Saying the Yankees deserve to go to the World Series is like saying A-rod will take a paycut, both will never happen.
We beat the Muts, The Padres, and the Tigers. I just bought the official lockerroom t-shirt they had and it looks damn good,

I would imagine for the same reason Detroit doesnt get any respect:
They are NOT in new york.
To heck with the media. You and I both know the real deal, and that's all that matters.

They're fools who make excuses for their own teams' ineptitude.
The bottom line is the Padres, Mets and Tigers all had their chances to beat the Cardinals, and they couldn't do it. Based on how easily the Cardinals disposed of the Tigers, an argument could be made the Mets could have beat the Tigers too. The Mets, who were much closer to beating the Cardinals, had the
best excuse/reason of the bunch. They were without two of their
starting pitchers, but still managed to make the 2006 NLCS
competitive. They would have crushed the Yankees if that was
the World Series. The people who don't show the team who
played the best baseball when it matters the most aren't worth
your time. You show proper respect to the champions, whether
you love them or hate them.

I'm a huge Cardinals fan, but I'll try to keep this answer unbiased. It could be for a bunch of reasons really, depends on who you ask. A lot of kids at my high school wanted the Tigers to win, but I'm not really sure why. It could be because the Cards got a LOT of lucky breaks -- the Astros just happened to lose that game. Then the Cards/Mets series -- it went up to game 7, and a lot of people think the Mets team are one of the best this year, although again, it depends on who you ask. Also, some people disagree with Tony La Russa's strategy and attitude, some people think he's too intense. Plus he hasn't won a World Series in a while. Again, there are a million reasons why a person thinks the World Series champs do/don't deserve to win, but it depends on who you ask.
Me, I'm just super happy -- my team won the 2006 World Series through hard work and perseverence and hope, even though things looked bleak a lot this year. They won the World Series in my last year of middle school, and my favorite player David Eckstein was voted MVP for the Series. ^_^
Compare my response to someone who likes the Mets, for example, and you'll get a totally different response, most of the time.

Why does everyone say the Cardinals got lucky?.. It has nothing to do with luck. The Cardinals pulled it together on the games that REALLY mattered, they did what they needed to do as a team to advance and win the world championship. That's not luck, that's just being better at a team sport for a collective amount of time... The Cardinals played hard for the World Series title they now have. Show some respect. They earned it.

people like to show disrepect instead hey man i give it up to the cards i'm a mets fan but i root for the cards as well i figured hell one of my team will win no matter what but people are generally sore losers when it's all said and done don't listen to these tigers fans because if detroit would have won they would say it's because they are the greatest team on earth but since they lost they say it's because of lack of experience which did play a little part but overall st.louis did what detroit couldn't do and thats take advantages of the opportuinities that were presented to them and they pitched played defense and hit which detroit didn't do much of it's detroits fault that they lost who told them to start playing like idiots hell they were patient with their bats the whole postseason then the world series came and they didn't do what they did the whole postseason

I like Cardinals they are pretty birds. Anyway it's been such a long time since the Cardinals last won that they were due. They wouldn't have been there if they didn't deserve it!!!
