I am from Kansas City, ever since interleague play I have gotten to watch the I-70 series every July. I love the Royals, but I have to admire the whole town of StL and their devotion to baseball.

Saw my first live pro game at KC in '86. I was there visiting family. I still wasn't over the '85 series.

I would say the Cards have reason to argue game 6, except that the Royals won game 7 by, what, 8 runs?

Yeah, but that should have been the last out of the last game.

Granted, they got shelled in game 7. 20 years later, I guess I'm over it.

I saw two Cards' games in the summer of 1999 in Cincinnati. Got to see McGwire hit one out in the second game in about 100 degree heat...

At least your Cards have enough money to hold onto good players...imagine the Royals line up if they had the money to keep Damon and Dye. And their pitching would be bolstered by Byrd, Astacio, and Tom Gordon. In no way world beaters, but they would at least contend for the AL Central year in and year out...oh well.

Disclaimer: this is in not support for revenue sharing or salary cap, just wish an owner with money would buy the Royals.

The Cubs aren't so bad. They're actually kinda cute down there in 3rd or 4th place.
