Yes, they are, and I congratulate them. I don't know how many, but it seems to have been a few years since the last time they were there. I still think they will not make it to the World Series. I am not going to make any excuses for the Saint Louis Cardinals and the very disappointing season they had this year. Very rare for a team with their history and caliber.

I am Loyal to My Country and I am just a working class Civilian. You Strider, need to stop this Hollier Than attitude. You are about 70 years old. Do you really want to waste your remaining years talking Politics? On a Forum dedicated to Led Zeppelin:

I thought you lived in Japan. If that is true, American born or not, why do you espouse views that are related to (or not) issues real people who actually live in the United States of America?

You can call me all the ignorant and inane words you want. Words are just that, words. Doesn't bother or affect me at all. I will say this again about your Orioles, best record or not, they will not make it to the World Series. And what the Fuck is "bud slinging?" I have never heard of those two words put together before.

Baltimore CHOKES again. 1-7. Again, how is Jack Flaherty working out for your team? The Orioles will lose in the first round of the Wild Card.

How can one "steal" talent if it's a mutual decision amongst teams and players to trade for such "talent"? Speaking of trades, how is Jack Flaherty doing for your Orioles? I find it amusing that you think that the Baltimore Orioles are going to win the World Series this year. When was the Last time the Orioles were even in the World Series? 40 Years ago. 40. 1983. I think you will have to wait another 40 years until that happens again.

Who the Fuck is this Means you are constantly bragging about? It seems like he might have to go back on the IL by the way the Cardinals smoked him tonight. Just 5 innings tonight? Even Tommy John pitched better after having surgery in his own name. I realize the Saint Louis Cardinals are done for this season, but Adam Wainwright won his 199th game over your Baltimore Orioles. I said this once and I'll say it again, the Orioles will not make it to the World Series. The Houston Astros will, probably against Atlanta. Just like your Buffalo Bills, they will CHOKE when it really matters.

The 6th and final season of the "Americans". Great show if you like intrigue, espionage and 1980's music. The United States of America versus the evil Soviet Union.

Well, with the way this season has been for the Cardinals and the way this season has been for your Orioles, it wouldn't surprise me if the Cardinals sweep the Orioles. Just like the Cardinals won 2 out 3 against the Braves. I admit it is hard to admit defeat but I believe I did shortly after the All-star game. It's pretty rare for this to happen to an historic franchise like the Saint Louis Cardinals but it happens.

"Sons of Anarchy. "

I will admit defeat for the Saint Louis Cardinals this year. That is something that I never thought I would never say. Regardless, one bad season does not spell doom for my Love of the Cardinals. Just for the record, the Cardinals last losing season was 15 years ago. That is what I am proud of. Like you have said Rick, you can't win them all. I will be still rooting for the Texas Rangers or the Houston Astros. I will say this to you Rick, I wish your Baltimore Orioles success, but don't be too disappointed when they fail in the Playoffs.

Many factors: these off the top of my head and not in chronological order: 1. Songs recorded and released on and for Physical Graffiti. 2. Formation and set-up of Swan Song Records. 3. Jonesy contemplating leaving the band to become Choirmaster at/for Winchester Cathedral. 4. Editing and re-shooting almost half the movie at Shepperton Studios in England. 5. Filming of the "fantasy sequences". Multiple takes of Jimmy climbing the mountain near Boleskine House in Scotland. 6. Jimmy's ever-increasing use of heroin after the 1975 tour. 7. Robert and his family's car accident in Rhodes soon after the Earls Court triumph... I am sure there are plenty of more, complete and accurate reasons that could be provided by others on this Forum. We all know that the basis of the concert for the Song Remains the Same were/was filmed at the final Led Zeppelin shows in NYC Madison Square Garden in 1973. The release of said movie was in 1976. Many positive and negative things can happen in a span of 3 years in the world of Led Zeppelin. If I am wrong or inaccurate about anything I mentioned above, please inform me. Like I said I am remembering by memory (from the dozens and dozens of books I have read) and not using Google for what most younger people would do these days (I think).

Your response and the picture you provided is beyond inane. What the Fuck does a "cookbook" have to do with a real National Security issue that involves the security and Defense of the United States of Americas airspace? Foreign, Domestic, or from an "Alein threat.

Tomorrow, July 26, 2023, there is going to be a special Congressional hearing on the subject of UFO's and/or UAP's. Some members of Congress really want to know what the United States Department of Defense and Pentagon knows about UFO'S/UAP's and why "they" are hiding the truth or flat out lying to the American public about the existence or non-existence of such Unidentified or Anomalous objects that have been reported over the skies (and underwater) of planet Earth since, basically, the beginning of recorded history. Me, personally, have been an avid believer of UFO's (and their existence) since I was a little kid. Who knows what will or will not happen at tomorrow's hearing, but I think that it is about time the United States government finally acknowledges the existence of extraterrestrial life (and the fact that the U.S. government has retrieved or recovered such objects and have been studying and reverse engineering them since 1947). The time is NOW, not 50 years from now when most of us will not be around.

It's funny that you say that about your Orioles. It's funny because the Saint Louis Cardinals having a bad season is almost like a foreign concept to me. 15 consecutive years with winning record over .500. This is the worst start to a season for the Cardinals in over 100 years (or something like that). Like you mentioned, to their credit this doesn't happen very often. Wainwright is having a very bad year. Not going out the way he had hoped. It sucks because Adam Wainwright has been a beloved Cardinal for 19 years/seasons. I think the only reason he did not retire last year with Molina and Pujols is because he wants to reach 200 wins which at the moment he is 2 shy of that feat. That, and the fact that he is being paid $17 million this year. The only rebuild the Cardinals need is in pitching, both starting and relief. The core offense of the Cardinals is pretty solid, led by Goldschmidt and Arenado. They have the capacity to score a lot of runs like they did yesterday against the Yankees. 11-4. As for your Orioles, is this just a fluke year for them? As far as I know, nobody expected them to be this good, this year. Same goes for the Texas Rangers who I am rooting for in the American League. All-Star game coming up real soon, then the second half of the season.

As much as I hope the Cardinals win a game or two against the Yankees (for your sake), it really will not make a difference for the Cardinals in the standings. My faith in the Cardinals still has not wavered, however, with each loss, my faith in the Cardinals this year is waning. Regardless of any future outcome(s) this season, I continue to support the Saint Louis Cardinals, in victory or defeat.

John Goodman was there cheering on his Cardinals. I saw a picture of him with Ozzie Smith.

Death Wish 2 on Amazon Prime Video. "Music composed and played by JIMMY PAGE". This is seen in the opening credits (minus the "'s). It's been a couple of decades since I last saw this. Charlie Bronson, "you believe in Jesus". Bad guy, "yes, I do". Charlie, "well, you're gonna meet him". Classic.

Yes, the Cardinals lost and keep losing. I'll be honest, it's very hard to see the Cardinals in last place this year or any year (even though that rarely happens). Still had fun at the game with my girlfriend and brother. I wore my Molina jersey and my brother wore a blue Rangers t-shirt. He was amazed at how many people we saw that were wearing Cardinals red jerseys and shirts. I swear for every 10 people at least 7 were wearing Cardinals attire. If I didn't know it, I could swear that this game was in Saint Louis at Busch Stadium. Even when the Cardinals got a hit or a run (which wasn't a lot), there were cheers going on in the stands. Before we got to the Globe Life Park, I told my brother that if we got separated just look for the guy wearing a red Cardinals jersey. Once we got there he laughed at that because there were thousands of people wearing red Cardinals Jerseys. Literally, thousands of people. Anyway, I am slowly losing all hope for the Cardinals this year. Slowly. What remains and always will, is my love, devotion and loyalty to the Saint Louis Cardinals organization. One losing season in 15 years is not a bad thing (but not a good thing either). By the way, we never even went to our section (325). We sat as close to the field as possible. Seats that were way more then the $15 I paid for. Have a good time in Tampa and let us know if there were thousands of fans in Tampa wearing Orioles shirts.

Well, tonight I am going to Arlington, Texas to watch the last place Saint Louis Cardinals take on the first place Texas Rangers. Adam Wainwright is taking the mound for the Cardinals (one of my favorite players). However, I will be wearing my red Yadier Molina jersey to the game. It's been a few years since the Cardinals last came to Texas to play the Rangers. I bought the least expensive tickets available ($15) but I have no plan to sit in those seats. Once I am in the ballpark, I plan on finding the best empty seats I can find and sit there. I've done it hundreds of times at baseball games and concerts. I've never had any problems doing this. As for the games on Tuesday and Wednesday nights, I can watch them on the local Texas Rangers channel. Anyways, Go Cardinals!!!

Nice picture and jersey, Rick. I just read (according to the internet), the 25 most annoying fans in professional sports. The New York Yankees, the Saint Louis Cardinals, the Boston Red Sox, the Houston Astros and the Chicago Cubs are the only baseball teams that made the list. I can see and agree with all four teams but not my Saint Louis Cardinals. I can rest assured that I have nothing to do with this. Passionate yes, annoying no, although I can probably guess that there may be a couple (or more) here that would disagree with me. All I ask is this: how is loyalty to one's favorite team an annoyance? Anyways, Go Cardinals!!! Edited to add: I believe that someone with no sense of humor would ever post something like this that somewhat seems to disparage their favorite team. Me, I have a great sense of humor, therefore I have no qualms about posting something like this. I find it amusing.

Hey Paul. I know the Mets are your team but from what I read from your posts, you seem to view them in a not so positive light. I say never give up on your team no matter what the situation. My Cardinals are a perfect example. As of today, they are 19-26. Your Mets are 22-23. I'm sure you have seen a few of my posts in the recent past and I have said that despite the Saint Louis Cardinals worst start to a season in 50 years, I have not (and never will) given up hope that things will turn around for the better. If they don't, they don't. However, I am and will always be a strong supporter of the Saint Louis Cardinals regardless of the final outcome for this season (or any season for that matter). My point: Stay Positive!!! Until the Mets play the Cardinals.

It does seem like the Cardinals have found their stride on offense. 18-1 against the Brewers on Monday and 16-8 against the Dodgers last night. 7 homeruns at Busch last night (4 in the 3rd inning). 2 by Willson Contreras, 2 by Nolan Gorman and 1 by Arenado. As I mentioned before, it was not the Cardinals lineup that I was concerned about, yes, it was the pitching. I watched the game last night on the MLB Network and they had mentioned the Cardinals have had 11 blown saves so far this season. So, yes, it is the pitching. Wainwright got the win last night but was taken out and the middle reliever gave up a grand slam to Freeman. Made the game 8-9 until the Cards scored 7 in the bottom of the 8th. Wainwright has 196 career wins and is hoping to end his career with the Cardinals with 200+ wins. I'm not sure who is a top pitcher is for the Cardinals to trade for come the trade deadline, but I am sure they are looking. You probably know more about that than I do. How about the Cardinals trade for Means? I do not know anything about him, but you always seem to praise him highly.

The Cardinals got lucky last night with an 18-1 win over the Brewers. Now the Cardinals are on a real winning streak at 4 games. This is the Saint Louis Cardinals that I and their millions of fans expect. Goldschmidt and Arenado are hot at the moment. I hope it continues...

Yes, you do. Yes, you are. The Cardinals are coming to Arlington, Texas to play the Rangers next month, June 5th, 6th and 7th. I am going to go to at least one of those games. Possibly two. Regardless of the Cardinals record at that time, I will be wearing one of a myriad of my Saint Louis Cardinals t-shirts or my Molina jersey. It has been a few years since the Cardinals came to Texas to play the Rangers. Good luck and have fun seeing the Orioles in Tampa.
