Just got home from celebrating in the wake of Game 6. Holy fucking moses what a game. Down to our last strike -- twice -- and came back to win on a walk off homer. People literally did not want to leave the stadium after that game, no joke. Absolutely insane. I happened to be at Game 5 in 2006 when the Cards clinched the WS, and were it not for that game, this would unquestionably be the highlight of my sports-watching career.

Had about 4 "last beers" after the 7th. This is the best hangover ever. Holy crap what a great game!!! So many story lines. I still can't believe Berkman "Cardinal Killer" is on our team, lol. The guy has single-handedly ruined so many Cards games for me throughout the years when he was with the Stros, now he's one of my favorite players on the team, continuing to do what he's always done- crush it in the clutch. That guy is a winner. If we win it all Freese is easily the MVP, kid has been getting big hit after big hit after big hit all throughout the playoffs. You going to the game tonight Toasty?

Wasn't able to scare up tickets to the game itself, but went and watched it at a bar right next door, and it was the next best thing. The wild thing was that because of the TV delay, we'd hear the fireworks for homers, etc. before we saw it on TV, so everyone knew when to get ready to celebrate. What an incredible run, I'm still just fucking brimming!
