I feel like a Red Sox fan

[Brosnan2715]

Considering that I'm 19, I've never been able to witness a Cardinals World Series Championship. The best feeling I had as a Cardinals fan was last year when they won the pennant. That was quickly demolished when they failed to win one game in the World Series. They get so close, yet crumble before the end. I've grown to hate the playoffs.

It's also very sad to see Busch go out like this, but I'm glad people got their last chance to say goodbye tonight.

We deserve better in the playoffs, Cardinals fans.

On to next year. (I'm tired of saying that)

Give me a fucking break.

I'm tired of seeing this happen each year.
It's terrible that it's been so long for these fans.

I feel like a Braves fan, personally. Except I go to games.

I'm only 18. There were Red Sox fans who went their entire lives without seeing a championship.

[Brosnan2715]

I think it's pretty pathetic to call other Cardinals fans crybabies or any other names when expressing their emotion at another loss to a Wild Card team.

Show some class.

I'll show some class when you show some perspective.

In the meantime, lighten up. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif[/img]

I won't see another Cardinals game in 5 months. I'll lighten up in a few days. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif[/img]

18 years vs 86 years.

Yea, I see the comparison.

Try to keep in mind that the World Series is now between two teams that haven't been there in 46 years (Sox), and their entire 42 year history (Astros).

Be pissed at teams like Arizona and Florida, teams that manage to win a Series or two in a decade or so of play.

I'm just talking about my lifetime. Many of you were able to witness the 1982 World Series. I was not. I don't know the feeling to see my favorite team win the World Series. I hope I can next year.

23 yrs old. Came into the world with a WS win. I almost feel like its my birthright to see them win it every year. 1982 is becoming a distant memory. But it sure beats not winning one since 1908.

Agreed. And their fans didn't careless about them before and after those wins.

[MsFunkay]

better yet, don't be bitter, just be happy you have another day to enjoy your life. that even when your team loses, you can still say "there's always next year". it may be tough right now, but give it a few wks and you'll be watching or reading the news and realize how lucky you are.

If you feel sorry, buy a silver membership.

That should cheer you right up.

I can attest to that. I've never been happier.
