About

I am 22 years old and grew up in St. Louis all my life, growing up with Cardinals baseball and Blues hockey. I have now grown to love soccer as much as if not more than baseball. At one point I was a journalism major but now just call it a hobby.

Short List

  • Favorite Athletes

    Michael Ballack, Frank Lampard, Jozy Altidore, Dustin Pedroia, Cole Hamels, Joe Maur, any pure player in the sport is great to watch.

  • Favorite Sports Teams

    St. Louis Cardinals and Chelsea Blues

  • All-Time Sports Moment

    Watching the St. Louis Cardinals win the World Series

  • Most Memorable Game Attended

    First game a Old Busch Stadium at 9/11 and listening to Jack Buck's poem

  • Most Unbreakable Sports Record

    Cal Ripkin Jr's most consecutive games played

  • Ruth or Mays?

    Ruth made the game it is but Mays hepled open the game to so many people

  • Unitas or Montana?

    Montana

  • Jordan or Russell?

    Jordan

  • Gretzky or Orr?

    Gretzky

  • Pele or Maradona?

    Maradona

  • Federer or Sampras?

    Nadal

  • Tiger or Nicklaus?

    Tiger but I really do hate the guy

  • Petty or Earnhardt?

    Worst 'sport' ever...

  • ACC, Big 12, Big East, Big Ten, Pac-12 or SEC?

    Not a big college sport fan, I actually think it is the only thing supporting the NBA and NFL and without, the leagues would crumble.

    Michael, thanks for the comments, but I think you should consider some things that I have said.

    Nady is on the open market and is having a career year. He's finally reached his potential and is living up to the hype. Maddux isn't making a trade just to make a trade. He gives us a lot more than what Boggs would. Besides 350 career wins, he gives us postseason experience and a veteran arm with stretch experience. It's highly unlikely we would add him because he doesn't go deep as he once did, but his name is out there anyway as a 'Plan B.'

    Hudson is unlikely, but like I said on there, he could be dealt. He won't resign with Arizona, so they may cut their losses early, you never know. Same with Lopez. Seattle is throwing in the towel and may just want to blow up and rebuild and may not want to use Lopez as a rebuilding block. Highly unlikely, but possible.
