About a month ago the roast of long-time Cardinals manager Tony LaRussa was announced and, shockingly, our name was left off the guest list! We roasted him anyway. Go internet! The actual roast took place last weekend though at the Annual Dinner of the St. Louis Chapter of Baseball Writers’ Association of America though you may know them as SLCOBWAOA. The “roaster roster” included Detroit Tigers manager Jim Leyland, broadcaster Mike Shannon, Fox2’s Martin Kilcoyne, actor Billy Bob Thornton, famed college basketball coach Bobby Knight, and former Cardinal Steve Kline.

We’re hearing talk of a Celebrity Roast of Tony LaRussa, everyone’s favorite/least favorite Cardinal manager. “We’ve love to roast Tony! We graciously accept your invitation.” …is what we would have said had it not got lost in the mail or something. No matter! We can roast him whenever we want with the power of the internet! What we would have said is below. Read that while we go search for weird porn (the other power of the internet). [Read More]

We gotta say St. Louis, we didn’t see many interesting costumes running around last Halloween. Sure there were the staples of Sexy Cat, Sexy Nurse, Sexy Bus Driver, Sexy Lunch Lady, Heath Ledger Joker… It’s not that we don’t like the “sexy” costumes…we love them! Keep it up ladies, you actually did pretty damn well last year. You keep on smushing up your boobs in to that nurse outfit, and us guys will keep drinking to help make the second teir ladies look first-string by 2am. [Read More]

When the disappointing 2010 season for the St. Louis Cardinals came to an end, Tony LaRussa packed most of his baseball knickknacks in to boxes, loaded them in to his car and drove home to California. He claimed he wanted to use the time to contemplate about the lost season and figure out if he still had the urge to manage the his 16th Cardinals team through the grueling 162-game season.

Found on Ebay while watching the Rams piss away another win-able game: “98 TONY BANKS ODYSSEY HOLOGOLD 1ST QTR /150 RARE” (link) Starting bid: $0.99 Current bid: No bids. $0.99 seems high for old Tony Banks.

It’s the only reason he got enough bids to get two bids and $1. [Read More]

“I made it clear when we were approached: I said, ‘If it’s political, I wouldn’t even approach Albert with it.’ I don’t want to be there if it’s political,” That’s Tony LaRussa talking last week about the rally in the nations capitol over the weekend put on by Glenn Beck and featuring Sarah Palin. Political? Maybe, maybe not. Controversial? No doubt about it. Beck’s rally has both ruffled feathers and drawn curious looks for its choice of date and guests, despite Beck’s claims that the point is only to restore the honor of stuff that most believe still had plenty of honor in the tank, and is saying any date-correlations are completely accidental (the day the rally takes place is the anniversary of Martin Luther King’s “I Have A Dream” speech).

That is all.

He has elf ears.

Now that’s all.

Step Brothers? As in… Two aimless middle-aged losers still living at home are forced against their will to become roommates when their parents get married. See? (move your lookin’ balls right) Its true, though still unbelievable. The only way to explain this is…well, there’s no way to explain this. Wait: weed. There, we explained it. Oh and Ron? It’s your face. And I, again, you know, you’re doing great, man. [Read More]

For a guy that only hit .199 for a 6 year major league career, he hit a home run on this one. Not liking that one? Here’s three more: Tony sure put his bat in the right place to make this hit! Nothing pisses of Tony more than a pitcher going for his guys, but I’d still take my chances going high and tight to her. Tony LaRussa has a hot daughter. [Read More]

Tony LaRussa doesn’t like to lose. We’ve heard good friends will be in town to have a meal with the man, and if the Cardinals loose that night, he won’t go. That’s mean, but that’s Tony. He can be a hard-nosed competitive, and frankly, mean guy some times. Hell look at him go at STLToday sports writer Bernie Miklasz. …and then he’ll go do something like this: …and we love every second of these moments. [Read More]
