Let's Go Cardinals

Two weeks ago, the Cardinals were fighting for the NL Wild Card, and tonight, they are preparing for the start of the NLCS.  What a game that Chris Carpenter threw last night.  Philly was no doubt the better team, but that is what is so great and unpredictable about baseball in October.

This is going to be quite the week in our flat in London.  As I am sure that you have realised, it is my Cardinals battling against Ann's Brewers.  Ann didn't even realise that teams played baseball in October, well, that is until she met me in 2006(Cardinals = World Series Champions).  The last time that the Brewers and the Cardinals faced each other in the playoffs was in 1982 when the Brewers were actually an AL team and they lost to the Cardinals in the World Series.  The past is the past, however, and I should not dwell on that, especially if these words were to come back and bite me.  I am really excited about the week though, even if this blog does ensure my sleeping spot on the couch!!!!  I am a good sport though, so I want to wish my wife and her Brewers good luck.  I am pretty sure that God bleeds red though, so Go Birds!!!!

Cheers
Cardinal Fan in London
