Oh man oh man oh man! What a game. I told everyone I wasn't going to watch, but I lied... How could I not? I didn't join in till the big inning with Pujol's double and Rolen's homer, I know when to join the game. I'm so psyched!

I didn't get to enjoy the Whitey ball of the 80s where the cards won in 82 and went back in 85 and 87. But I don't remem
