Okay, great job, Houston. They played a great series, and while we were hit hard by injuries (Scott Rolen, anyone?), they won - mostly - fair and square. I don't want to sound bitter, but is there a chance they'll name Umpire Phil Cuzzi MVP of the series? Kidding, of course.
For those of you who don't know the supreme class of the St. Louis fans, not only did they stand and cheer after the final out, but they ended up chanting, "Let's go, Astros!"
Sad to see the old Busch Stadium go, but the new Busch Stadium is supposed to be great. No doubt that the Redbirds will be back next year - not to mention the 'Stros will be a lot different. A lot of them will be leaving after this year, and I'd be surprised if at least two out of three of Clemens, Biggio, and Bagwell don't retire now that they've played in a World Series in Houston.
Great year, Cardinals. See ya' next year! And good luck Houston (though I'd like to see the ChiSox win).

I suppose you're right. Isn't he supposed to get to 3,000 hits next year? If so, he probably will be back. But don't expect Clemens to stick around - especially if you guys win. Then again, we've been saying that about him for the past 4 or 5 years now.

All I can say is, the Yanks had better not steal Mazzone.
So the Oriloes did it, but thats different, going home best friend manager. I can live with that.

Sorry, but I think this is going to be boring. I would bet the series ratings will not be good. I will watch part of it in honor of my friend who LOVES the White Sox and is so excited he can hardly sleep.

But would you be saying that if the Cubs were playing in the WS versus the White Sox? Be happy either team won??

Somehow I doubt that, but much like the Democrats I think Brd is saying it is just about time his guys won something.

Bummed that Mazzone went to Baltimore. Love him.
The White Sox have that "magical, can do do no wrong" thing going on right now.

I am bummed about that as well, but as I added in earlier, I can't fault him, he is going home.
The ChiSox have that look, the same as the BoSox had last year. It seems only a matter of time.
Sometime soon the NL needs to get competitive again.

Ouch. Pettitte might get another chance, but I doubt Clemens will, except maybe in relief, and once they've blown 2 of their big 3, the Astros are really in trouble. The top of the rotation dragged that team to the playoffs. With their teeth.
