so...

I guess yesterday wasn't a "must win" after all LMAO

It's good to see consistency, though.

The sky is always falling on ChiefsPlanet =)

Found the live thread where the Pujols bomb happened.

Great moment for Cardinals fans. My roommate still has that .jpg as his Facebook picture.

But Lidge had his redemption so 'meh'...would've been cooler if it ruined the "best closer in the game" at that time...

like some Mitch Williams shit or something

Ugh. :(

That game sucked last night. With all of those errors, we didn't deserve to win. Pathetic. :shake:

Hoping we can pull off a miracle tomorrow with Marcum to at least force another Gallardo-Carpenter showdown. If that happens, then at least I'll feel good that whichever team comes out on top in that pitching dual will deserve to move on.

I wasn't on the sky is falling bandwagon. We have already exceeded my wildest expectations.

We haven't had a pitcher go beyond 5 innings in this series. Our bullpen sucked for most of the year. There is something "magical" going on with this team.

We are playimg with way beyond house money. It took the 5th biggest comeback to even make it into the playoffs. Every year some team gets hot in the playoffs and wins games that they shouldn't, at least on paper.

We just need to enjoy the ride.

One of my favorite parts of that clip is when they pan to the Aastros dugout and you see Petitte saying, "Oh my God."

Wish I could find that.

What the hell. I'll get it for you today.

A lot of this is semantics. Technically, nothing is a must win but an elimination game, but eliminating the chance of going back to the new homer dome is damned important.

I said after losing game 4 our odds of winning the series went from 95 with a win to 30 after that loss. Last night's win knocked it up to about 60:40 for us.

I just hope they take care of business tomorrow. IF we advance, I'd much rather have Carpenter starting game 1.

Certainly wasn't a sky is falling moment, but it kept Milwaukee alive.

I think Tony is looking upon the schedule and being careful with keeping starters in, especially now with Garcia since he folded in game 1. He's found the bullpen rotation that has worked, now if they can only hold up.

It would be nice like the old days to have him in 1, 4, and 7, but alas these bunch of overpaid nancies can't handle it. Not a knock on Carp as pitchers have an ERA over 6 with only 3 days rest in the last couple of years.

You must have an active YouTube account to view this, and you must be logged in. Please don't share this, I just wanted it for the Cards fans on here to reminisce. The "reaction" video, including Pettite's "Oh my God", is coming shortly.

I'm logged in, and it still says it's private and I can't watch.

I've repped you my username if you need to put it on a list.

Thanks for doing this.

I can't watch either of them, either.

Why would this be private? Is there pr0n attached at the end or something?

Just PM me your YouTube info.

OTW, You should be available to watch.
Frazod, just PM me your contact info.

It's private because MLB takes down all content on YouTube. It's literally impossible to find anything.

I repped you my youtube username, would love to watch these.

Everyone who messaged or repped me should be able to see it now.

We need to get some positive karma going for tommorrows game.

What should be posted in the opening post to promote some good karma?

Happy Flight with "Underdog" flying wearing a photoshopped road jersey.

You volunteering to photoshop the pic?

Hopefully we see this tomorrow.

What say you Card fans? Hamas posted some good pics, want one of those, speak up. Vachief had a good idea.

It's totally the groups choice, not mine.

I'm afraid we're going to lose two straight in Milwaukee. We blew our chance to wrap up the series in Game 4.

Is anyone else watching the Tigers have a bigger meltdown than the Brewers did last night?

Hope like hell that happens. Hate the fukn tards.

So you thought it would be a good idea to come in here take a shit and leave?

Congratulations!



Where is GoChiefs?

He said the Rangers would advance to the World Series!

Awesome!

Here is to a Texans/Cardinals series.

Holy Shit....... GoChiefs vs. Hamas smackdown :rockon:

I said it before, but I hope to Christ we take care of business tomorrow night. I don't think the Cardinals would have much of a chance against Texas, but I don't think they'd have any chance at all unless Carp starts the first game.

I say this guy is on to something. But me thinks that the poster believes the Texas will steam roil the Cardinals in 4 games. :hmmm:

Most people said the Cards didn't have a chance against the Phillies, though. It's baseball playoffs, either team can easily win.

Just like Detroit in 06

Cart before the horse talk but yeah, Texas is defintely the team to beat on paper and on the field. It looks like its their year. But then again, last year appeared to be Philly's year.;)

Not really. I used words like "hope" and "would." I'm well aware that this could all grind to a halt with a game 7 loss.

"Tigers in 3".

I disagree. The Tigers played pretty poorly in that series and still played them tough. They brought it to six no playing well with two extra-inning games. The Rangers rotation has been iffy at best. Their bullpen has been awesome, but so has STL.

I think home field being NL is going to maybe even things out some.

Rangers lose a bat out the gate playing in the NL park and IF the Cards can get to the WS, it gets Craig, Freese, Berkman, Pujols and Holliday all in the line up in their ballpark.

That may help equalize the offense some.

Oh noes! . . . I didn't know that... LOL

Go Cards!

Go Rangers!

Getting close to game time. Last chance to voe on what goes in the opening post.

Really really really hope we win tonight. Want none of game 7 in Milw.

Torty has my vote. For the most obvious reason.

Cardinals:
Furcal, SS
Jay, CF
Pujols, 1B
Berkman, RF
Holliday, LF
Freese, 3B
Molina, C
Punto, 2B
Jackson, P


Brewers:
Hart, RF
Morgan, CF
Braun, LF
Fielder, 1B
Weeks, 2B
Hairston, 3B
Betancourt, SS
Lucroy, C
Marcum, P

Haven't been this nervous before a game since Game 7 of the 2006 NLCS.

The Brewers manager sticking with Weeks and Marcum and going with tony Plush bites him in the ass he will be run out of town on a rail.

I feel ya there. I don't wanna be all doom and gloom, but IMO this is damn near must win. I know Carp is going in game 7 but this isn't the Phils and in a game 7 anything can hapen.

I like all those moves on paper.

Still the best BB game I have ever watched. Intense shit.

I like Punto at 2B too.

Most definitely.

Most TLR line ups make me scratch my head, yell WTF!!! But I agree with this one. :thumb:

I def. think Punto needs to play 2nd base. I just wish he would get a few hits.

**** Beast Mode.

I'll take him over Theriot any day.

Saw Shu taking batting practice on the MLB ball park cam. Bet he starts if we make it to the World series.

I just wish we could morph Punto and Theriot into one 2b.

No, Roenicke is a good manager.

Just a bit inexperience right now.

hopefully we only need to make it through 2012 and by 2013 one of our infield prospects will be ready.

And the worst SS in MLB makes another defensive play he'd accomplish about 2/100 times.

Here we go. Come on Mang!

Reminds me of a Larussa type move of "sticking by his guys".

Just win it and send Zach back to his mother's boozum...

He's from the Sciosia school of baseball.

Why leave a base open and risk taking the bat out of Albert's hands?

Weeks evens up the great play chit for Yuni.

I am assuming that was supposed to be a hit and run. Otherwise it makes no sense.

I think Marcum has thrown two legit strikes this entire inning.

Nice polish on LaCroy's nails. Looks like a French Manicure.

Marcum can't throw strikes. Just put the bat on your shoulder, Berk.

**** yes!!

Nice throw to third, Tony Flush

ROFL ROFL

Nice start! :rockon:

Thats what I'm talking about babey

Marcum looks toast at this point in the season.

Why is he throwing it to third? Its the first inning. If this is the Brewers mindset then this game isn't going to last long.

Come on Matt. Lets unload on this thing.

What an awful throw by Morgan.
