Stan Musial receives Presidential Medal of Freedom (VIDEO)

I’m not announcing anything you don’t already know, but I can certainly provide you an easy way to see the entire ceremony.

Below is the White House feed of the entire ceremony.  Stan Musial wasn’t the only one receiving the honor today from President Barack Obama, there were a lot of big names on the stage with ‘The Man’.  Bill Russell, Maya Angelou, Warren Buffett, George H.W. Bush, and many others worthy of such an honor joined Musial.

The video is forty minutes long, only parts of which address Musial – but it’s worth watching every bit.  Goosebumps.  I’ll give you about two seconds to pick Stan out on stage…

Before the ceremony, I was able to take part in a blogger roundtable for KMOV.com – you can read mine and the others’ responses to a great question about Musial.

Congratulations Mr. Musial, you have made and continue to make Cardinal Nation proud.

Writing about the Cardinals and other loosely associated topics since 2008, I've grown tired of the April run-out only to disappoint Cardinal fans everywhere by mid-May. I do not believe in surrendering free outs.
