Monday Ramblin’s Return…

The Monday Ramblin’s have been on hiatus for the past couple of weeks as, you know, the Cardinals won the World Series and stuff. So we’re  back… 

The Cardinals managerial race is heading around the turn and should be completed in the next 7-10 days. It’s shaping up to be a Francona Vs Oquendo photo finish. But if I may, can I ask a question. Has anyone heard Jose Oquendo speak? I can’t recall a single interview with him on TV or radio. Ever. I legitimately couldn’t tell you what he sounds like and that’s, I guess, a bit concerning. I guess he wouldn’t have stuck around for all these years if he was an idiot, but having a microphone jammed in your face after every game is something you’ve got to deal with as a manager…

That was the most St. Louis Rams loss of all time. 2 safeties?  130 something yards on the ground. Some pretty good WR work for once. Lose by 6 in overtime. I said it last week, that win against New Orleans probably cost Spags his job at the end of the year. 0-8, well, it’s a terrible team with some serious injuries. Whip New Orleans? Now it’s pretty suspect when your team squats off an egg against another 1 win team…

Speaking of coaching changes – later Davis Payne. I don’t know enough hockey to tell you if the dude got a fair shake as the Blues head coach.  I do know that the Blues are have the best smoke and mirror job going. Probably in the history of sports. I swear, every single casual fan believes that the Blues are a young team, loaded with talent, on the come-up. But they’ve been the young team, loaded with talent, on the come-up for like 5 seasons now. No one likes to call them on this…

I kind of bet DeWitt is pissed he’s got to spend money to add another flag pole to the scoreboard in right field. I said they should have added two the last time and just had it empty as a reminder that we’re looking for another one. So feel free to do that this time. Us fans like crap like that…

It would be a place like Happy Valley that ends up being a child’s worst nightmare. I mean, Vince Lombardi pretty much sums up our feelings on the Penn State child sex scandal: LINK HERE

My favorite stat from the Mizzou move to the SEC? Prior to Missouri joining the SEC, the conference had 191 national championships in all combined sports. After Missouri joins the SEC, the conference will have 191 national championships in all combined sports. Personally, I can’t wait for my first road trip to Columbia to see 10K Kentucky fans in Missouri Arena and the few Tiger fans that showed up wondering what they got into…

I didn’t think this would be the case back in August. But I’m already ready for some more baseball…
