St. Louis finally made a move to bring in a free agent to aid the bullpen although adding Matthew Liberatore to the rotation weakened the left side. Announcing a six-man turn further depleted the resources which made [...]

Most would agree that Opening Day for MLB should be a national holiday and while that’s not up for debate here, it’s this author’s view that the true start of the baseball season happens to be today! That’s right, all five St. Louis clubs (weather permitting) will be in action which means the Preacher is [...]

It is never easy to say goodbye. We aren’t programmed on how to do it and normally fail miserably in trying to get the words out. That’s why I always turn to writing, the only way to properly say what is going on in my brain. This last year was tough for all fans of [...]

We’ve reached the top of the mountain.  Before we get to the last accounts, a reminder.  When a person finishes number 1 in three different years, they are moved to the Cards Twitter Hall of Fame.  Those accounts are still on the ballot and will be reflected in here where they fall, but they don’t [...]

We’re in the top 10% of accounts now, at least compared to how many were on the list.  I think you’d agree that, no matter how long the list was, these would be close to the top.

Let’s do one last post before Santa makes it to North America, shall we?  These are the folks that just missed the top of the heap. The greatness of Pujols, though he doesn’t use his Twitter account much.  I mentioned how impressive it was that Anne Rogers still charted, but Jen Langosch does it better [...]

If you haven’t gotten your shopping done by now, why are you reading this silly post?  Get out of here!  But for the rest, here’s some more folks that deserve a little something for Christmas. You really should be following the musical styling of Jeremy.  The account for the excellent COD pod has migrated to [...]

Merry Christmas Eve!  We looked at the first 107 accounts yesterday and we’ll be looking at 75 more today, leaving the Top 25 for after Christmas.  So let’s get at it.  You’ve got better things to do, I’m sure.
