dual personalities

From the official Cardinals website: “Are you looking to book Fredbird for your event? …You have three choices for your Fredbird appearance fees: 30 minutes for $150; 1 hour for $350; or 2 hours for $600. For any Fredbird appearance that is over 50 miles from Busch Stadium, please double the appearance fee. If you have any questions please call the Fredbird hotline at 314-345-9441.”

Clearly the fun never ends when Fredbird’s at the party.

Let’s hope that Fredbird can pump up the jam this week back in St. Louis and that those Fredbird-loving sisters can get the prayer hotline juiced! Go, Cards!

WE WON!!!!

The St. Louis Rally Squirrel and Ted Drewes frozen custard. We’re talkin’ baseball. Baseball in St. Lou…

Boy, St. Louis loves a come-back. Never have we been so excited about clinching a wild card spot in the play-offs!

The Cardinals last led their division July 25 and found themselves trailing the Braves by 10½ games for the wild card after being outscored by the Dodgers 24-7 during what appeared to be a ruinous August 22-24 series. Desperate to be excited about something, we are now calling ourselves “Wild card Champions”. Really. I’m sure a t-shirt will be available shortly.

P.S. Thank you, Atlanta, for the stunning collapse.
