Conditioned by the beancounter era after Gussie died?

Conditioned by the football Cardinals & William V. Bidwill?

I just read that thread. Sounds like it's some sort of STL sports radio news. Unless it's the Cards going back to KMOX, I don't think I'll care.

I'd love to hear cards games will be on 101.1 ESPN. My mp3 player only has fm.

It probably is news about two radio stations joining together, a mix up of shows on radio stations or the announcement of which channel the Cards games are gonna be on next year. Or Slaten gets fired.

Yes, this was actually put on the website.

http://www.stltoday.com/news/local/colu ... 0e4d5.html

Nice little excerpt from the end of the article.
But all that hardly matters. If the Cardinals want to avoid a huge distraction next year and get something while they can, the team has to trade Pujols now.

Who could they get?

Carlos Zambrano is a possibility.

The Cardinals need pitching. Brad Penny and Kyle Lohse are on the disabled list and might never come back. It remains to be seen how rookie Jaime Garcia will do his second time around the league. Pitching coach Dave Duncan might be the guy who finally gets Zambrano to fulfill his promise.

Plus, Zambrano brings a fiery presence to a laid-back clubhouse.

Pujols for Zambrano. It makes a lot more sense than hiring Mark McGwire as a hitting coach.

Trust me on this, Cardinals fans. You're too close to the situation to see it clearly.

O MAN HOLY [expletive] LETS GET THIS DONE WALT I MEAN MO LIGHT SOME FIYAHHHH UNDA THEY ASSESSSSS YEEEEEEEEAH /Howard Dean voice

Zambrano ! For Pujols ! It's the awesomest trade of all time, guys!



/edit Oh, jeez, you didn't say it's McLellan. He's been an awesome Post-Dispatch contributor for like 30 years, and has always been a Cubs fan. I have met him. He's great.

I guess it's a marker of how bad the stltoday/P-D commentators can be that I actually thought someone proposed that. Then again, I'm quite gullible at 3:20 am.
