O Cardinals, O Cardinals
You certainly surprised us.
We never really thought you'd win
Your chances seemed so very thin.

So I was out walking my owner the other day, and he had an interesting observation, which happens about as often as the Cubs win the World Series.
When he was a lad, baseball was America's sport. Since then, the NFL had gained supremacy. He noted that the NFL's premier event, the Super Bowl, starts at 6:30 and ends around 10:00. All of America gets to see it and talk about it the next day at work or at school. The World Series, however, starts at 8:15. This meant that one of the most exciting games in baseball history, this year's game six, ended at 12:45 AM, when he and I (as well as most of the east coast) were safely tucked into bed.
His suggestion was to move some of the World Series to day games in order that the today's youth can be as captivated by the heroics of Hamilton and Pujos as he once was by Mantle and Berra.
I suggested that he give me more treats.
