It's the World Series, yet still no baseball thread? Fuck you guys. Fuck the Cardinals. The series is now tied 1-1. After Texas spanks the Cards, next year I'll bump this thread for my rigorous Cubs fandom.
 
I don't mind which team wins, I just hope the series is entertaining and goes the full seven games.
 
I see no reason in the World Series for Texas to not start beaning guys after the 3rd Pujols homerun. They have nothing to lose with that.

STL has won recently, but Texas has never had a title, so I'm pulling for them.
 
I agree. Bean some fucker. This is ridiculous! Texas honestly deserves a title anyway, but the Cards have been winning so much the last few years it's sickening.
 
I watched game 3 last night and it reminded me why I try not to watch baseball. The game seemed to drag on for eternity. What is the point of the snails pace of the game? Is it to boost vendor sales at the ballpark? Provide more time to air commercials? One might as well watch golf on tv.
 
I'm really uninterested in the world series this year. I was pulling for the tigers/brewers, but after they both lost, I cant get myself to watch. I imagine the cards will win, but oh well.
 
how's that working out for ya?
Worst team in pro sports.

Don't care man. No one influenced me to be a Cubs fan. They were the team I chose when I was a little kid despite most of my family being Cardinals fans. We may never win a title, but at least I am loyal. However I think Epstein & Co start changing the tradition on the North side.
 
Holy shit that was the most exciting world series game in recent memory.
 
Hrm. I work in a call center and the nicest people are always the Texans and the Minnesotans. The absolute assholes live in NY/NJ, California, and for some reason Tennessee spawns some angry, angry people.
 
That was a terribly played baseball game last night. I suppose if awful defense and bizarre managerial choices make for exciting baseball, so be it. Still, bad, bad baseball. It looked like spring training.
 
For the first 6 innings, sure it was sloppy. But after that I guess you forgot about the Cardinals coming back from 2-run deficits in the 9th and 10th, which no team has ever done before, and David Freese hitting a walk-off home run.
