just referring to Madden video games
where sometimes it seems like the computer has no intentions of letting you win, no matter what you do. you could be up by 5 touchdowns with a minute to go, and there was no effing way the computer was going to let you win.
Those games are always the best...
NCAA decided to kill all my QBs for a game… oh yeah that was fun.

I once had the Falcons in the Super Bowl
1st and goal, one timeout with :22 seconds left to go. Vick ran on 1st down and got injured on the half inch line. My backup QB was slow as snot and I tried to roll out and run it in. As time expired, he was brought down at the 1 and I lost the Super Bowl.

If Carp struggles like this next start
he needs to be skipped a start to give him a break.
"I remember once talking to one guy on the Cardinals and asking him what Pujols was like as a teammate. He said something that’s really special, if you think about it. He said: "Albert is so good that you feel like you let him down when you screw up." I thought that had to be the ultimate line that could ever be said about a ballplayer. I build my baseball team around that ballplayer."
Carp typically needs the first inning to settle down
When the umpire is being a fuck, he typically takes a little longer.

Part of the reason Carp is slipping
is because his timing is off on his pitching. I wonder if he has a stiff back because his top half and his bottom half aren’t working in rhythm.

he was stretching his back in the first. His mechanics have been wildly inconsistent and they are so bad tonight his landing spot is inconsistent.

again, my favorite Yadi speed story:
I’m at an airport in Sacramento or something like that a couple of years ago. Randomly, there is this 50-something woman watching the Cards game intently at the airport bar, so I join in. Chat for a minute, Yadi grounds into a double play or something. She says “poor Yadi. he tries so hard to be fast, but he’s just not.”

is still my favorite yadi speed quote.
hence, why it’s the sig.

Greg Amsiger or whatever his name is
also graduated from Linewood. They are just about the only two famous people to graduate from the school.
Seriously, was there an open competition? Did he intern with the Cardinals? I remember he used to work on FX when they had baseball and he’s never really been a super-impressive broadcaster. So to get hired straight out of college and be given a GREAT job like this is impressive and puzzling at the same time.

I think Karriker graduated from Lindenwood.
Ramsey might have too.

I cant believe they are gonna push Carp in a 6 run game.
"I remember once talking to one guy on the Cardinals and asking him what Pujols was like as a teammate. He said something that’s really special, if you think about it. He said: "Albert is so good that you feel like you let him down when you screw up." I thought that had to be the ultimate line that could ever be said about a ballplayer. I build my baseball team around that ballplayer."
