  1. And St. Louis County has rednecks falling out of their jorts. The redneck @ Black Thorn Pub who told me about burying his mom in her nylon Cards jacket was a city resident. It's not like there's a designated neighborhood where all the rednecks reside, but have no doubt, they're highly adaptable to/can thrive in urban settings. St. Louis isn't an exception.
  2. Wow worst sig ever. Wow indeed, South Park guy. Wow.
  3. Whoa, whoa, whoa...So I've gotta Indian Wrestle NewUserName for posting rights? I don't even have an Indian in my avatar. Seriously, I've just gotten back into hockey after a layoff of about 8 years. Blues fans will do that to ya.
  4. Wings in 5. Stamp it. :wink: <---smilies denote friendly intentions
  5. The Yellow Submarine was horrible. Tommy was much better. But "A Hard Day's Night" is an outstanding film. "Help" not so much. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure that the Beatles were stoned throughout much of the filming of "Help" It's been a few years since I've seen it.
  6. Make that a 1 vote lead. Sorry wolf and CFIC, Pink Floyd is better.
  7. hmm Michael = CardsFanInChiTown thrill = wolf stansson planet pujolsian = indifferent G. Keenan = vaball ManEatingTarp all trolls :wink:
  8. Sounds like you might be correct Link- http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/columns/story?columnist=wojciechowski_gene&id=2511798
  9. Agreed. Depending on how the offense comes together with a different focal point, and how well the secondary plays, I could see them being within a game or so of last year in either direction, with a chance for a miracle season. 7 home games this year is gonna be awesome. Hey TT, Stewart Mandel is really down on Pinkel. I can't say that I follow Mizzou football, but you might find his take interesting. You can see how he rates the 10 Best/5 Worst college football coaches here- http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2006/writers/stewart_mandel/06/28/mandel.mailbag/index.html
  10. I was a bit surprised by it, soccer10k. On Thursday he seemed to be way out in front of the pitches and his timing wasn't all there. He was making contact, but they were soft grounders.
  11. I understand that Albert stipulated that he'd be playing the field upon his return, but I'd rather he DH.
  12. How can you not like a guy who says stuff like this :) I love the Moonman! • "This big standing-room only crowd is settling into their seats." • "It's raining like a Chinese fire drill!" • (After Brian Jordan was hit by a pitch for the 4th time on a single road trip): "Jordan must feel like a Ouija Board." • (Referring to Bernard Gilkey): "He was originally born in University City." "He's faster than a chicken being chased by Ronald McDonald!" • (Referring to Mike Schmidt): "the longtime, and soon-to-be, Hall-of-Famer." • (Referring to Hideo Nomo): "He's the biggest thing to hit Japan since they dropped the bomb on Nagashima!" • "This game is off to a rather conspicuous start, don't you think. Jack?" • "Well, folks, this game began as a tiny worm, and is blossoming into a large cobra." • "That foul tip bounced up and caught him right in the groins...and that'll really clear your eyes out." • "A hit up the middle right now would be like a nice ham sandwich and a cold, frosty one." • (Broadcasting from New York under a full moon): "I wish you folks back in St. Louis could see this moon." • (On the day before Easter): "I just want to tell everyone 'Happy Easter and Happy Hanukkah.'" • "Things are not always as they appear to be as." • "Well, he did everything right to get ready for the throw, but if ya ain't got the hose, the water just won't come out." • "Our next homestand follows this road trip." • (Referring to a home run by Ted Simmons): "and that's the bread on Simmons' butter." • "The right-hander is throwing up (instead of 'up, throwing') in the bullpen." • "I've heard it said that if you know English, Spanish, Italian, and I think it's French, you can go just about anywhere in this world...except China where they have all those derelicts." After a pause, Joe Buch suggested that Mike has meant to say "dialects." Mike responded, "Yeah, dialects! That's what I mean...but they've got a lot of derelicts too!" • "He ran to second faster than a cat in Chinatown." • "I wouldn't have see it if I hadn't believed it." • "Don't bite off your head to spite your nose." • Joe: "Mike, the Cardinals would like to welcome a group of 19 French foreign exchange students in Section 382." Mike: "Where're they from, Joe?" Joe: "Uhh, France, I think." • A couple of years back, Mike and Joe were discussing the unflattering photographs of players that had been flashed on the screen at another ballpark. Mike's take on the quality of the photo selection was: "Some of those guys look like the picture was taken while they were seeing their first UFO." After several seconds of laughter, Joe added, "As opposed to their second or third." • "The wind switched 360 degrees." • "Boy, a cold, frosty Budweiser would be great about now"...long pause...then an "ahhh" • Mike's classic: "Ol' Abner Doubleday has done it again." • "It's raining so hard I thought it was going to stop." • "The crowd's on their feet for the Canadian Star Bangled Banner." • "Back in the day when I played, a pitcher had 3 pitches: a fastball, a curveball, a slider, a changeup and a good sinker pitch."
  13. Pardon my ignorance, but who are you quoting in your signature? You cannot be serious? How many IDIOTIC MANAGERS in baseball would say something like that? Wow! That was a quick reply! I'll refrain from comment OMG....he really said that?!?! My sincere condolences.
  14. Pardon my ignorance, but who are you quoting in your signature?
  15. 5) He is Miguel Cabrera's father who is actually 50 years old. Albert was 7 years old when his wife had Miguel. He is also the grandfather of Miguel's kids, Shakira and Wilmer Valderamma. 6) His back ailment is not baseball-related. He hurt his back while pointing to the sky as he shouted, "BINGO!" Other reports claim that he injured his back during a bench-clearing bocce ball match. Those rascally Guillen kids were there as was Joey Cora, who is reported to have bitten Albert's ankle during the altercation. 7) His wife is a founding memeber of The Red Hat Society along with Julio Franco's wife. Here's a pic of the two: (Mrs Pujol's on the left) http://starbulletin.com/2003/02/20/features/artc.jpg 8) I'm a Cards fan who has no problem poking fun at his own team.
  16. I agree with this sentiment however, this part jumped out at me. Griffey wrote: I have to go places, normal places like the grocery store and hear it (repeated). He absolutely has to go to the grocery store? C'mon Jr, I don't buy that. Maybe Walgreens late at night if one of the kids gets sick but not the grocery store.
  17. It's not just you. Seen "The Matrix?" Well, that's a reality and Chris Berman is running all of our lives.
  18. As a fan of that "team to be rumored", I'll admit that I'd smile a little bit if the Cubs won the WS. You folks are darn good fans. Take solace in the fact that Barry might pass da Babe and limp right past Albert in just a few hours :wink:
  19. Hey Tiger, nice to see you here :)
  20. http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/columns/story?columnist=wojciechowski_gene&id=2452996 psst I'm a Cards fan
