It's not like we haven't been on the other side. The 2004-5 Cardinals won 205 games in the regular season and won 0 WS games. They also didn't have HFA to Boston in '04 despite the Red Sox being a WC team.

We were the best team in MLB in 2004. Almost a univeral opinion. To get squnked like we did was a big punch to the gut that still bears a mark on my basball soul. Those posters telling us we can;t complain ever again because we went to 3 World Series inb 7 years and won 2 dont really comprend how much losses like 85/87/04 drug us down as fans.
