None of the media "experts" gave the Cards a chance against the Padres, and certainly not the Mets, and the latest word was that the Tigers would sweep them. Well, the Tigers are good and they might win before it's done but after Game One tonight, we can say for sure they're not going to sweep.
As a Cardinals fan for the past 55 years or so, I absolutely love it that no one is giving them any chance this post-season. That takes pressure off them and they are producing. It's great. That Game Seven win over the Mets was a classic.
And thanks Karlynn for graciously starting this thread. If I recall correctly, you're a White Sox fan. They have a good team and they will be back.
Cheers,
