  1. Well, I was correct with three of my Saint Louis Cardinals All-Star picks: Paul Goldschmidt, Nolan Arenado and Albert Pujols.  Add to that Miles Mikolas and Ryan Helsley for a total of five.  Not too bad for a team only .5 games behind the Brewers and with the sixth best record (so far) in the National League.  

    Arenado opted out of the All-Star game due to lower back soreness and to rest up for the second half of the season.  (A classy move if you ask me.  Arenado does not seek all the attention the All-Star game would bring.  He just wants to help the Cardinals do what they do best-Win).

    So, technically, four Cardinal All-Stars are in attendence for the All-Star game.

    Ronnie James Dio would have turned 80 years old today on July 10th, 2022.

    I just now saw your post.  I reside in Texas, however, if I lived in Los Angeles I would have definitely attended this momentous event.  Even if I was unable get in, I would have loved to have hung out with as many people who love Ronnie as much as I do.  My love for Him will never cease.

  3. Watching the end of the "Breaking Bad" marathon on AMC which segues into the beginning of the end (final six episodes) of "Better Call Saul".  

    I am eager to see how the show incorporates Walter and Jesse into these final episodes.

    Mods, can you please lock this thread? The calendar continues to be a challenge for some people. 

    It doesn't challenge me but I thought that your post was funny and definately correct.

  5. Hey Rick.  The Cardinals hit 4 consecutive home runs today in the top of the 1st inning against the Phillies.  Only the 11th time in MLB history that this feat has been accomplished.  Arenado, Gorman, Yepez and Dylan Carlson.  However, the Phillies came back to tie the game until Arenado hit another solo home run in the top of the 9th to win the game.

    The Cardinals lost yesterdays game to the Phillies but Arenado did hit for the cycle.

  6. Thanks to great playing by the Cardinals and the current 8 game losing streak by the Brewers, the Cardinals are now in first place in the NL Central.  

    As for the upcoming MLB All-Star game, the Cardinals, I believe, will have Paul Goldschmidt (1st base), Nolan Arenado (3rd base), Tommy Edman (SS) and Harrison Bader (CF) represent the Cardinals.  Possibly Yadier Molina (C), Adam Wainwright (P) and Albert Pujols (DH) as well.  Supposedly the final season for all three of these future (1st ballot) Hall of Famers.  Of course, with the All-Star game still 5 weeks away, anything is possible.

    To quote the late, great Dennis Green, I'm not ready to "crown" the Mets yet, but given the weak division & the manager we have now, we should keep going steady & then if things hold steady, I'll cross my fingers if we have to face the Dodgers, Giants or even the Brewers in October.... 

    ...or the Cardinals who just blew out the Pirates 18-4.

    Who the fuck are the Guardians?

    That's funny because I thought the same thing and I was going to post your exact same words a few days ago.

    So, the question remains the same, who the fuck are the Gaurdians?  

    By the way, are there any fans of the Guardians on this forum?

  10. Today is a sad day for fans of Mr. Ronnie James Dio as it was on this date, May 16, that Mr. Dio left this Earth 12 years ago in Houston, Texas.  Most of us fans of Dio already know all there is to know about him.  He is and will always be my second favorite singer.  Long Live DIO!!!

    I don't know if there's much in the way of bragging rights, but the Mets do host the Cards for the next 4 days & are looking to bounce back from losing their 1st series of the season....

    Tonights game has been postponed due to rain (I read).  Doubleheader tomorrow.  Should be a good series.

  12. Speaking of the Cardinals, tonights win marks 202 wins for Adam Wainright and Yadier Molina, the most in MLB history between a pitcher and catcher (for the same team).

    Two future first time ballot Hall of Famers.  All as proud Saint Louis Cardinals.

    Also, the debut of Albert Pujols as a pitcher who just happened to give up two home runs in the top of the 9th.  Unfortunately, no strikeouts.  Was fun to watch.  Even the Giants were laughing (in a positive way).

  13. As of this moment, the Cardinals are killing the Giants 11-0 in the top of the 6th.  Arenado, Goldschmidt and Molina have each homered.  Wainwright has only given up two hits so far.  Game is on ESPN.

    Edit to add:  make that 11-2.

    OMG!!  Orioles are at Cardinals!!!!!  OMG!!!  My birdies at Kings birdies.   Some Wainright pitching?  Never heard of the bum!!  LOL.  Go O's!!!!  Put hair on the wall.  My boys lost Means for the season and have won 6 of 9 and left the Red Sox sweeping the cellar.  Lets go O's!!!!

    It does seem rare that the Orioles and the Cardinals play each other either in Baltimore or Saint Louis.  Based on the recent records of both teams, I am going to say that the Cardinals should win this series.

    I just saw who is starting for the Cardinals, Packy Naughton.  As big of a Cardinals fan I am and always will be, who the Fuck is Packy Naughton?

    Good luck to both teams.  However, go Cardinals!!!

  15. Just finished the final episode of "Ozark".  Another great series up there with my usual favorites:  Sopranos, Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones, Homeland, Ray Donovan, etc...

    I highly recommend anyone who reads this to invest some time and watch any (or) all of these shows (time permitted, of course).  To me, it is (was) worth it.

  16. About to begin the 2nd season of "Boardwalk Empire".  I started watching it about 6 years ago but never got past season 2.  I am determined to finish it (5 seasons in all) in the next couple of weeks.  I have no idea how the series ends.  Great series so far.  I like the 'semi-historical' aspect of the show.  

  17. Adam Wainwright, Yadier Molina, Albert Pujols and the rest of the 2022 Saint Louis Cardinals.

    My prediction (as usual):

    The Saint Louis Cardinals will be the 2022 Major League Baseball World Series Champions.

    Good Luck to Everyone and their favorite Baseball Team(s).

    "Inventing Anna" on Netflix.  I am only on episode 3 of this 9 episode limited series.  Anna is played by the remarkable Julia Garner (the " Don't take no Shit from anyone" Ruth Langmore of the equally remarkable Netflix series, "Ozark").  

    The final 7 episodes of "Ozark" returns to Netflix on April 29, 2002.  Can't wait.

    Sorry, I meant 2022.  Still can't wait.

  19. "Inventing Anna" on Netflix.  I am only on episode 3 of this 9 episode limited series.  Anna is played by the remarkable Julia Garner (the " Don't take no Shit from anyone" Ruth Langmore of the equally remarkable Netflix series, "Ozark").

  20. On Albert Pujol's first game back (today) as a Saint Louis Cardinal, the Cardinals beat the Washington Nationals 29-8.  The Cardinals scored 15 runs in the top of the 8th inning.  Pretty amazing for any MLB team to score so many runs in one game.

    (I know that it is only a spring training game but nonetheless a pretty remarkable feat).
