| How will the St. Louis Cardinals do next year? | | This season has been an absolute nightmare. Starting with Tony LaRussa's dui and Josh Hancock's death, to all of the injuries and the Rick Ankiel scandal, this season sucked. The team will bounce back next year, right? | |
| | Should the St. Louis Cardinals cuts all ties with the Hancock's? | | Anheuser Busch has always had a close tie with the St. Louis Cardinals. Anheuser Busch is head quartered in St. Louis so obviously the two make a good partnership. At one time Anheuser Busch owned the Cardinals, they own the rights to the name on the stadium, and they are the #1 advertiser for Cardinal baseball. Now I am sure that people have heard the Hancock story, Josh Hancock was driving drunk one night, talking on his cell phone, and plowed into a tow truck and died instantly.
Now obviously, St. Louis at first did the right thing. They expressed sympathy to the Hancock family for the loss of their son, and put a patch on their uniform to remember Josh Hancock every time they went out to play this year. The problem starts with Dean Hancock, father of Josh Hancock, sueing the restaurant that served his son beer, sueing the restaurant manager, the tow truck company that his son plowed into their truck, sueing the driver of the tow truck, and sueing the owner the car that the tow truck was picking up. So if I am counting that is five people he is currently sueing. He might also bring into the lawsuit also the Cardinals and Major Leaque Baseball.
The problem is if Dean Hancock... | |

| Who thinks the St. Louis Cardinals can repeat? | | Want to see if I can get any trash talk about the Cardinals repeating or any other team that they may stomp on this year (like the Cubs). I am a big Cardinals fan but even I know it is not likely but it is fun to think about, at least before the season begins. | |

| spring training | | how do you think spring training is going?I am impressed, like most people, about the pitching situation. I can not believe we are this far along with our pitchers. It may be the first time in quite a few years we'll have firm starters in place when the team leaves Flordia.But I am concerned about Edmonds. Your thoughts? | |
| | Albert Pujols - Hall Of Fame Worthy? | | I wrote this as a blog before but I wanted to share it on here, because I like opinions at the end. Albert Pujols won his second straight NL MVP Award and third overall(2005, 2008, 2009), receiving all 28 votes. It shouldn't a shock to anyone considering the numbers Pujols posted this season with a .327 BA, 47 HR's and 147 RBI's this season he certainly deserves the award for the second straight year in a row. At the end of the 2009 season Pujols led all active Major League Baseball players in batting average, slugging percentage, and he ranks among the leading home run hitters in Major League history. Can we say Hall Of Fame material, I think there's no doubt about it. Pujols is only one of three players to ever win three MVP awards before the age of 30, he is 29. The only other two MLB players to do it were Barry Bonds and Stan Musial. Albert has finished in the top five in voting every season except in 2005 when he finished ninth. I'm not shocked by any means to see Albert win this award in the National League for the second year in a row, he produced phenomenal numbers yet again. I personally believe we will see Albert make it into t he MLB Hall Of Fame. To think... | |
