Halfway through their regular-season schedule, the Blues are 23-11-5 for a .671 points percentage that ranks ninth overall and third in the Western Conference. As I review at midterm, there are no credible complaints on file. How can anyone be disappointed in what the...
BERNIE BITS Happy Friday! A lot of Cardinal-related material here; during the insanely-timed lockout led by the worst MLB commissioner in modern times, I’m just trying to do my share in the mission to keep baseball alive in St. Louis… 1) When we express our...
