Putting the Cards in the WS is a good thing? What kinda Cub fan are you, anyways?
(Otherwise, good analysis!)
From all of us down here in the Tampa Bay area, a hearty “You’re Welcome!” to all of the pale hose fans.
Yes, thank you. Next year, you need someone taken care of, let us know.
And, yeah by the way Omniscient, no real and true cub fan would ever wish anything well for the Cardinals.
You know it sad, but I’m touched that at least Boston is now lumped in with us as an Evil Empire.
We’re the arrogant ones and they’re the whiny ones.
**ShibbOleth ** Thank You Tampa.
**ArchiveGuy ** San Diego, you are the worst team to make the playoffs in 30 years. So enjoy and hope you face Atlanta, anyone else will knock you out in the 1st round.
I swear to God, I am going to give my friend Jim a beat-down. He is SUCH BAD LUCK. He was at Tampa-Cleveland games 1 and 2. He missed game 3 - we had no problems.
Hey bus guy, you are lucky Clevelanders aren’t as violent when they are posing as Indians fans as they are when they’re Browns fans. If this were a Browns/Steelers game, you might come home sans fancy hometeam shirt and a battery shoved up your nose. At the Jake, you’ll probably just have a few beers accidentally spilled over your head in a moment of passion. Unfortunately, our announcer Tom Hamilton has taught us that EVERY moment in an Indians game is a moment of passion 
See you in the playoffs 
No kidding, I know this. I’ve seen visiting Browns fans in Chicago and it was enough to convince me never to try that IN Cleveland. On the other hand, earlier this summer, I was at one of the Reds/Indians games, and I’ve also been to several Sox games there, and I have to say Cleveland baseball fans are way nicer than we are in Chicago to visitors.
See you at Alice Cooperstown before…and probably after!
I am surprised, I found Cubs fan to be great.
Philly, NY & Boston fans, we are without doubt the biggest group of jerks when you collectively toss a rival at us.
Just Thursday they hounded a Red Sox fan out of the game. He had the nerve to show up with a Red Sox hat in a Yankee- Baltimore Game.
We also take over Camden Yards on a regular basis these days. (Whenever Yankees are in town).
Philly fans will go after anyone and occasionally each other.
Met fans will break out into “Yankees Suck” chant during games with the Marlins or anyone else.
The Red Sox fans did this while celebrating the Patriots Superbowl victory.
A Yankee fan in Fenway is definitely taking a large risk. You’ll be lucky to only get a beer poured on you.
BTW, Baltimore fans are really good, they put up with a lot of stupid Yankee fans.
I’ve never been to a WhiteSox game in Chicago, so maybe the WhiteSox fans are nastier.
Ah, you never know. If that mediocre Cub team from two years ago could come within five outs of the World Series, anything can happen. Of course the White Sox have never won a postseason home game in my lifetime, and I’m not a kid . . .
Jealous.
It’s tough to get feisty in a place as pleasant as the Friendly Confines. Though we tend to muster it up for Cards games.
Yeah, remember the Legues? Plus, their usually armed.

Hear me out here, I’ve got a plan. The Cards don’t have a legacy of collapsing, and it’ll take decades before they have the type of complex that the Braves and Astros have. I’m hoping for a different kind of misery. A misery that only the Buffalo Bills know. I think the most painful thing for Cards fans right now would to lose the WS again in a sweep of course.
And the feeling is more than mutual on the WINNING side of this rivalry.
The Braves will choke, as is their tradition. The Astros aren’t nearly as good as they were last year (especially if Clemens can’t go) and the Padres are… well, let’s just say that I don’t think I’m the only one who would favor taking two Wild Card teams rather than someone from the NL West.
The AL is a mess. If the Indians get in, the Angels win the AL. If Boston does, the Yankees sneak past everyone.
Cardinals in 5.
Golly–and I thought I would have it bad rooting for ther Dodgers in Candlestick Park! (I did it four times!)
A Giant fan behind the “Dodger dugout” heckled the Dodgers all through one game. I heckled him back and got a lot of fans to laugh.
I told him that by the time the Giants made it to the Series again it would be the centennial of the earthquake. Little did I know how close I was! :eek:
(I once sang part of Danny Kaye’s song “The D-O-D-G-E-R-S Song” while waiting for a streretcar on Market Street. The part with "J-I-N-T-S–Jints!"
Someone said, “Step out on the streetcar tracks.” 
)
As for the White Sox, I wish they had someone like Urban Faber, who beat the Giants 3 times in the 1917 Series. 
Since I didn’t bump this I won’t feel any guilt updating.
There was a fairly good number of White Sox jerseys in the place, but absolutely no heckling, good natured or not to be seen from the Indians fans. Nothing. Nada. Zip.
I take that back, the girl in the Batters Eye View bar said “I really shouldn’t wait on you…” but she said it with a smile and then called me “hon”.
I was vocal during the game, even starting my own chant and heckling Indian batters.
And.
Nothing.
I kind of felt bad “woo-hoo-ing” my way out of the park after the Sox won.
