Looks like my Cards won't replace the '64 Phillies as epitome of chokesters blowing a big lead in the last 2 weeks of the season. Unbelievable that the Cards have now had THREE losing streaks of 7+ games, and have remained in 1st through each streak! The first two streaks were 8 games, and I believe if they'd lost the 8th one this time, that woulda been all she wrote. But Albert Pujols strapped the slumping team on his back once more, and came through with a clutch homer late in that game. He hit another homer yesterday to help them win again. After Spiezo's clutch pinch hit, 3-run triple led them to win today, their magic # is 1. Pujols will be the Ruth of his lifetime by the time he's done!
My fantasy team has gone bad the past 3 days after I'd gotten back in 1st in my 12-team league, but it doesn't seem to matter near as much as the Cards pulling out of their tailspin. That's why it's called fantasy--doesn't compare to reality!

Steve, I think you know growing up in central Illinois, that the Cubs rule. This will be their year, I feel it in my heart, no Steve Bartman. Growing up a Cub fan has probably stunted my growth and I now find myself in the eternal basement of baseball cities...Kansas City. Hope you are doing well.
