"He's dead, dude."

The "BABE" lives for all times.

I agree, but the Babe HATED THE YANKEES (And LOVED playing for Boston). He was so upset over the trade that he cursed the Sox...

But now he's mellowed, and feels he'd fit right in with these band of idiots!

I've heard that he disliked the Yankees too or New York, but back then, I don't think, the Yankees were as much of a power in baseball.

THat's what happened when the Babe came, they started their long run of success I believe, 27 championships or whatever that was.

A lot of times, people hate winners but I don't know if the Yankees were that back then.

Not to take away from the Cardinals, even if they even this series up somehow, to me, the great sporting event was the Red Sox Yankees series. In a way, this Cards Sox series is an anti-climax.
