Cards' batting has stayed cold as the Giants have hit their stride. One last chance tonight for both teams in a winner take all game. As far as the World Series, 2010 and 2011 both went to the National League team. The Tigers have some good pitchers and a few good hitters. Either National League team could beat them but, like life, anything can happen over the course of a 7 game series.....

Daddy wears Hanes ComfortSoft Knit Boxers or nothing at all.

After a lot of thought, mine is Jack from Will & Grace. He made being campy and effeminate funny and non-threatening which I think taught a lot of people a little about acceptance. Someone mentioned Paul Lynde, he too did it, but many people were clueless at the time as to his orientation and didn't really learn acceptance. They just laughed.

The Cards never quit and scrap until the last out. Hopefully with Carp on the mound they will settle down and bear down and put this series away today!

The Giants are good and now we must go back to San Francisco. After the above mentioned inning, the Cards seemed to lose their momentum and, the dynamics of the game shifted markedly.

Cards were cold and let a golden opportunity get by them. Back to CA on Sunday.

Except for the batters!

St. Louis is crazy.....about their Redbirds! There will be a sea of RED all around town today in their honor. After the Giants came back and won three in a row in Cincinnati in the divisional series, (and broke their fans hearts) you can never count them out as long as they have a chance. But we broke a lot of hearts in DC when we spotted the Nationals a six run lead and then came back and won the deciding game 5. So I expect a lot of drama tonight, because it ain't over 'til it's over just as we proved last year in game 6 of the World Series against the Rangers. I also agree with Krista, barring some major unexpected injuries, it looks like 'Bama all the way in college football.

Cards win! Lead best of seven series, three games to one! They can close it out tomorrow night in St. Louis. If they do, the city will GO CRAZY!

Tigers win in a sweeeeep! Now we need the Cards to win a couple more! They are off to a good start tonight!

The Tigers are one win away from winning the ALCS. Verlander did win the other night. Last night's rainout also works in Detroit's favor as Sabathia won't be available for any necessary game 7. In the National League, my Cards are up 2 games to 1 and need two more. If we could wrap it up in St. Louis today and tomorrow, the town will GO CRAZY!

I think sdaddy got it right in his observations and said them before I got around to it. So CJ, I hope you have thought up a suitably incredibly shocking and horribly painful slow demise for the Sea Witch. I also hope you manage to provide a few problems for Gray and company as well as the cartel. Just wishing & hoping!

Well Carp had his troubles and the Giants were primed and ready to pounce. The NLCS is even at a game a piece. The ALCS game 3 is at 8 pm Eastern US time zone tonight and is in Detroit with the Tigers up already having won the first two of the best of seven. Verlander is scheduled to pitch and so I wouldn't bet against Detroit tonight.

We know that at least one of the boats is rigged to blow. The antenna was rigged to the big antenna, but is that the one they took down and then put up without connecting it on the other boat. Please let it be so.... While the chapter end was not a cliff hanger, the whole remaining story is as we wait to see how it ends and whether justice is cruelly and righteously served on the miscreants from the sea witch on down.

NO hockey for the Blues, the season is slowly being cancelled due to labor contract negotiations. But the BASEBALL Cardinals are still flying in the Middle of October! Post-Season playoffs. Gotta love 'em!

Happy Birthday!

I beg at 7:50 am and Mark posted at 8:03. Who says wishes are never answered? Conway as ship's master was a known probable problem and has indeed caused enough mischief. Granger has had enough and is determined to get to the bottom of things. My day can only get better if the Cards win again tonight!

Mr. Conway as the stool of Sir Tobias has caused enough trouble already and Sir George has had enough. I suspect he will get to the bottom of things thanks in part to Winkler. Good job and thanks!

Cards looked good against the Giants in AT&T Park with both Freese and Beltran homering in a park which is not homer friendly on Sunday. Hopefully, Carpenter will have a good outing today! Today is a travel day for the ALCS.

I've edited the above post for the past 2 weeks. Time to start a new one. Cards play again tonight in "the city" and are up 1-0 I was so hoping for a chapter either here or in CAP over the weekend. Thank heavens the CARDS are providing some distraction as my withdrawal is becoming pronounceddddddddddddddddddddd.

The Yanks losing Jeter is going to hurt their chances. That the Tigers gave up 4 runs in the 9th and yet were able to hold on and come back and win shows some determination as well. The game last night was like a National League game. Tonight's matchup should be exciting.

My biggest fear is that the planet's population is increasing at an unsustainable pace and that my granddaughter will live to see real privation on a global scale.

The setting is awesome and I have visited it but never been there for a concert. Here is the wikipedia link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Rocks_Amphitheatre

Alabama took care of Mizzou, much to my chagrin. The Cards win last night was something of a continuation of their play in October of 2011. Conner's remarks about Daniel Descalso and Pete Kozma are right on. The bottom of the batting order sure contributed! The Cards had to scratch and chip all the way after spotting the Nationals a 6 run lead. With the turnover in personnel including the retirement of La Russa, Pujols going for California gold and then the injuries with Chris Carpentar, Lance Berkman and Furcal going down it was a tough season. The Cardinals took advantage of the expanded wild card and went on to beat the Nationals who had the best record during the regular season. The NLCS will be tough as I expect the Giants have as much momentum as the Cards and their Park has always given the Cards some trouble. If I had my druthers, for the 2012 World Series I'd of course like to see the Card vs. Yankees with the Cards winning in 7

Happy Birthday!
