I'd like to state for the record that I
glowbelly. The fact that someone, ANYONE, on this board besides myself, let alone a woman (it's hard enough to find 'em on the intarweb, let alone talking about sports), will speak about baseball with passion and intelligence, is a nice feeling.
The argument for the payroll could go either way, but, most of the time, it is the really big spenders that get to the big prize. And I love when the big spenders lose to the underdogs. While the BoSox may not be considered underdogs under ordinary circumstances, they are by virtue of being down 3-0 and coming back to beat the shit out of the Yankees. In game 7. At Yankee Stadium.
Go Cardinals, Go Sox. The WS is gonna be a hell of a showdown.
