Okay, technically the Blues have played 39 games so far, so it’s not midpoint. Leave me alone; I’m temporarily brain-damaged [more on that later]. But it’s close enough. Thus far, the Blues sit in ninth place with a 20-13-6 record and 46 points, but they also have played four fewer games than the eighth-place team. […]
Missouri Tigers – Gabbert Declares In a move that shouldn’t really have surprised any Mizzou fans,quarterback Blaine Gabbert declared himself eligible for the 2011 draft. Gabbert’s junior season was better in some categories than 2009, but worse in others. He improved his completion percentage by 4.5 points, from 58.9 to 63.4% and he also ran […]
Well, if last night didn’t lead to an increase in blood pressure medicine being prescribed, nothing will. But, hindsight’s 20/20, and overall 2010 can’t be considered anything less than a massive success for the Rams. I’m gonna look back at last night’s game, the season overall, and look ahead at 2011 and beyond. Last Night […]
For most St. Louisans, 2010 wasn’t exactly a super memorable year in sports. None of the big teams won a championship, few players had standout years, and many of the teams in general were disappointing given pre-season expectations. Still, there were moments to remember. I’ll look back on the year in general for local sports […]
As my good friend Chris pointed out last night, the Cardinals apparently appear poised to try to rejuvenate everyone’s career. Fresh off a disappointing stint with the New York Yankees, Lance Berkman has signed a one year deal with the Cardinals worth $8 million. Berkman’s been a pain in the ass for the Cardinals for […]
“We create our heaven and hell.” Perhaps the most sagacious words ever uttered by a heroin addict shooting up in her bathroom. Much like her, anyone who goes and sees “Faster” will create their own heaven and hell, depending on whether they watch the entire movie. I’m a guy. I like action movies. I’ll relentlessly […]
One of the reasons I quit my six-figure salaried job on Wall Street was because I could get unlimited movie passes and an even more exorbitant salary. But really, it was for the love of the movies I’d get to see. Clearly, one of the films I had in mind was Love & Other Drugs. […]
In a move that should come as a surprise to nobody, Bud Seligh announced the push to expand the MLB playoffs is moving forward. Under the proposed format, there would be two wild card teams from each league that would play each other for the right to advance before the divisional series would begin. Selig […]
Congrats to both St. Louis Cardinals who managed to take home Gold Gloves in 2010, Albert Pujols and Yadier Molina. For Molina, it was his third consecutive award; Pujols grabbed his second award, his first since 2006. Arguably two more Cardinals could have won the award, Adam Wainwright (the 2009 winner) and Brendan Ryan. Certainly […]
If you’re like me, you’re an overweight Asian man who leads a sad, lonely existence. But, you also like football. Last weekend was one of the best in recent history for Missouri, taking down the top-ranked Oklahoma Sooners. This weekend offers a terrific chance for Missouri to show once and for all that it belongs […]
