Latest news is that Rush Limbaugh is trying to buy the Rams.

Arkansas beat A&M, and OU lost to Miami.

My joy is complete. 

Boy, I am sooooo glad they pulled Waino in the 7th. I mean, he gave up 2 singles! If he'd stayed in, he might have given up 6 runs or something!

Wainwright will probably win the Cy Young.  He has pitched for more than 200 innings, has more wins, and more strikeouts.

How many Grand Slams did he hit? 

When they decided to get off the stick, they did it with style!

Any more questions about the 2009 Cy Young winner?

Wow, Rube... that's special!

I met and talked with Shad, but I never had my picture made with him. I admit being a little snobbish, because the "blacksmith shop" was cranking out aluminum castings, rather than real iron works. (Still does, from what I could tell on our June visit.)

I haven't gone over the recent box scores in detail, but it seem like these recent losses have been from giving up 1or 2 big innings early on, and then never answering in kind.

Apparently, having clinched with 90 wins, they're determined to stay there. 

Welcome, Avis. 

[fan]

Being married to a Cubs congenital raving loonyfan, I've come to appreciate the baby bears and their poor fans. I love the rivalry, but a good rivalry only counts when teams are closely matched. That's why, unless they're playing each other, or the Cub are ahead of the Cards, I cheer on the Cubs too.

I love this thread. 

Agreed. It should be all year long!

Sure, have something extra-special that weekend, but make all of 2010 the year to celebrate.

[Central Division]

The St. Louis Cardinals are 2009's National League Champions!

Make that the 2009 NL Central Division Champions. We won't award the NL pennant until the playoffs. 

Key points: the Cards are the first MLB team to clinch. They have now won the division 6 times in this decade. Wainwright is the first NL pitcher this year to hit 19 wins. He struck out 10+ in two straight starts, the first Card to do so since Rick Ankiel in 2000 (remember when Ankiel was a pitcher?!?). This is the first time we've hit 90 wins since '05, and the first trip to the post season since winning the Series in '06.

Goooooooooo Cards!

Rockies walk-off and Cubs win leaves us stuck. 

(Even though I love Albert, Ozzie is my all-time favorite Cardinal. I'm still ticked that they let Eckstein get away, because I thought he was the next Ozzie.)
