BLS postseason entrance exam: St. Louis Cardinals →
Everything about this article is perfect and quotable.
In one month, where do you see yourself? Riding a big old fat Clydesdale down Market Street with a bottle of Bud in one hand and a middle finger to the rest of Major League Baseball. Suck an egg New York. Get lost Boston. Munch on this cheesesteak, Philly. Albert Pujols is the greatest hitter in the history of the game and his destiny is not...

Meyer smiled and said, “It’s great to be a Florida Gator.”
Tebow smiled, winked at his coach and replied, “It’s great to be a Gator.”
What a bunch of horseshit. Meyer actually said something like, “Are you alright, Tim?” And Tim replied, “I banana heart your orange shoelace.” He is mortal and he got his clock cleaned.
Just like the Catholic...

College GameDay... Week... I don't even know...
You all know by now this isn’t one of those blogs where I’m going to be consistent and give you my picks each week. I mean, really. Who has time for that? Not me.
However, Florida is travelling to Kentucky today and I think the Gators have a really good chance of losing. Kentucky is one of those teams has a tendency to come out of nowhere and turn out a lot of pressure. And if...

Not exactly what I had in mind.
Tony isn’t going to let them celebrate tonight regardless so we might as well just keep waiting.
Also, Ankiel would have made that play at home. I’m just sayin’.
Home Run Ludwick!

Gamecocks' upset of Rebels proves pollsters,... →
COLUMBIA, S.C. — Ole Miss isn’t a great football team. Ole Miss isn’t even a very good football team. So what is Ole Miss? I’ll tell you. Ole Miss is an example of the dangers of groupthink and greatness-by-association. Ole Miss football represents many of the evils that plague society.
I have nothing to add to this, except I told you so.
Cubs Win.
Until tomorrow…

I forgot college football was on tonight. This is a good opportunity for the nation to see how overrated Ole Miss reallly is this season.

Notice of Non-Celebratory Activity
Just a reminder that even if the Cardinals clinch tonight, the celebration will not be this evening.
Because Tony La Russa said so.
Carry on.

Sporting News' MLB Athlete of the Decade: Albert... →
No muss, no fuss, no drama—and no longer much debate about who is the best player in baseball. For much of the decade, the debate focused on Rodriguez and Barry Bonds. But in nine seasons, Pujols has never not surpassed a .300 average, 30 home runs and 100 RBIs. Those Hall of Fame numbers (by age 29) define him only slightly more than his all-around pursuit of excellence.

Will tonight be the night? →
THE STAKES: The Cardinals are exploiting Houston’s cozy ballpark to get their inconsistent offense going again. After scoring just 11 runs in their previous five games, they scored 18 times in two games against the Astros.
That is a welcome development. So is the reduction of their magic number, which now stands at two. The Cards are about to clinch the National League Central title. Once that is...

Cards void contract with Wagner Mateo →
Mateo’s contract was contingent on a physical exam. Results of the physical exam discovered pre-existing injuries and physical defects that led to today’s decision by the club.
