George,

I was actually pulling for a Cards-Cubs NL series this year, and I am still hoping the White Sox make it to the World Series (to get beat by the Cards *s*).

>Do you have any concept of the suffering I've been through? I don't think so. During my lifetime there's been only one trip to the World Series (1959). OK, with two teams, that's 97 + 88 combined seasons without winning the World Series.
