March 25, 2013 So here it was, Sunday afternoon and I was home watching the snow pile up and listening to the Cardinal game on KHMO from spring training in Jupiter, Florida. How weird was that?

I was listening to the radio the other day and the Queen song "Bicycle" came on.
February 6, 2013 His name is Christopher John Carpenter. He’s from Exeter, New Hampshire. He’s 6’6 and weighs 230 pounds and he pitched for the St. Louis Cardinals. His teammates simply call him “Carp”.
January 23, 2013 With the passing of legendary Stan Musial, a debate has arisen among some of my friends as to who is the greatest living St. Louis Cardinal? It has been interesting to read the emails I have received with the top three listed. Bob Gibson seems to be on top of the list of many.
According to the Associated Press the Chicago Cubs want to do a "complete renovation of the ballpark." That ball park is Wrigley Field. It's called the "Wrigley 20-14". Wrigley will be marking it's 100th year in 2014
