on espn before the game they were talking about how the cards and braves are two of the most fundamentally sound teams in the majors, then the braves proceded to make 4 straight errors/mental mistakes, and they showed a graphic that said the braves have the third most errors in the nl.

page 4 laughed

8/16/2004 3:49:25 PM

someone was telling me yesterday

the cards have the highest field %
the most quality starts
and the highest avg in the league
[not sure on all these facts]

but if it is true
we are the best fielding, pitching, and hitting team

w00t indeed

i'll say again

9/1/2004 9:23:22 AM

if Rolen goes on a little run in September, we could have three players to have 40+ HR, 100+ RBI and bat .300+


he's sitting at 31 right now

9/1/2004 9:28:16 AM

how we doing?

9/5/2004 12:02:35 AM

won 8 straight

today we got 5 runs on 2 hits to beat the dodgers (who got like 11 hits)
yesterday morris threw a two-hit shutout with 11 Ks
edmonds hit number 300 (40 on the year)
pujols had a hitting streak but i think that's over
ankiel's coming back
largest division lead since 1944
91 wins

basically, w00t.

[Edited on September 5, 2004 at 12:44 AM. Reason : .]

9/5/2004 12:37:19 AM

that 23-22 start seems like a loooong time ago

9/6/2004 4:29:43 PM

yeah, my roommate's a big BoSox fan, and he was bragging about how awesome their record has been for last month.

i punk'd him the Redbirds' records for the last 2 months.

he asked how we didn't have an even more astounding record than we do, and i had to explain that we were struggling to make .500 for the first month or two.

9/6/2004 5:30:11 PM

VOTE TONY

9/6/2004 6:37:57 PM

you can pwnt the nl central all you want but just dont forget everything goes out the window when the playoffs start

go cubs

9/6/2004 6:43:58 PM

hey don't worry lou

you'll be able to fall back on the curse, or some random fan in the foul section, when your boys don't make it in the playoffs....

9/6/2004 6:57:27 PM

so

anyone heard anything about rolen?

9/14/2004 11:47:50 PM

i don't like the way we've looked lately

it'll be tough to get 110 wins playing like this

9/15/2004 12:11:38 AM

i'm worried

i've been justifying it to myself by assuming tony is giving some less-used players more pt and experimenting with lineups.

but yeah, we have been hurting

[Edited on September 15, 2004 at 12:44 AM. Reason : because my justification has no basis in fact.]

9/15/2004 12:42:30 AM

screw 110 wins
i just want 4...

9/15/2004 8:06:33 AM

i forgot to put a after my last comment

9/15/2004 8:34:45 AM

clinched the central last night

9/19/2004 4:10:24 PM

so i was looking around the standings
and i found this tidbit

Quote :

"night games: 66-31 "

so as long as most of the playoff games are at night; should be in the clear

*fingers crossed for rest of season*

9/21/2004 1:46:26 PM

9/22/2004 4:02:09 PM

que?

9/22/2004 4:10:17 PM

damn red x

9/22/2004 4:42:29 PM

NOT AXL!!!

no really
wtf

9/22/2004 5:32:47 PM

wasn't it supposed to be Houston vs. Chicago for this division?

I think my dad was the only one who nailed it, but even he would admit the bias in his preseason prediction of a division title.

9/22/2004 5:41:07 PM

yeah
someone tried to come in here and call me bandwagon

but i started this thread when we wee gonna finish third or fourth...

your dad is core

9/22/2004 6:36:00 PM

jeff suppan= cy young






no seriously

9/24/2004 9:03:18 PM

because this belongs at the top

9/29/2004 2:54:16 PM

Red Birds are a power house this year. They have an awesome line-up and I think they are the best candidate for WS right now!

9/29/2004 3:22:07 PM

hell yeah n00b

9/29/2004 3:43:21 PM

Yeah they always show up a good season, but are choke artist when it comes to the post season, look, its already almost over and houston is rocking them.

9/29/2004 3:45:18 PM

9/29/2004 3:47:05 PM

My boys a cardinals fan, lets watch him cry when they lose again in the first round.

[Edited on September 29, 2004 at 4:05 PM. Reason : get em Pujols]

9/29/2004 4:05:06 PM

6-0 in the third inning!

10/5/2004 2:21:37 PM

wow, we're lookin VERY good

10/5/2004 2:43:00 PM

stupid work, preventing me from seeing the game

10/5/2004 2:53:39 PM

7-1 after 5

HR's from Albert, Jimmy, Larry and Mike

10/5/2004 3:00:40 PM

how did the dodgers score?

is their starter still in?

10/5/2004 4:17:39 PM

8-3
w00t gg redbirds

p.s. if it comes to yankees and cards in the series (and even if it doesn't) everyone should read halberstan's october 1964 about the last yankees-cardinals world series

tom wilson hit a bottom 9th 2-out solo hr off izzy
