yeah, when the brew crew swept the deadbirds at home the writing was on the wall. Lost today to L.A. in a close one.

Congratulations on the two month mark Christa! You got this quit!

NOPE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

NOPE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great stuff! Niekro was great and beat the crap out my Cardinals enough times. Not only pitched great but could field his position and hit. And that other thing pitchers can`t do anymore, give me a minute and I will recall it. Oh yes, they called it BUNTING.

NOPE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Boo, did you ever here what Bob Uecker said when asked the best way to catch Phil Nierko`s knucleball? Wait till it stops rolling and then pick it up. Go Brewers!

NOPE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well I am hoping for a better game tonight between the Yankees and Red Sox. I guess I am for the Yankees because I want more baseball and I don`t have to work tomorrow. Also, Boston swept us 4 to zip in 2004. Well, they just went up 1-0. J.D. Martinez sac. fly. Wish we could have kept him in Phoenix.

Hate the shift. Over used but I guess the sabermetrics call for it. Not as much hitting to the other field these days or bunting. I am starting to sound like an old man that misses the game of his youth. That`s baseball. The Ty Cobb vs Babe Ruth thing. It is still a great game like no other.

Your doing great and stick close to the board. This will get better. Beat back the crave and your stronger and wiser the next time it comes around. Great going time4change and keep a positive attitude. YOU CAN DO THIS!

Yes, I agree with that. When you look at the season Tampa Bay had and finished in 3rd place 18 games behind that says a lot. I still prefer the NL although except for the DH the game is not played that differently anymore. Loved my running Redbirds of the 80`s but them days long gone in St. Louis. I think they only hit 9 triples as a team this year.

NOPE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dodgers and the Brew Crew. That`s an easy one for me. Would have liked to see the Braves advance. Should be a really good team again next year for you Brave fans.

NOPE!!!!!!!!

Brew Crew looking good. Gonna pull for the Braves tonight. Like to see them keep this going.

Welcome aboard time4change! I also smoked for a long time and quit cold turkey. Rozuki is on the money about staying close here and reading all you can. It has really helped me through tough times. You can do this. Just one day at a time. Lots of help here when you need it. Best wishes.

NOPE!!!!!!!!!!

Very well done Parsley! You beat the crave back and you will be stronger the next time the addiction or nicodemon raises it`s ugly head. Lots of battles won end up making you strong and the war is won. Way to go!

NOPE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dislike the Yankees. As a young kid (I`m 68) growing up in Cardinal company they were my favorite American League team. I was a middle infielder and thought Bobby Richardson and Tom Tresh were so cool! All this changed in 1964. Despite a friendship of my Grandmother with a relation of Bob (Bullitt Bob) Turley from Troy,IL I had to choose between my Cardinals and my Yankees who always won the American League pennant. As luck would have it, my Dad got two tickets for game 6 in St. Louis from a friend of a friend who knew Terry Moore (great center fielder from the great Cardinal teams mid 1940`s). Seats right behind the Yankee dugout. All my former heroes so close. It was tough for a 14 year old but it is such a great memory. Maris,Mantle,Elston Howard, I even think Yogi was still there. Well, Cardinals had a 3 game to 2 lead but lost that day. With my brother ( God rest his soul) we went outside and got a bus back to E. St. Louis. I really don`t know if I was sad that the Cardinals lost or happy the Yankees hung in there. Confusing time. More to come in a few years but I`m a Cardinal and will always be. Born and raised on Redbird baseball and a few Bud`s. 1964 was the last year of the great Yankee domination of the American League but as a side note for you baseball folks, the Yanks only lost the pennant twice in those years and I think Al Lopez was the manager of both the Cleveland Indians and the Chicago White Sox that beat the Yanks. I think it was Jim Bouton`s book "Ball Four" that talked about Lopez freezing the baseball`s the home team supplied to the umpire. Love these kind of baseball stories. It is our game.

Yes, sorry johnny5 that the Cubs lost. Being a St. Louis Cardinal fan I`ve always rooted for the Cubs when not playing the Cards. They will be back and you got to love the N.L Central division. Think it is the best in the N.L.

NOPE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Congratulations on your 3 year quit and thanks for all your support over the years. Best wishes.
