i guess it's up to me to make all the Cardinals threads

[chupe666]

it's really red here. some AM talk host was bitching about how the Today show on NBC didn't say a damn thing about the game for the first hour today, but they were still talking about the boston/ny game.

a bunch of people from work got standing room tickets yesterday for like $45 and went after that big work-sponsored drunken fest. i can't believe they actually made it to work today.

lame, it would be so much better if MA could be rockin' sockin' Texas.

sorry, Eric.

W/E Mr. Man

i hate when people trash talk, but you're about to bring it out of me.

 

[mindspell]

I thought about starting a "Chupe vs Board" thread this morning but decided against it.

I am supporting Chupe on this one...

 

[chupe666]

yeah, i do feel a bit outnumbered here. living in chicago for like 9 yrs made me immune to cardinals fanaticism though. i don't really care, unless they give us a day off work to watch the game.

one of jodi's friend's wedding is tomorrow and the guy used to play Fredbird (the cardinals mascot) and he already told her if they make it to the world series he's having a TV brought in for their wedding reception. Game 1 starts at 6:30pm central time tomorrow, so that'll be a good test for their marriage.

 

[xfer]

I would never EVER allow that.

I will have to throw my support the Cardinals way because I believe that the Curse of the Bambino is something baseball needs to have. You just can't lose tradition like that.

 

[FuSoYa]

Why does anyone ever need to watch Game 1?

 

[xfer]

I dunno but game-watching monkeys are descending on my house tomorrow and ruining my Indian dinner.

 

[FuSoYa]

but Thanksgiving isn't for another month

 

[xfer]

hahaha

 

[avi]

good one!

 

[chupe666]

monkeys are festive. are they face painters?

 

[lizard]

I actually have always liked the Cardinals (living north of Chicago built up my healthy hatred of the Cubs, their arch rivals), if they were playing anyone but Boston, I'd be behind them.

 

[azal]

lets go mets go?

 

[Josh Seipp]

dudes

game one was INTENSE. great baseball all-around.

go sox!

 

[chupe666]

game two was not so much intense.

i feel i must dutifully point out the cards have lost all but one of their playoff road games and won all their home games (1-6 road and 6-0 @ home).

so now that i said that, they will be beaten at home tomorrow. you heard it here first.

 

[lizard]

the creepiest thing was when they described how schilling's fucked up tendon has to be SEWED to some part of his ankle to keep from flopping around but they don't know if he'll be able to pitch another game BECAUSE HE HAS ALMOST NO MORE AVAILABLE SEWABLE FLESH!!!

 

[Josh Seipp]

yeah I'm very interested to see what happens. They've been playing about twice as well at home these days so it should be another intense game!

I liked the shots of Schilling praying with the cross to his forehead, I never would have guessed that he was a religious guy.
