It doesn't happen very often no matter where you live. This year the Cardinal's season was good but nothing stellar to speak about. But something happened near the end of the season. The team found themselves winning and winning a lot! Average players became good and the good players become great. Nothing was impossible.
Our city, the city of St. Louis, had been hit pretty hard by the economy. We just needed something to rally around. Winning the World Series was unexpected but savored so much more. No one here takes it for granted. We feel blessed and as brought everyone together. It is quite magical! |
