MacGruber

Posted: May 21, 2010 at 8:37 am   /   Local, Movie Reviews

I wasn’t too sure what to expect from MacGruber, to be honest. The skits on SNL were funny, but I couldn’t imagine how they’d turn that into a feature-length film. Additionally, I was already reeling from the news that Megan Fox, the Audrey Hepburn of our day, will no longer be in Transformers 3. Mock […]

Seein’ Red – St. Louis Cardinals Baseball

Posted: May 18, 2010 at 9:30 am   /   Local, St. Louis Cardinals

Well for the first time since last July, the Cardinals are no longer in first place. Granted, they are just a half-game back. But for the first time all season, the Cardinals’ struggles offensively has been matched with a bit of a lull from the starting rotation. The Cardinals’ pitching staff still ranks fourth in […]

Note: I will be splitting this review into two separate reviews: one for women, and one for men. The review for men will immediately follow the review for women. First, I have a confession to make. I’m a guy. Now, the fact that I am, in fact, a guy does not preclude me from seeing […]

A Bad Luck Charm?

Posted: May 13, 2010 at 10:38 am   /   Local, St. Louis Cardinals

So far, the Cardinals have lost five home games. So far, I’ve been at four of them. Perhaps the Cardinals should pay me to stay away at this point. Went to the game Tuesday night with my ever-lovely friend Liz, but we had to leave after seven because I had to bartend. We managed to […]

Hello there. Hopefully everyone had a content Mother’s Day that saw the Cardinals take two out of three from the Butt Pirates after dropping the last three to Philadelphia. It looks like the road to the World Series is gonna have to go through Philadelphia. If you’re one of the three readers of this post, […]

How to See 12.5 Hours of Baseball in Two Games

Posted: May 3, 2010 at 9:46 am   /   Local, St. Louis Cardinals

Thus far, I’ve been to two Cardinals games this spring/summer. Thus far, I’ve been at Busch Stadium a grand total of twelve and a half hours. Thus far, I’ve been to two of the Cardinals’ three home losses. The first game was of course the 20 inning marathon. Still had a great time due to […]

The first month of the regular season wraps up tonight with the Cardinals taking on the Cincinnati Communists at Busch. St. Louis wraps up April with no fewer than 15 wins, currently four games ahead of its nearest competitor. Although the outcome isn’t entirely unexpected, the manner in which it was reached has been. When […]

St. Louis Cardinals / NFL Draft Weekend Wrap

Posted: April 26, 2010 at 8:02 am   /   Local, Sports

“Meh.” That seems to be the sentiment going around St. Louis this weekend after the draft. After everyone was set abuzz with the first overall selection of Sam Bradford, St. Louis seemed excited about football for the first time in years. The rest of the draft, however, was simply… Meh. Obviously my clairvoyant skills have […]

NFL Draft Thoughts – First Round

Posted: April 23, 2010 at 8:41 am   /   Local, Sports

Change of pace today. As I sat in an emergency room for four hours last night (turns out I’m not pregnant; they just switched the urine samples), monitoring the draft status on my phone, two thoughts ran through my mind: would the Rams rue picking Bradford, and why didn’t I realize how many hot nurses […]

St. Louis Cardinals News – Rasmus = Boss, and Other Insights

Posted: April 22, 2010 at 9:36 am   /   Local, St. Louis Cardinals

Anyone else watching the game last night almost kinda-sorta hoping for a brawl? Obviously, Chris Carpenter getting in a fight and getting suspended/hurt would be quite a bad thing for the team, but I love his bulldog old school mentality.
