I’ve been spending most of my Cardinal brainpower lately keeping up with those prolific writers of the United Cardinal Bloggers.  These guys are making me think really seriously about what I know about the Cardinals and what I’ve yet to learn.  At any rate, I’m throwing my $0.02 in there.  Check out the discussions posted […]

John’s question for the group was this: I’ll start us off with what I feel is an “easy” topic. A big question for this offseason was answered with the resigning of Lohse. Was this the […]

The 2008 off-season

by on October 2, 2008 · 4 comments

Well, the Cardinals of course had to go and win the last six games of 2008.  They finally put together a sweep of a team that they should’ve been putting away all season long.  Of course, it was too little too late, and the Redbirds are making tee times. All that aside, that doesn’t mean […]
