You could be right...I just hope the weather doesn't throw a kink in your schedule.

Quote by Darth: Actually, the teams also played a world series in 1934 (we lost). I believe Roscoe36 was a bat boy for the Tigers in that one.

Luckily, Darth, the teams are the same but I am 'pretty sure' the players will not be. !!

But seriously, the Tigers and Cards played in '68, as everybody know, but that is only two years after I came to MI from OH to live.

It is not exactly, but it is nearly the same amount of time from '34 to '68 as from '68 to '06. I hope it is not that long before the Tigers get back into the series next time.

I don't think anyone can deny that weather has put a damper on 'The Fall Classic' this year. The introduction of the wildcard series has made the season too long for those in northern climes.

To me...somethings gotta give. Either they start the season a week or two earlier, when things don't matter as much...or they cut the regular season by 10-12 games...or they schedule more doubleheaders.

Unfortunately, none of my scenarios mesh with the marketing & $ signs to those in charge. Instead, we fans are relegated to watching the most important games of the season played in the wet and cold.

Yeah...I know...both teams have to play under the same conditions. IMO...those conditions have become too extreme for the players and the fans in a sport that is supposed to be a summer pastime.

83 win Cards are grinding us up!
Dang young team wilting under the pressure. Too much Nefi influencing the impressionable Inge.

it's so sad to see this... i really really like these guys

As a follow up to my last post, I'm watching Leyland in the 2nd inning with a couple heaters blowing in the dugout in the background.

Does he even use an ash tray?

CASEY!!!!

Cards crackin' !!!
