I am going to be really disappointed

If Waino doesn’t get 20 wins this year. I know all the arguments as to why wins are not that big of a measurement stat, but I don’t care. If he wins 20 and doesn’t win the Cy young then thats fine. But I really want 20.

"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."

two more starts after this?

Anyone here going to any of the games in Houston?

The Cardinls have never gone to a World series in a year ending in 9. Every other year they have: 1930, 31, 42, 82, 43, 34, 44, 64, 85, 26, 46, 2006, 67, 87 , 28 & 68. But no 9s, Could this be the year?

yes

runner stopped at 3rd and advanced when the ball got past pujols. Can’t assume the double play, so there is no error for the runner reaching first. But, since the runner from 3rd advanced, an error is given, i’m guessing to boog.

This is one of the biggest plays in Super Bowl history and Joe Buck barely raises his voice. Gus Johnson would have spontaneously combusted if he announced that.

i'm pretty sure

i live in some sort of black hole where all internet goes to die

was watching the game via espn360 with my phone’s att internet since the start at work, then going down the highway at 70 mph, then getting out of my car and walking up to my door, then inside. i then set my laptop down and the game proceeds to start skipping every 5 seconds. now i’m stuck listening to mike shannon because you don’t get espn 360 with time warner
