What a game! From the 8th inning on my wife kept switching channels in disgust but even tough there are 50000 stations or whatever it is "there is nothing else on" an she would put the game back on. Then she would sit there and huff and puff and wince and growl when things went bad and scream when they finally scored the runs. Scream louder when they couldn't put them away. Loudly proclaim that it was over, that StL couldn't come back from a 2 run deficit. After they won she told if the game is replayed on the MLB channel today she is going to burn it on a dvd. She was almost as entertaining as the game was.

Tony La Russa retired as manager of the St. Louis Cardinals on Monday, three days after winning a dramatic, seven-game World Series against the Texas Rangers.

"I think this just feels like it's time to end it," the 67-year-old La Russa said at a news conference at Busch Stadium.

The World Series win over Texas was the third of La Russa's 33-year career. The manager guided the Cardinals to the championship despite being 10½ games behind Atlanta on Aug. 25 for the final playoff spot in the National League.

La Russa retires third on the all-time wins list, 35 behind second-place John McGraw. In addition to this season, he won championships in Oakland in 1989 and St. Louis in 2006. He is the first manager to retire immediately after his club won the World Series.

    beast (21-Jan) : Also in college football, is a bye week a good or bad thing?
