I bet he goes to a 3 chair barber shop.
yeh, it was only the Cardinal Hall of Fame, but still good players/coach. Cardinals lost today, i can't believe it - i can't believe you were banned for so little -

Can someone explain to me how Cards vs Cubs is considered a "rivalry"? The Cardinals have won 11 World Series titles, 19 National League Pennants and have been in the post season 27 times. The Cubs last won a World Series title 107 years ago.
it IS weird in the sense of competition. but even if the Cubs have a losing team they play the Cardinals tough. proximity also, it's only about 8 hours away, maybe less. two old franchises and the Cubs have had good teams over the years, just Bad Luck - fierce Hockey rivalrly also, but not Football. basically, location, division/conference and long history - 10 K's for Lackey today -

If you mean like 70 years ago then, yes, this is true.
The Cubs last reached the World Series in 1945. Then they went 39 years until their next postseason appearance in 1984. From 1984-2008 the Cubs reached the postseason six times, losing six of seven post season series. They had a 9-22 record in these seven postseason series. The Cubs actually beat the Braves in the 2003 NLDS, 3-2. This was the Cubs first postseason series WIN in 95 years.
5 hours away...and if the Cubs didn't sux the rivalry would be more intense. As it stands...............
my first instinct was 5 hrs but i thought that sounded too short. i have never been to Chicago. i know dozens of folks there through work and i have driven to peoria from st. louis in under 3 hours over 50 times. bloomington, pekin, decatur, springfield. East st.louis is my favorite. i really should go to Chicago and Wrigley -
True test coming...dismantled the NL central now going to play Det and KC soon. We'll see...............
yep, road trip. Cardinals have a couple injured also, but still find a way. they can't keep up this amazing win pct. all year. or can they ? -

Redbirds lose - i jinxed 'em
My Pirates executed a 4-3-4 Triple Play against your Redbirds last night.
It was the first 4-3-4 Triple Play ever recorded in the history of MLB.
i heard it, but i wasn't watching. it's pretty amazing when there is a FIRST EVER in the history of MLB. i have to catch the replay this morning. i though we had that game, and the Bucs battled back - :cheers:

Not according to this site:
http://tripleplays.sabr.org/tp_combo.htm
That is the official site of SABR, the Society for American Baseball Research, probably the most trusted baseball statisticians in the world. Granted, the previous two 4-3-4 triple plays occurred on May 13, 1876 and July 14, 1877, but it was the major leagues.

I used to be a Cardinal fan but not anymore. My team is the Blue Jays and in the NL it's The Nationals, who used to be the Expos. I have very fond memories of attending Expos games in the Big O years...decades ago.
My other favs are Seattle, San Diego and Kansas City. I'm kind partial to the Giants as well.
