The St. Louis Cardinals Are World Series Champions: Time to Sound Off

Last night was not a dream—the Cardinals won the World Series. Share your thoughts and comments here!

It's entirely likely that St. Louis—and for that matter St. Charles County—didn't get much last night. 

In a Game 7 for the ages, the St. Louis Cardinals claimed the 11th World Series in franchise history. The Redbirds beat the Texas Rangers 6-2 and Cardinals' fan across the country erupted. 

The Cardinals were dead in the water heading into September. At one point, the Cards were 10.5 games behind the Atlanta Braves for a playoff spot. Incredibly, the team made the postseason on the last day of the regular season.

After that, the Cards beat the prohibitive National League favorite Philadelphia in five games. The Cards then dispatched the rival Milwaukee Brewers in six games to win the National League crown. After that, the Texas Rangers were waiting. 

The Cardinals nearly lost the series. Twice. Two times in Game 6 the Cardinals were one strike away from losing it all. The team came back and now has 11 World Series titles.
