St-louis-cardinals_tiny by stlcardinalsfang on Comment 384 comments


Let me get this straight -- Tony went w/ LaRue over Yadi b/c LaRue provides "veteran leadership" (Yadi's not a veteran and doesn't provide leadership?); went w/ Ankiel over Rasmus after his homer last night but sat Rasmus yesterday after his homer Sunday; and chose Greene over DeRosa based on the fact that Greene had 7 hits in 12 career ABs against Billingsley? Hmmm....

The problem is that the prostate swells

and causes pressure on the bladder, which causes all these guys on the golf course to think they have to piss all the time.
