...but, DAY-UMM, didja see my 2011 World Series Champions St. Louis Cardinals play?

Wow, what a year, post-season, and World Series that was!

Mary has already decided that David Freese is our future son-in-law. Sarah's going to look good in that MVP Corvette.

There aren't many major league markets left where baseball is more important than football.  By my count, just four: Boston, New York, Cincinatti... and St. Louis.  Congratulations.

and the grandaddy of them all LA.

It is hard to imagine that a nice guy who makes $5mil/year to play baseball is still unattached.

"Grandaddy"?  When my granddaddies were still alive, LA didn't yet have a baseball team.  How many people in that city even know that the California Anaheim Angels now call that city their home.  LA is Lakertown.

I think that it is a generally accepted fact that if Baseball isn't happening in the Northeast in Oct, it isn't happening.

Spectator sport is opium for the masses.

With the possible exception of "professional wrestling", which is a scripted parody of itself, allegorically of politics, and potentially of humanity at large.   :P

Not to date myself but I remember Jim Fregosi.  The earliest "star" of the Angels.  His baseball card went into the spokes of my bike.

to me LA is the most extreme baseball over pro football town .... since they have not had any pro football teams for a while now
