LaRussa is a baseball genius...perhaps an evil genius...cause he must have done some kind of voodoo to get the Phillies to sweep Atlanta in the final 3 games of the reg. season...allowing one of the hottest teams in the league at the time(his Card's) to get into the postseason...over one of the worst(the Braves).

...(either that or Phillies management must be filled with complete baseball-strategy idiots)

Face it, the same baseball gods that love teams like the Cardinals and Yankees...hate the Cubs(and others).

...nobody said life was fair.

LaRussa a genius? He can hardly drool out a sentence to the ump when he tries to make an inane argument about a call . . . and then he forgets what he was arguing about . . . LOLOLOL

Tony's managerial moves are all routine . . . he basically got lucky in his series. Nothing he did led to any advantage . . . he can't even wipe his own ass anymore.

But all that aside, as a human being, Tony is just such a piece of garbage . . .

. he basically got lucky in his series.

Because the opposing manager was a mental midget.

He's won 2 World Series in 5 years...both times with the worst reg. season record of all the other playoff teams.

He gets the best out of his players...at the right time.

Nothing he did led to any advantage

He only won a World Series title tonight...!!!!

How close to the brewery do you live??

BARTENDER - BigJohn has had enough - Someone CALL A CAB!

Your hatred for Tony and Mark is obvious - are they POS? I am not an authority on POS, obviously you are so I will take your word for it. In the meantime the honorable people of St. Louis and the St. Louis Cardinal PLAYERS played to win and won! Hats off to the Texas Rangers for a great 7 game series.
