The day after the Cardinals rolled over and burped in GM5 of the World Series, we spent the day coming to grips that the odds are not in favor of #12in13.
Then, the signs.
First, the tickets for GM6 in Boston. One pair sold for $24,000 on StubHub. The average ticket price is creeping up towards $2,000. The Red Sox haven't clinched a World Series in Boston since 1918 and their fans are treating a championship as a fait accompli.
Good sign or bad sign?
Then the Cardinals, tried, you know, to actually get to Boston to take their presumed butt-kicking. But Delta doesn't just delay you… NOOOO. They kept the Birds grounded for SIX HOURS!
Baseball is officially not America's pastime anymore. Six hours to find a different plane??? However, the hilarious hashtag #CardsPlaneProblems was spawned:

Good sign or bad sign?
We'll have a much better idea in about 24 hours. For now, we'll just have to continue to stew.
