emotion is going to be playing an enormous part this game (as if it being a W.S. game isn't enough). cardinal nation is going to behind their team even more so since rogers is a washed up cheat and we will be out for revenge. Carp regains his form and takes it to these overrated tigers. there is no way robertson is going to come into our house and rattle our team...NOT TODAY!!!
cards 5 tigers 2...take it to the bank.

while I'm neither a cards or tigers fan, frankly I'm tired of hearing about Rogers...been listening to radio and tv for the past 2 days and pitcher after pitcher and manager is on saying he's not the only one doing it, there was no funky ball movement, so what's the friggin deal. The cards pitching staff is 100% clean then?? I guess these hall of fame pitchers coming out saying it's been there, is there and will continue to be there are talking about every other team other than the cards right?
on a side note, would love to play the ML tigers and alt run line but just can't do it....no action tonight in baseball....just hockey.

until you can put something on the cards pitchers, that's exactly what i'm saying. if these hall of fame pitchers are so ademant about others cheating, where's the proof??? bottom line, the tigers are overrated and have been since the beginning of the season. sure they put together a few wins and did look dominating at times, but their inexperience was very evident when they stalled after the allstar break. not to mention their true colors shined through when they were swept by the worst team in baseball (k.c. royals) when they had a chance to lock up first place in the AL central.
i'm sure you're sick of hearing the talk of rogers...i'm sick of knowing we gave game 2 away b/c of a cheating, lying old fuck who can't pitch with his own skills and must rely on doctoring the ball. just goes to show you why this guy can't land on a team and stick for more than a few years...the guys played for every f'ckin' major league team out there.
overated?? Your team sneaks into the playoffs from an 83 win year and the Tigers are overrated....OK, whatever homer. Like I said, I'm neither a detriot or SL fan, fact is I lived in Colorado for most of my life so I'm a Broncos, Nuggets, Rockies and Avs fan regardless of where I live and have no interest in either of the 2 teams winning the series - I'll bet on the team I feel will win if I have a good read but other than that I could care less so there's absolutely no "homer" feelings coming out of me. Reason I'm sick of all the whining about Rogers is the FACT that the majority of ML pitchers including your beloved Cards are using SOME SORT of foreign substance to aid their grip on the ball. MLB managers, hall of fame pitchers come on radio and tv and blatantly admit it's used in the past, used right now and will continue to be used....and they're lying?? Is that what you think?? If so the I suppose Jose was lying about all the guys taking steriods in his book too huh? Publicity stunt right?? LaRussa didn't say shit because it would make him a biggot....being that HIS OWN guys are not 100% clean. If you think they are then perhaps you should go to the game tonight and sniff all the pitchers hands.....along with whatever else you've been sniffing.Chong said:

Wow - Tigers are overrated and Rogers is a cheat...I'm not a fan of either the Tigers or the Cards but I can say that winning eight in a row versus the Yanks and the A's in the playoffs is pretty impressive. Rogers pitched pretty well in the second through eighth innings after he cleaned off whatever was on his hand. People need to stop talking about this non-issue IMHO.
