Rookies To Root For

By Roger | April 26th, 2010

At the top of my list of NFL rookies for whom I am rooting is Toby Gerhart now of the Minnesota Vikings.  It is good to see an NFL team which values having more than one high quality running back in the backfield, and Gerhart is a guy who will get the most out of [...]

Rams Snoozing Offseason Hurts During Draft Days

By Roger | April 23rd, 2010

While it is a good move for the Rams to add Sam Bradford like they did last night, it is a shame that the Rams have essentially ignored most of their needs during the offseason up until this point.  For example, the Rams would not need to draft an RB at all if they have [...]

Wainwright Trade/Contract Looking Great

By Roger | April 19th, 2010

On December 14, 2003, when the Cards acquired Jason Marquis, Ray King, and Adam Wainwright from the Braves for JD Drew and Eli Marrero, one scout’s opinion of Adam Wainwright at the time was that Wainwright had a chance to become a solid “no. 2 or no. 3 starter.”  Upon further review, many would agree [...]

The Marathon Game

By ExtraPointDJ | April 18th, 2010

How about the marathon game Saturday for the St. Louis Cardinals and New York Mets!  I only got to hear from the 13th inning on since the baseball team I coach had a tournament in Lebanon.  However, there are a number of observations I have from what I heard and the stats from the game.  [...]

Caller Tom Kicks Off Over Under Segment

By Roger | April 16th, 2010

Thanks for Caller Tom for bringing us breakfast today and kicking off our new Over Under segment.  He had some good over/under questions – Don, Arlington, and I agreed on a few and disagreed on a few. 
Congrats to Don’s baseball team he is managing.  Sounds like they have a terrific blend of talent and the [...]

Tuesday Tidbits

By Roger | April 13th, 2010

OK, so my prediction that Chad Campbell would win the Masters was slightly inaccurate!!  Later this week Don and I plan to debut Caller Tom’s idea of an Over Under segment predicting certain things.  Acquiring Adam Wainwright was one of Jocketty’s better deals.  Santonio Holmes for 12 games would be better than any current Rams WR [...]

Masters Sunday Log

By ExtraPointDJ | April 11th, 2010

Just got in from a great day of golf at The Falls Golf Club in O’Fallon, Missouri.  It is in great shape.  Now, I can watch some guys that actually know what they are doing with a club.  Here is a log of my thoughts while watching the drama unfold.
4:42 PM…Phil the risk-taker.  The shot he [...]

What a Friday!!

By ExtraPointDJ | April 10th, 2010

Isn’t it good to see another teams in the division have problems with their problem?  The game for the Cardinals Friday night was great in so many ways.  First of all, the Cardinals fell behind early, but they did not let the game get out of hand because of the great pitching by the bullpen, [...]

Wednesday Wonders

By Roger | April 7th, 2010

What will be Tony’s lineup tonight for the Cards versus the Reds?  Will Wainwright start quickly out of the gates and pitch very well like he did in 2009?  Exactly who will win the Masters this weekend – will Tiger be in the Top 10, Top 5, or even win it all after his long [...]
