And Belliard may not have intentionally landed on Reyes, but he didn't need to stay on top of him for as long as he did. You don't have to agree with me on that, because that could be just my opinion.

But can you explain the point of this?:

There's nothing wrong with celebrating your victory, but come on.

I'm sure you still see nothing wrong with it. Whatever, I'm done.

Go Tigers.
I just puked all over myself reading this.

-Tom Glavine is a Hall of Famer. He also sucks, right now, today. Tom Glavine sucks. There, I said it- it's the truth. Pujols was right - they should have shelled the guy.

-Belliard "stayed too long" on Reyes? Really? Sports, dude - sports. In the immortal words of Herm Edwards, "YOU PLAY TO WIN THE GAME. THIS IS WHY YOU PLAY." You're being a homer. Don't.

-I would be much more pissed if the Cardinals DIDN'T mock the (incredibly lame) "Jose" chant. You were right in exactly one sentence - "There's nothing wrong with celebrating your victory." Competition is not a tea party, and it should not be a tea party.

Ok, fooie on you for that part!

It's a fun one! It's one of my favorite sporting event chants actually (though doesn't come close to punching my fist to a rousing round of 'Hail to the Voctors'!).

I loves me some "Joe Kings" (as my husband likes to call him).

hahaha, ok, you're right - I shouldn't have gone with 'lame' because lame ones are usually the best, let's be totally honest.

I think mocking the chants, though, is totally fine - they were prohibitive underdogs, and won. That's what happens.

i think other than the "drama" that was mentioned above posts, that it's been a pretty interesting series so far, and I look forward to enjoying the conclusion


go cards

(Kathy you might appreciate this little hijack...)
My fiance is home in Detroit this week with tickets to the home games. He had so much fun last night with his brother he got a little drunk & bought some hideous Tigers jacket. If he thinks it's hideous I can only imagine what it looks like. I told him it needs to STAY in Michigan. LOL


ROOOAR!

LOL, Michelle. After the win my husband offered to buy me a jacket like the team was wearing. I said, "WTH would I want that?" If he was drunk when he got it, it's got to be bad!!

Hey, how'd he get tickets?!? It's my dad's 60th birthday this week and we'll be back in Detroit for Game 6 - so if it gets that far we'd love to take him to the game. So far we've had no luck tracking down a pair.

I got a text msg just aftermidnight that they had won. I'm sure it was an after the game & a few beers purchase!

Tickets came thru some sports-world connections. He knows someone at MLB who hooked him up. Tho he didn't want to 'owe' him so he paid for most of them I think. Which I think is crazy considering he could get the MLB guy Knicks or Nets tickets & call it a fair trade. Well ok not FAIR since these are World Series tickets & the Knick's aren't really the same callibur in the basketball world...but still. Good luck finding a pair - I wish I had better advice!!

I about died when I heard Berman say "Winnie the Pujols" last night. Holy shit.

I hope the Tigers win, even if Magglio Ordonez sounds like a guy who would come in the night to kill you.
