I know it isn't really over, the WS is still going to happen.

But I hate the day baseball "ends" for me. It means that sports are kind of over. I care a little about the other sports, but nothing like this.

So, now the first thing to look forward to is hot stove, drafts and counting down to pitchers and catchers reporting.

I almost hate ending the post season early MORE for the extra delay more than losing.

On the bright side, I am so incredibly busy right now at work and home that I don't mind freeing up over 4 hours each evening, and getting more than a few hours of sleep.

I grieved and now I'm over it. Now, I think I might go root for the Royals.

While disappointing the Cards made too many mistakes to win the series & the Giants capitalized on them. I'm going to root for our cross-state American League team, but I'm not sure they Royals will be able to beat the Giants.

It's like a new pair of underwear: At first, it's constrictive, but after awhile it becomes a part of you.

I'm a bit relieved that the Cards aren't playing the Royals, because I've been as interested in their success in the postseason so far as I have the Cardinals.

I felt the same way. First off, if the Cards did beat the Giants & lose to the Royals in the WS, Royals fans would be intolerable (even more so than they already are)...and second, this is a good matchup in the WS, two teams that are seemingly having every break go their way, something's gotta give.
