Neifi Perez might hit 15 singles in the 2006 World Series, and be named the 2006 World Series Most Valuable Singles-Hitting MoFo.

This is why the Cards are a force to be reckoned with.

I would watch for Yadier Molina to advance to a level of baseball no-one thought possible. Much like Joe Crede did last year.

Jeff Weaver is a great pitcher that hitters don't have a feel for, yet.

Scott Rolen is declining. It is a good thing he got his errors out of the way last night. He will also be huge.

Jim Edmonds should also go out with a bang.

Remember Pujols blast during the NLCS last year? When he hits one of those in the World Series-- There won't be any looking back.

Cardinals in Seven.

Yes! Because Detroit fans are all criminals, and Detroit is a shithole!

Tigs in 5.

Prove me wrong children, prove me wrong.

I think Neifi Perez could be baseball's equivalent of Ringo Starr.

Jeff Weaver is ass. He is ass. Batters have been having a feel for Jeff Weaver for years. He's been felt and violated and had his bad touch area explored vigorously in both leagues.

The Tigers are better at every position with the exception of first base. And that dude on first is playing hurt.

The Tigers rotation is superior with the exception of Chris Carpenter. Anyone else in that Cardinals rotation would have been DFA'd, traded, or sent to AAA if they were part of the Tigers.

The Tigers bullpen is superior. Half of those motherfuckers would close on the Cardinals.

Neifi Perez has had four ABs since the playoffs began. He is a nonfactor. David Eckstein will be taking many, many ABs, however.

The Cards defense is pretty good, but the Tigers are better.

The Tigers are a better team in every aspect of the game.

The Cardinals are one of the worst teams to ever play in a World Series.

The Tigers should consider their team a Total Fucking Failure if St. Louis manages to take two games, much less win the WS.

Wrong again.
Anthony Reyes to start the World Series.

I'm not alone.

If you'd like to contradict anything I have declared up there, you would be high.

This WS is about as lopsided as any in the history of the game. The Cards are a feeble team.

Name a Game One World Series starter worse than Anthony Reyes. One.

The Cards rotation blows.

Is Eric Byrnes listening to his iPod or something?

I'm right here, Eric. You don't have to yell.

Excellent beginning to Total Fucking Failure.

Doesn't appear that way at this moment, doude.
