Cardinals to Return to KMOX in 2011, Perhaps Regain Focus By Then
After five years of being broadcast on the smaller and less powerful 550 KFNS radio station, the St. Louis Cardinals announced that they are returning to 1120 KMOX, the station they were broadcast on for more than 50 years. The Cardinals also announced that they hoped to start winning once again in 2011, and perhaps [...]
DONNIE AVERY IS OUT FOR THE SEASON.
Donnie Avery was looking to breakout this season with a new quarterback throwing the ball his way. That was until the turf in Foxborough Massachusetts jumped up and takled him. In the second quarter of the pre-season game versus the Patriots Avery was streaking down the sideline and an awkward step tripped him up and [...]
St. Louis Rams Fans: The Future is Bright!
I don’t have a problem admitting it when I am wrong, and was I wrong!!! It is always said that the third pre-season game is the dress rehersal for the beginning of the season. The starters usually play into the third quarter and get tuned up so they can watch the last pre-season game the [...]
THE RAMS HAVE A NEW OWNER!!!!
YES ST. LOUIS WE HAVE A NEW OWNER OF THE RAMS…STAN KRONKE! The NFL owners unanimously approved Stan Kronke as the seventh majority owner in the 73 year history of the Rams. Stan was a minority owner of the team with Goergia Frontiere (wife of late Carrol Rosenblum) until her death in 2008. When Chip [...]
Bradford Gets The Start Verses The Patsies With A Tiger Of A Target!
A. J. Feeley has been officially scratched from the roster for this Thursdays pre-season game against the New England Patriots with a sprained thumb. The injury is not severe. The team wants to be cautious with Feeley and say he should return to the practice field on Saturday following the New England game. This means rookie [...]
St. Louis Rams Show Some More Progress in Rain Soaked Cleveland
The Rams entered a rain soaked Cleveland Stadium for their second preseason game verses the Browns having to improve on all areas of their football team. Last week the offensive line was scared away by the imposing Minnesota Vikings defense and the Quarterbacks were the one to suffer. The wide receivers might as well have been [...]
Feeley Hurt, Rams Fans Rejoice
Ok, the headline’s a bit apocryphal. I hope, anyway. Playing in what looked to be a monsoon, the Rams gutted out a 19-17 win at Cleveland. It certainly wasn’t the prettiest win, and it was a pre-season game, but hey, any port in a storm. Thoughts on the game: – A.J. Feeley isn’t ready to [...]
Restoring Faith in Sports
In sports, the goal is by nature to be competitive, to win, regardless of cost and feelings. See: James, LeBron. If you watch enough sports, you will see these stories countless times. These are the stories that attract negative attention to sports, that convince people of the selfish, narcissistic nature of sports. It’s unfortunate, then, [...]
Valiant Bullpen Effort Can’t Prevent Rascals Loss, Snowcone from Melting
I’m not sure whether to be amused or unsettled by the fact that the vendors in the Beer Garden of T.R. Hughes now recognize my friends and I on the spot. After the entertaining double-header and dollar beer last week, it took little convincing for me to get Jackie and Elizabeth to come to the [...]
Cardinals Trade Carpenter for Feliz…
…just not the Carpenter you’re thinking of. “WE JUST TRADED CARP” my friend Lauren texted me before realizing the Cardinals did not, in fact, trade Chris Carpenter, but David Carpenter, a relief pitcher for Class A Palm Beach. In exchange for Carpenter, the Astros sent 3B Pedro Feliz and cash. While I was hoping they’d [...]
