2011 Missouri Tigers Football Preview
I love fall. The weather cools, fall softball is in full swing, the baseball pennant race winds down, and every weekend there is an absolute plethora of football.

Cardinals Thoughts, Big 12 Begone
Welp, aside from Ryan Ludwick and Chris Carpenter, I think it’s safe to say none of the Cardinals showed up to play in LA this week. Studwick went 4 for 12 with three bombs and five RBI. Carpenter pitched a terrific game on Tuesday but got a no-decision as the Cardinals ultimately lost 1-0. The […]
