    These kids are making mega money, so theoretically they are no longer kids. They have to make adult decisions and grow up sooner than they probably should, but that's the nature of this beast. If they are now employees, we can no longer coddle them, unfortunately, they have to grow up and be...

    There were rumors that if Coleman or Domask were to come back, we had donors outside of NIL to foot the bill?! Why don't these guys step up to help land players we need through the NIL system? I'm surprised that our basketball NIL pool is very average? We have a huge alumni association.

    St Louis Cardinals 2024

    Matz and a prospect for Glasnow makes sense. The asking price for Dylan Cease seems to be too much for me, even though he is controllable for a longer period of time and cheaper. I hate giving away someone like Gorman, with his potential and an everyday player for someone who plays every 5th...

    St Louis Cardinals 2023

    Most news outlets are insinuating that Tyler O'Neil being given the left field spot when he returns means Dylan Carlson will probably be traded. It sounds like Dylan was pretty dejected in his after the game interview a couple of nights ago. Having said that, if I were the Cardinals, wouldn't...

    St Louis Cardinals 2023

    As of last night, I believe we are sellers. I would even entertain a Goldschmidt trade for highly regarded pitching prospects. He's 35 years old and we will probably only get a couple more years of good Goldy.

    Illinois Football Uniforms

    Okay, here goes. I hate this color combination. Usain Bolt would look slow in this uniform. Even the white shoes don't help! And why are we neon orange? If I was in this locker room it would feel like a rave broke out with only slow guys invited. Plus, it reminds me too much of Syracuse...

    St Louis Cardinals 2023

    I read the last two posts and saw that you guys apparently had some disagreements. I won't go read the other posts, because I'm sure you are both wrong, lol. That's what's great about baseball. The conversations during the season and the hot stove league during the offseason. One thing we...

    Pretty mobile for being 6"6" and I think I saw a Nowitzki step back turn around jumper. She has a chance to be...should I say it...Elite!!!
