Default Re: ***The OFFICIAL Cardinals vs. Astros NLCS Thread***

I feel sick. Utterly, physically sick.

I was at the game tonight and I can't describe the feeling of joy and anticipation with two outs in the 9th, and as soon as the ball touched Pujol's bat it was like "Oh my god this can't be happening". It was the most disgusting moment i've ever witnessed in sports.

I most definitely have not lost faith in our team and I still believe we will win. However I am very worried right now. The wait until wednesday's game is going to feel like a month.

Lidge sounded positive and said all the right things in his post-game interview, but I am still very worried that this might affect him psychologically. Game winning homers in situations like this have been known to destroy closers. I believe Lidge has enough fortitude to not let this affect him, but then again, I still can't believe he got touched up like this.
