Yes, I’m pretty sure the Cardinals have gone to plaid, but I’ll explain that later. Focus on poker first, because I have a serious poker/baseball question to ask. Are the Cardinals going “all in” for 2011? For those of you who aren’t familiar with the phrase “all in”, it’s a poker term that refers to a […]

It’s a double-edged sword of a question that needs asking. Is Cooperstown really worthy? Is it worthy of all the respect it is given, considering just how much the people charged with its hallowed gate-keeping have dropped the ball over the years? Also, is it really worthy of all the hoopla, considering that it sits out […]

Kid 1 (Cardinals fan): Okay, I’ve got a Wade Boggs and two Dwight Gooden rookie cards in pristine condition, and they are in sleeves. Heck, they still smell like gum. Kid 2 (Mets fan): I’ll give you any 3 Cardinals cards and a pack of gum for one Gooden card. Kid 1: I’ll take the […]

Seriously. Give this some thought. Albert Pujols is currently 45th on the all-time hr list with 408. Alex Rodriguez is currently 6th with 613. Albert will play his age 31 season in 2011, and A-Rod will play his age 35 season at the same time. By the time Albert retires, do you think that he’ll […]

I’m sorry. I know you’re ready to move on, and so am I. But first, I wanted to address Dennis’ post from Friday – The Fall Guy. I started to gather my thoughts for a well-written response as a comment to that post, but it quickly became clear it was going to be too long-winded […]

Relax. It’s just a saying. Yes, I’m referring to Tony LaRussa, but I’m not actually saying that he’s Beelzebub himself. If he were the Prince of Darkness, he’d probably be a bit taller, or he’d be named “Selig”. Anyway, the title is simply a reference to the fact that I’m using this space to give […]

You’ve probably heard that the New York Yankees are a team scorned, and they are in search of a top shelf starting pitcher. The Cardinals just happen to have a couple of those, and one just happens to be nearing the end of his contract. He’s ‘s already spent 6 seasons pitching in the AL, […]

Yes, I’ve just “coined” a new term, and it’s named the “Pujols Coin”. Like most coins, it has both a “heads” and a “tails” side, and I’m using it to represent the two sides of the debate over whether or not the Cardinals should sign Albert Pujols to a contract extension. There are probably dozens of well-written articles […]

If you have to ask, you probably can’t afford it. You’ve probably all heard this line at one time or another. It’s usually said in jest, but there are indeed times when it is completely appropriate and sadly true. Consider the case of the Pagani Zonda or the Bugatti Veyron. What are those? If you […]
