Thanks, **Dolores Reborn**! 😃

Seriously, what a great NLCS. You guys have a great club - we got the breaks, but you guys are a classy organization.

Thank God. Some of us would prefer an alternative this week to watching you play with yourself.

Well, congratulations Cards! As a Boston fan, it would have been fun to watch the Sox have a chance at stomping on Clemens’ ass, but twas not to be.

Strange… there’s no feeling of angry urgency here. During the league series there was this overwhelming desire to see the Sox fight for their life against the Yankees, and crush the bastards. Now that that’s over, I’m just looking forward to a fun series. It’s… refreshing.

You guys have GOT to be kidding me. If you took my little bit of venting about not being able to go to a Series game seriously, you really ought to look into removing that stick from your ass.

The Cardinals are a fine ballclub, played a great series, blahdeblahdeblah. Happy now?
