Every morning I wake up & smoke a dart. Then I eat five strips of bacon, & for lunch I eat a bacon sandwich. And for a midday snack? Bacon! A whole damn plate! And I usually drink my dinner. And I'm still here! Sometimes I wonder if God has forgotten about me.

Balls

Hope is the worst of all evils, for it prolongs the torment of man

All I've got is a broken heart, memories & dreams that I can't drink away

Out of the crooked timber of humanity, no straight thing can be made

Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars

I'm going to go try to find a puppy and kick it. - Brad Puppy Kicker Thompson

This just in the the news team news center, Adam Wainwright is awesome. Dude flat out shut down los gigantes tonight. it's a shame the umps screwed him out of a potential win. he really was the stopper the Cards needed him so desperately to be. at least DeRo seams to not be as hurt as we all feared. that's also some much needed good news.

Viva El Birdos Game 22 Post Game

That was a strange game. Pull up a chair, pour yourself a glass of your favorite beverage, and enjoy the sweet taste of victory. The last over flow was over 1000 post, so this is for everyone who's on a slow connection, or other issues like the poor folks who use IE. I'm trying to come up with 75 words, so uh,,,um,,,how was your day? How was work? How are the wife/husband/life partner/bed buddy/ and the kids? Seen any good movies lately? Heard any good music? How's the weather? River seams to be up. As anyone seen my shoes? Where are my shoes?

Viva El Birdos We're # 8!

how did this happen?

the Cardinals minor league system is #8 according to Baseball America.

so I asked the esteamed VEB readers, what does this ranking mean? i assume it's good right? it's shocking to me that just a few seasons ago they were 30th, and now suddenly they are 8th. according to the article it's not just Colby that's pulled the Cards out of the basement. but players like YP, Apple Sauce, Walrus & even the oft mentioned but realy seen Daryl Jones. is the Cards system this good, or is this simply an overreaction by the good folks at Baseball America?

Viva El Birdos And The Drama Contines

with all the diary restrictions i hope a topic about the new scotty rolen article by joe strauss is diary worthy. i said this at the end of yesterday's main page entry, so if you kill it lboros it wont hurt my feelings one bit.

scotty's officially on the trading block. gee, tell us something we didn't know joe.

http://www.stltoday.com/stltoday/sports/stories.nsf/cardinals/story/00B301FCAA429C6A8625739300169280 ?OpenDocument

actually its a good read with a lot of good stuff from MO. in short the Cards wont move scotty unless they get some team to pay him most of the $36Million he's owed. AND they get an equal return for scotty. quoting MO "Rolen and his agents have to understand what our return must be to even consider moving someone of Scott's talent."

so it sounds like unless they get a "star plyer" in return & get the team to pay most of scotty's salary, then he ain't going any where. translation? he ain't going any where.

which could be a bad thing considering he's really, really mad at Tony because Tony wrote him a letter telling scotty what he needed to do in order for him to be the player he once was.

tough cookies scotty. shut up & prove to every one you are healthy & able to produce like you used to be able to. then maybe the Cards can trade you. until then you aren't going any where.

i hope the $36 MILLION DAMN DOLLARS you are going to make over the next 3 years for being an overreated bench player will help you sleep at night.
