Alright jrg, is that bandwagon seat still open? Im in for these next 4-7 games. Go Cardinals.
hop on. everybody else is all over the dodgers nuts
I'm rooting for the Cards to make the WS.. and then lose.
Same here. I want the Cards to beat the Dodgers, and the Tigers to beat the Red Sox. Then the Tigers beat the Cards in a WS rematch.
jrg, I cant speak for John, but I would rather see STL ultimately fail in the WS for a few reasons. First, they win enough. 11 WS titles (9 of them legit ), and 2 of them were recent. Its getting boring to see the Cards take the title. Second, I think both teams in the AL are better. And Third, nobody wants to hear you bragging for the entire offseason again. lol
Although if they do win, that just means the pattern must continue next year, and the Giants will be 2014 champs.
The Dodgers, Cards, or Red Sox winning would be terrible. The Tigers are the only hope left. They have the best 1-2-3 punch rotation in the Majors, they have the best hitter in the Majors, its its been almost 30 years for them. None of them are ideal, but theyre the lesser of the evils.
As long as the Dodgers dont win, thats all that matters though. I was disappointed to hear that Allen Craig wasnt healthy enough to play in this series.
Haha wait..9 of them are legit? All 11 are legit.
Cardinals winning never gets old..I figured you Giants fans would want is to win to keep the steak we have going.
Giants fans hate the Cardinals. I don't get it.
lol weve been over this. 2 of them came in 1942 and 1944 when a ton of the regulars were serving in WWII. 1942, 1943, and 1944 really werent totally legit seasons. It was a lot of fill in guys. They still technically count, but when a bunch of star players are missing its not really the same game.
I dont think Giants fans hate the Cardinals, were just annoyed by them. They win ALOT, which always brings on negativity from other fans. Heck, this is the 8th time in the last 14 years that the Cards are in the NLCS. Plus the fans can be extremely cocky and biased. I know you argue that every time, but Cards fans LOVE them some Cardinals players.
2002 and 2012 made up for 1987, but it probably just has alot to do with 2 winning teams being in the same league against eachother for a long time. Weve clashed alot over the years because of that. Giants have non divisional rivalries with the Cards, Braves, and Phillies. Not so much the Mets, Brewers, or Pirates.
