH OMGZ CARDZZZZ!!!" plastered all over the news feed. Needless to say, as I'm personally pulling for the Rangers (lots of family from Texas), I wasn't too happy about it. Losing that game after being a strike away - twice - is a wretched pill to swallow.Just like all the "lifelong" Red Sox fans from 04 to 09. The pink hats piss me off.That pink hat segment those guys on the radio do up there is absolutely priceless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crashcarson15 Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 I love how everyone on my facebook are suddenly "lifelong" Cardinals fans. Man, does that team have a wagon. So, it happens out in Utah, too? There's a reason I'd really like to see the Rangers win this, and it's because of that wagon that just crawls out of the woodworks come October. I mean, damn, it's like around here, the Cardinals are everyone's "second team" if their team's out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saintsfan Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 Last night I saw the best World Series game ever played.This one is better before of 1975 WS Game 6 and 1986 WS Game 6.Funny thing was that I was remembering Kirby Puckett and his 1991 WS Game 6 heroics a few innings before the last night's fantastic ending. I personally would take the 75 game six ahead of this one, if only because the general standard of play throughout was better (specifically fewer defensive plays blown). But it was one hell of a thrilling game. To be one pitch from winning the World Series twice and have your opponents come up with big hits both times, and then lose to a walk off homer must be about as heart breaking as sports gets. But then the Reds came back to win game 7 in 1975, so if I were a Ranger fan right now I would be quite bullish still. 2011/12 WFL Champions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And these are all kids I went to school with and played ball with, so I know them well. I'm scratching my head because last week and as long as I've known them, all these guys were Angels, Red Sox, Yankees, D'Backs, or Rockies fans! There's nothing "lifelong" about thier fanship for the Cardinals at all EDIT: Hell, I just remembered that even the Governor said he was a Cardinal fan yesterday on the news. The opinions I express are mine, and mine only. If I am to express them, it is not to say you or anyone else is wrong, and certainly not to say that I am right.

Cujo Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 Predictions for tonight's game: Cardinals boatrace the Rangers. Final score: 8-2. MVP award will go to Phat Albert. (Not sayin' he will deserve it.)Joe Buck will bore all 89 people watching on FOX to death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedSox44 Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 http://bleacherreport.com/tb/bbKdxDidn't the Shea Stadium jumbotron post "Congratulations 1986 World Series Champions Boston Red Sox" in the middle of the 9th inning of Game 6 '86, just before the comeback?I sense something similar happening here.I really despise the Cardinals, not just because you guys beat Ted and Yaz in the World Series, but because you're the Yankees of the NL and - just like in 2006 - you got hot at the right time, and a couple of bounces went your way, and now you're World Champions.Like in 04 when the cardinals had the best record in baseball but lost to a team that was down 3-0 but got red hot and won 8 games in a row??Who was that team again? Someone's still a bit bitter Regardless on whether the Yankees or Sox won the AL in 04, they would've both taken out the Cards (or the Astros, for that matter).I really despise the Cardinals, not just because you guys beat Ted and Yaz in the World Series, but because you're the Yankees of the NL and - just like in 2006 - you got hot at the right time, and a couple of bounces went your way, and now you're World Champions.Like in 04 when the cardinals had the best record in baseball but lost to a team that was down 3-0 but got red hot and won 8 games in a row??Who was that team again? Yeah cuz a 3-1/2 week slump in August determines how good a team really is more than the previous 4 months or following 2 months.Seriously. The Red Sox were good enough to win the AL East, a mid-year slump ruined their chances. They went 98 and 64, and I doubt anyone would've been surprised had they won 100 games. They stuck with the Yankees all year, and nearly won the division.There's barely any correlation between the '04 Sox and the '11 Cards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CS85 Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 I'd compare the Cardinals to the Rockies from 07 more than anything. Wild card team that found a way to get in and got pretty hot. Obviously they didn't go on the tear the rockies did, but they're just one of those damned franchises that is built to survive the season and thrive in the clutch.

The Cards haven't been quite as hot as the Rockies were in '07, but have had a lot more success in the World Series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiddySicks Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 So will Matt Holliday even be invited into the stadium to watch the game tomorrow night, or did his pathetic excuse for a performance tonight rule that out? No way he starts. He's been a ghost since he got to St. Louis, and did all he could to hand the game to Texas tonight. Something has gotta give.And apparently, something DID give.Oh so now it's your wrist, Matt? Sure thing, whatever you say. Have fun watching from your couch.

lordsketor Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Kinsler is channeling his inner "Holliday" on the base pads so far. And it costs Texas a run even though its 1-0.Edit:2-0. Many thanks to Discrimihater for making the sig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
