Congratulations.
Now, they have to go against the best team in the Majors, the Los Angeles Angels, who have home field advantage througout the playoffs.

I remember the I-70 series, I can't believe it was that long ago.

Being from the St. Louis area and in a family of big Cardinal fans, I still root for the underdog. I want to see the Cubs in the series before I die, no matter how much I get shouted down for saying so!

I wouldn't be too upset if it happened again. It's not like we haven't had enough success over here, and we have a lot of family and friends in the KC area.

"Oh let's trade our best hitter for a rental pitcher because he has World Series experience!"

Hey as an Angels fan who has seen lots of disappointments throughout the years, let me tell you how well that works out.

They're playing like they think they belong. That's pretty important. They're not just happy to be there. They actually think they can win the whole thing.

Any Minnesota sports fan can identify and sympathize with other long-suffering fans.

Hope they take it all.
