David Freese can drive a baseball, but driving cars can still be a challenge. The Cardinals third basemen crashed his car Thursday while trying to avoid a deer. It’s his third accident over the last few years, but this crash didn’t involved alcohol and luckily Freese was unharmed.
Freese, 29, was heading south on Wildhorse Creek Road near Rieger Road in Wildwood when he crashed his 2011 black Range Rover into a tree to avoid a deer, said St.

The Cardinals Choked
Not much to say about a three games as shitty as that, which is good, because we sure the hell don’t feel like writing much about it.
There’s no question the Cardinals choked this one away with their horrible…well, everything. The question is: Where does this sit in the pantheon of all time Cardinal chokes? We asked. You answered.
The consensus? This was horrible. Now if you’ll excuse us, we need to go shave this playoff beard.

Once Again in the Absence of Anything to Talk About, Local News Points the Camera at Grass
What do local news reporters turn to when they need a story, but nothing’s going on in our fair city? Time and time again, they turn to grass. No, that’s not even being used as a term for marijuana…the horrible truth is we’re actually talking about grass. A news story about grass. Seriously. Again. You local news people are horrible. Can’t imagine why everyone but old and retarded people think your broadcasts suck.

Washington Wizards Bradley Beal Gets Twitter Threats For Being Pro-Cardinals
The young guard for the Washingon Wizards, Bradley Beal, wasn’t even watching the Cardinals game Friday night when they were coming back on a stunned Nationals teams and their fans, but when we saw the Cardinals won he reached for Twitter. He is from St. Louis after all.
STL turnupppp !!!
…I guess that’s means something to the effect of “I’m happy the Cardinals won.” because that’s how most of Washington-area fans took it, and it did not go over particularly well.

The Morning After the Cardinals Crushed the Nationals in Game 5
Since there’s no way we were sleeping last night, we scoured the web for stuff to read about the latest Cardinals dramatic comeback.

Here’s our mediocre attempt at Photoshoping his Twitter stream in a fun Facebook-sharable image: Here’s the column rundown on the Cardinals win (and Nationals crushing defeat):

Here’s a better description from ESPN:
Erasing an early six-run hole in Game 5 slowly but surely, the defending World Series champion Cardinals got a tying two-out, two-run single from Daniel Descalso and a go-ahead two-run single from Pete Kozma in the ninth inning and came all the way back to beat the Washington Nationals 9-7 on Friday night and win their NL Division Series.

Congrats Cardinals For Being “Wildcard” Champs (or whatever)
First off, well done Cardinals on making it past the Wild Card game and in to the NLDS! This new Wild Card game sure is fun! We hear it’s super popular in Atlanta right now. (Kidding. Even with the Cardinals winning, this game is stupid.)
For some reason we think it’s important to leave this link here to the definition of the infield fly rule. It’s really not that hard to understand.

Cardinals Prospect Shelby Miller is Drunk, Stupid or Both
What is going on here with Cardinals starting pitching prospect Shelby Miller’s Saturday evening tweet? Is it a riddle? Is he really asking whatever he’s trying to ask? Is he trying to say ‘iPhone’? Is little Timmy in trouble by the old mill?!
