The whole world is on the Cards. Not good.

Never seen such a lopsided opinion on a game all year, and its most peoples top play. I hope we all come out on top with this one.

Line has hardly budged at Pinny(-138 to -139), while Bodog has it up to -150...hmmm

Thats Pinnys way of saying "please take St Louis" I hope they are wrong on this one.

Still going the Cards way even though the line has moved up at this book!!!

Part of that is that the Reds just got swept by the Brewers. Public perception of the Brewers is still as an "awful" team. Brewers were my pick for 3rd place in the NL Central at the beginning of the season. Surprise team, imo.

Also, St Louis lost 2 close games in a row to the Braves. People usually jump on teams like STL, Bos and NYY after they lose 2 straight. "No way they lose 3 straight" type thing
