World Series 08

It's a little hard for a Cardinals fan to root for the Phillies in the World Series. I grew up in the 1950s when the Cards and Phillies always seemed to be racing for fourth place in the National League (there were only eight teams in each league then), so the Phillies were hardly the Good Guys, but at least they're National League instead of the Designated Hitter League. The Phillies seemed to win in spite of themselves; it was terribly frustrating seeing all the runners stranded in scoring position, game after game. But it's over and we have to settle for sports with time limits for a few months until baseball comes around again...
