The St. Louis Cardinals won Game 6 of the National League Championship Series Sunday night to bring their 18th pennant home and punch their ticket to their World Series for the first time since 2006 when they won it all.
After rallying from a 10 1/2-game deficit at the end of August, the Cards played their asses off to earn the Wild Card before defying the odds and beating the Philadelphia Phillies in the NLDS. It took them six exciting games, but they tossed the Milwaukee Brewers out of the postseason to make it to the Fall Classic and take on the American League Champion Texas Rangers.
Meanwhile, Tony Hush, Ryan Braun, Prince Fielder, and the rest of the Brewers will disperse to their offseason homes. Where the free agent Fielder will go, no one is quite sure. Speaking of sad things, here is the Brew Crew's farewell to a fantastic season. In unfortunate photo montage...

That girl crying... seriously.
HA! @ Dotel holding the stuffed squirrel.
That's right! TONY PLUSH IS ALL TONY HUSH UP IN HERE.
Also, that sequence of sausages is hilarious.
Tiny nitpic; the Braves are the ones who squandered the 8.5 game lead, not the Cardinals. STL was 10.5 out of the wild card on August 25, then went 23-9 the rest of the way.
Fixed! Not sure what I was thinking making their run seem less awesome by two games...
