I hear that the weather in St. Louis is as crappy as the weather here is in Michigan. Cold and rainy. Perfect day for a World Series baseball game. Sounds just like the Tigers game 1s against the Yankees and the Rangers during this years playoffs.

Why can't St. Louis accept that they are sh*t? Also, is this year not a perfect example of how ridiculous it is that the All-Star Game decides home field advantage? A team with no business even being in the playoffs hosting the first game of the series. Baseball itself really does end when the fantasy baseball playoffs end.

Why they shouldn't be in the playoffs, because no one expect them to beat the Phillies. They won that's all, in sports it's not alwayys the team that deserve to win that win. As far as the home field advantage, i agree with you., but baseball has always been too traditionnal. They should have put the best second team years ago in the playoffs.

They're winning games at the right time. It's not difficult math.
You are quite a fine person, and I am very fond of you. But you are only quite a little fellow, in a wide world, after all.

Exactly.....That's why we also call it the POST season.........PRE season means doo-doo......POST season means it all.
They 100% belong in the playoffs.......they did everything needed to get there......Including beating the best team in the REGULAR season......which in this case means nothing.

Wow, this year's series is giving us a perfect example of how idiotic the All-Star Game deciding home field bullsh*t really is. God, the cardinals suck. How is this happening for the second straight year? David Freese pulling a whats-his-name Giants backup catcher and playing way above his ability. I mourn for baseball.

That is true when it comes down to it. I wish that baseball would go back to alternating years for hosting the WS (AL on odd years and NL on even) or at the very least the team with the best overall record of the final two gets to host games 1,2,6 &7.
I'd like to see them get back to starting the WS on Tuesday night as well. Having the road team host on Friday.Sat and Sunday was the way to go back in the day.
