10/20: 1-0 Cards...

Greetings all... let's check up on what's happening...
  • Cardinals 1-0... when Allen Craig's pinch-hit single landed about an inch short of Nelson Cruz in the 6th inning, it was pretty unlikely that 3-2 would be the final score, but it came to pass... the Cards got 3 shutout innings from 5 relievers and that was that... the Rangers will need better than 0-8 from Hamilton/Young to win games in this series, but the big blow is getting a subpar (5.2 IP, 3 ER) outing from Wilson... he wasn't a trainwreck, but never felt like he was in control...
  • Game 2 on Thursday... Garcia vs. Lewis... I like the Rangers here...
  • The NBA lockout mediation is going into the 3rd day... how ridiculous is it that this is the FIRST time both sides have spoken 3 days in a row?... how ridiculous was the 12-hour marathon negotiating session not happening until mid-to-late October?.... there's a reason I haven't posted any content on the lockout... I'm too angry to write coherently...
  • The Honey Badger... suspended?.... LSU's Tyrann Mathieu (aka the Honey Badger) suspended along with Spencer Ware for a positive marijuana test... that hurts LSU big-time but they should be able to beat Auburn at home without them...
  • Here's my opinion on the Carson Palmer deal for the Bengals... it was clear (however stubborn and stupid) that Mike Brown wasn't dealing Palmer for anything short of a steal... well, they got that steal, and that's a deal they absolutely have to make for a guy who never would take a snap for them again... easy choice...
  • Here's my opinion on the Carson Palmer deal for the Raiders.... ha... hahaha.... hahahahahaha.... a first rounder in 2012 and a 1st/2nd rounder in 2013 for a guy who could be washed up... There are no words...
That'll do it...
