"Baseball is a leisurely game that demands blinding speed, and the only one in which the defense has the ball. It follows the seasons, beginning each year with the fond expectancy of springtime and ending with the hard facts of autumn . . . ...It is a haunted game in which every player is measured against the ghosts of all who have gone before. Most of all it is about time and timelessness, speed and grace, failure and loss, imperishable hope--and coming home." Unknown-in K Burns Baseball
I wish I spoke Spanish. Still, the Astros announcers are my favorite.

I've been a Cards/MLB fan all of my life. I've grown more and more frustrated with the state of MLB. The way Bud Selig is contiually blind-sided by problems obvious to everyone else---steroids, tied All-Star Games, noon playoff games, roof issues. Does he anticipate anything? Does he even look both ways before crossing the street? Here, we give baseball and the Cards the respect they deserve. With or without Bud.
