Cardinals/Astros series

[Davestone]

John,i challenge you to a rousing paragraph about how much we love and admire the opposing team here in the mudbox,100 words, if our respective team loses! Go Cards/Go Cards/ Go Cards---Redbirds rule! :tongue: :D

Yeah, it's hard for the 'Stros to compete with a team of that caliber when they keep running Triple A pitchers out there. I was wondering if I was the only one watching.

Like I said...5-4

No, 6-4

[tilesnake]

Baseball is about as amusing as watching rock erode.. :tongue:

[John Bridge]

To tell you the truth, I'm accustomed to defeat. I'm not a defeatist; that's just how it is. The Stros remind me a lot of the old Houston Oilers. They've been at it a long time and have never made it to the World Serious. Came close once years ago, but let the stinkin' Mets beat them out. ;)

[Raymond S]

Yeah, what a series that was. How disappointing.Very dramatic, though. What about the Phillies series in 80? Thought they had that one, too.

[Davestone]

Yeah, but the Cards had their star pitcher in his 20's have a fatal heart attack,a few years ago,my cardiac Cards are goin all the way,finally! :)

Why is it called the "world series" if only American Teams (and a couple from Canada) compete?

[John Bridge]

Westie,

You know how obnoxious Americans are. At the time the series was inaugurated, we didn't even let Canadians in. We just figured this was our little world down here. ;)

Plain answer: I don't know. :D

[Westie]

Thats what I though John but us Canadians are too polite to say that about those down south. With oil above $54 a barrel we have to be nice to you, we don't want Bush claiming we have WMD and have him try to come up here to liberate us from Ralph Klein. :stick:

[Davestone]

O.K that tears it, i'm gonna go pour out the rest of my Canada Dry ginger ale! :)

[John Bridge]

Come to think of it, we haven't tried to liberate Canada in over a century now. Maybe it's time. ;)

Question: If we do liberate you do we have to take the Northwest Territory and all the rest of the Arctic? :D

[jjwq8]

Westie......it's called the world series cos the world, his wife and God's uncle Jack could give a rats patootee about the outcome :nod:

Rounders......with cleats..............HAH! :D

John : don't you remember what happened last time you tried that? We would hate to have to burn down the White house again. You can have Quebec though. :crazy:
