At the same time, however, the Cardinals have been doing their best to keep the drama and suspense alive and well just about every [...]
Every time you find yourself pulled into this Cardinals team and this idea that they can be competitive, they do their best to push you back out. That was the case again last night. Coming home, facing a team well under .500 and stocked with names even Dan McLaughlin had trouble handling, this should have [...]

Man, I’m getting dizzy. The Cardinals have been on a roller coaster all season long, struggling with inconsistency. Just when it looked like we had found some momentum (thank you Rally Cat!) we follow up our winning streak with a three game losing streak. Fun. (Not really.)
