Pfffft. You Don’t Mean That Johnny Damon!

 Posted on August 25, 2010  |  The Editor

“I love Detroit.” That was former Kansas City Royal, Oakland Athletic, Boston Red Sox, New York Yankee and current Detroit Tiger Johnny Damon ****yesterday after turning down a chance to be traded back to the Boston Red Sox team he helped bring a World Series Championship to in 2004 after sweeping the Car…ugh. Blockquote to break the painful memory anyone? The Red Sox claimed Damon on waivers this week, but he had the right to veto a move to Boston because of a no-trade clause in his contract. [Read More]

Brandon Phillips Calls Cardinals Little Bitches

 Posted on August 10, 2010  |  The Editor

Cincinnati Reds’ Second Baseman Brandon Phillips got a little nicked up playing the Cubs recently, but when asked if he would ok for the big Cardinals series Phillips had this to say (according to daytondailynews.com): “I’d play against these guys with one leg. We have to beat these guys. I hate the Cardinals. All they do is bitch and moan about everything, all of them, they’re little bitches, all of ‘em. [Read More]

The Reds Are the New Cardinals: Jim Edmonds Acquired by Reds

 Posted on August 9, 2010  |  The Editor

According to the Cincinnati Reds’ Twitter feed, they have just acquired former Cardinal Jim Edmonds. This move continues ex-Cardinal GM Walt Jockety’s quest to rebuild his old Cardinal team in Cincinnati that currently includes Scott Rolen, Jason Isringhausen, Russ Springer and Miguel Cairo. We hear a waiver deal possibly involving Fred Bird is next, but until then expect an Edmonds appearance later on in the upcoming series vs the Reds. [Read More]

Jesus Dude. Damn! Come on Cardinals.

Aaron “I’m horrible but plucky” Miles manning third base? Randy Winn?! The Astros have nothing. They should be the ones playing Randy Winn and Miles! Oh did you miss the game? It didn’t go well. This is how I will sum it up for you: Aaron. Miles. Pitching. 18-4 Astros. The Cardinals are freaking terrible. Yes, we are right there atop the division, but so what? Are the playoffs really that cool when you just get blasted out of them right when you walk in? [Read More]

Cubs Epic Suckiness Finally Forces Lou Piniella to Retire

 Posted on July 21, 2010  |  The Editor

The Cubs are horrible even when they should be good, but managed to do what many teams haven’t been able to do: Take the fun out of the game for Lou Piniella, as “Sweet” Lou announced that this season will be his last as a major league manager, retiring after 18 years as a player and 22 as a manager. “It’s been a wonderful experience,” he said. “There’s no way that I won’t cherish the memories here.

The Reds’ First Baseman Joey Votto Hates the Cubs

 Posted on July 16, 2010  |  The Editor

If we lose Pujols after next season LeBron-style, we should totally go get the Reds’ Joey Votto to hold down first base. Not only can the guy hit (actually having a better season thus far than the Mang himself.) but he totally hates the Cubs. No not like “Oh you rascal! I hate you.” and then see them chatting it up on the field during BP, but like telling ESPN he hates them. [Read More]

Matt Holliday Doesn’t Get Out of First Round, but Nets Longest Jack

 Posted on July 13, 2010  |  The Editor

So no Home Run Derby title for our own Matt Holliday but all is not lost. He wasn’t one of those losers to get nothing over the wall…and he got more than one (well played Chris”Why Am I Here?” Young). In Matty H. just missed the cut to the next round by 2 jacks. Despite his early exit, at least Holliday can hang is hat on having the single longest bomb of the night at 497 feet. [Read More]

The Cardinals Are Horrible

 Posted on July 9, 2010  |  The Editor

Its not just the bullpen, or the starting pitching, defense or hitting…its everything. The Cardinals suck. Oh we’re only a few games out of first, and we certainly aren’t the Pirates, but for the St. Louis Cardinals, they suck. With this much talent they should be running over people but they aren’t. Its not they don’t have the talent they thought…its just that they flat out aren’t playing well. …so the question must be asked: Is this it for Tony LaRussa? [Read More]

Kansas City: Oh So Now You Have to Have a All-Star Game Too?

 Posted on June 15, 2010  |  The Editor

Kansas City, St. Louis’ little annoying sibling, just has to do everything we do. First we were like “It would be awesome if our football team was really terrible.” and then Kansas City thought that was awesome, so now the Chiefs suck, and now after our All-Star game last year Kansas City wants one of those too. Commissioner Bud Selig will be in Kansas City on Wednesday to formally award the 2012 All-Star Game to the Royals and Kauffman Stadium. [Read More]

Hey Aaron Miles! Got Any More Suck We Need to Carry In? Oh, Jeff Suppan’s Bringing the Rest? Great.

 Posted on June 11, 2010  |  The Editor

Oh man, we are so going to win the 2006 World Series again! Jeff Suppan is coming back to the St. Louis Cardinals. He will be joining the team in Phoenix and hopes to be active early next week. Oh yeah, Jeff Suppan, we remember him. The guy that Fox Sports Midwest dated exclusively for the three years he was here last. Every stupid little piece before the games was either about Jeff Suppan or included Jeff Suppan as we followed him go do something hilarious, like doing a regular person’s job. [Read More]
