Having the best intentions can get you in trouble emotionally in the world of sports.
Heading into Saturday’s Game 3, St. Louis sports fans thought the Blues had the Boston Bruins right where they wanted them. The pregame atmosphere coupled with the momentum from Game 2 started writing a story that ended with a parade on 14th and Clark.
And then Boston shit on that thoughtful parade with a 6-2 beatdown that stained the glass of The Lou for two days. Sunday became bloody in a way, and it wasn’t just for the amount of Bloody Mary’s consumed at brunch.
