The St. Louis Cardinals: 2011 World Series Champions

The Fall Classic brings out the best of this beautiful game. For me, as a fan of the sport, it makes no real difference who plays, I try to watch as many games as I can, regular, exhibition, all star, playoffs. I watched the Angels ascending, Red Sox break their curse, the Fish stylin' all over, the Fear the Beard gimmick etc. There's something else when you watch "your" team, I've also watched how the Tigers collapsed, and now this. Maybe it's just that this season's ups and downs synced with the ups and downs I had last year and the comeback and never-say-die are the key motives in this picture. You can feel the roller coaster before every game, during every game, and after every game, in a spectacular culmination when Freese unleashed it, making one final statement that you should never give up.But the story doesn't end here. Once you relive the season and see the celebrations and parades (which at that point seemed a bit overwhelming for me living overseas), you get to relive that epic game. Carpenter and Halladay. Close friends. Fierce competitors. Yeah you know the score and yeah you know that in the end it was Ryan Howard who choked at another season on the line moment. But it's games like those that makes everyone tip their hat and salute this majestic game. And you can see it, inning by inning, pitch by pitch.I think one should definitely try and watch this. It doesn't matter which team you support, if you like the game.

Living in St.Louis and being a Cardinal fan all my life, I didn't think any DVD could do the Card's 2011 season justice. But, I couldn't pass up the chance to check it out.This DVD showed so many things than in the "heat of the moment" a lot of us Cardinals fans didn't see in real time. The camera angles are the best I have ever seen. At one point you could actually see the expression on Yadi's face moments before he threw out a runner. Amazing. The interviews were great. This DVD also showed many parts of the stadium that an average fan doesn't see. Kudos to all of those who worked so hard to get this out in such a short length of time. It was a great look back at one of the most amazing finishes in baseball history. Well done.

A must have for the Cardinals fan! I was able to relive the 2011 WS without the emotional roller coaster that I endured when I was watching the series live on television. KMOX fans will love that much of the audio was Mike Shannon and John Rooney. This was a magical season for the Redbirds and something that everyone in Cardinals Nation needs to have in their collection! As the beloved Jack Buck would say, "Go Crazy Folks! Go Crazy!"

This well made DVD is a must-hvae, not only for the millions of Cardinals fans, but for baseball fans in general. This film which is narrated by St. Louisan Jon Hamm is the best MLB produced film to date and Blu-Ray only adds to it.The insight, the camera angles, the in-games remarks by Nick Punto make this a DVD for all baseball fans. This was one of the best World Series ever played. Proving once again, it isn't always about New York, Boston, etc.., I'd say Chicago, but we already know about 1908.Buy it!

Wanted for awhile now, excited to have, received promptly, thank you!

To remember that glorious 2011 season for the Cardinals as they won 11 in 11, was awesome for me. For any fan of baseball especially a Cardinal fan this is a must get item. Watching the film helps me remember all the joy that was apparent in Cardinal Nation that year. I have watched it at least 6 times. Waiting for those three chances Texas had to win game 6, and then watching the Cardinal bench explode with joy, makes me have a better day.

To be honest I thought about giving this a four but whenever a championship is won by my favorite team I am just happy to have this DVD in existence. I just did not feel that this film was long enough and that it did not offer as many features as the 2006 film. For what I consider the best World Series ever and in which many non-cards fans rank highly could have been better. Still better than nothing.

I counted the days for this film, knowing that the producers had in this years World Series winner, the stuff of legend. One improbable comeback after another. The St Louis Cardinals eventual triumph in 2011 was one for the ages. Nothing is overlooked here, not one single key element of the story is forgotten. I can't stop watching it, it should win an Oscar, but it won't bring Albert back. A must for the entire population of Cardinal Nation. 10/10.

Needed to have

Having watched the series whilst abroad my husband really wanted a copy of this, it was the most amazing series and we really enjoyed it. This is perfect all the highlights and the game that was the most tense. Brilliant.

As usual a great DVD-bluray done by MLB. All the action of this amazing world series captured. On bluray even more amazing.
