>You and that idiot Denkinger can both go straight to hell.
Are all the fans in St.Louis like this or is there someone who is a Cards' fan
that has a bit of class? I think this was the guy who was blabbering about
the American league being the "minor" league. I don't think that after this
response that there is any doubt who is minor league.
By the way, Billy Williams a National league umpire, said that he was
personally ashamed by the Cardinal's behavior during the series.

(flame on) Are all the people at DEC like this, or does everyone there think that all Cardinals fans live in St. Louis? Ok, now look closely at the article of the guy who made the Denkinger comment. I believe it came from some guy at the University of Illinois. *NOT ST. LOUIS* Wow. Then maybe there are Cardinal fans elsewhere besides St. Louis then? See, you learn something new every day. Yep, and just because one fan makes a remark that you don't like (and that may not be appropriate), the NL is a minor league, right? Come on. Get off of it. And the remark about 'a bit of class'? Yeah, right. (flame off) Btw, I think the Denkinger thing has been worn out. Onward! Craig (my apologies to DEC, but I had to make a point.

I'm not a Cardinal fan. I also thought they acted without class. Sure, Denkinger blew the call, but that's baseball. (He certainly didn't cause Clark to misplay Balboni's foul pop!) My true feelings are that the leagues are quite balanced, although there is some discrepancy between East and West in both leagues (oops, here we go again), and after hearing all year long about the AL East being {drum roll please!} "baseball's toughest division", I felt like having a little fun. Sorry that you AL'ers took it so seriously. Roy P.S. Congats to K.C. Seems to me that IS why they keep score!
