Its been a terrific post-season for baseball fans, with plenty of nail-biting playoff games that sometimes went unexpectedly to the team you never imagined. This brings out the best of baseball. For Cardinal fans, its been the most improbably run we have seen in a long time. The numbness from sitting in the stands of the fourth game of the 2004 World Series watching the Red Soxs sweep the Cards, has finally worn off. Its a new day, and the Cardinals are finally World Champions again!!!
This year I wasn’t able to make it to St. Louis for game since I live in Dallas, TX, so I have been glued to the TV cheering them on, which pales in comparison with the adrenaline rush of standing with 40K other Redbirds fans in Busch Stadium. I’ve tried to watch the game at local bars in Dallas, but it doesn’t seem like any of the bars realize its the post season, which is why I rarely saw another Cardinals fan nearby. This year, I plan to change that. I’ve created a group on Jambo for St. Louis Cardinals fans to discover when other fans are nearby, so we never miss a chance to connect with other fans that are nearby, wherever we happen to be. We can meet up, chat about our favorite team, and maybe make plans to watch the next game together. Can you say Repeat?
