How To Go From Losing To Champs In One Easy Kick

((HT: Sky Sports)) And for that, the HQ takes you to League One for the season-ender between Doncaster Rovers and Brentford... Brentford had a chance to make sure they were promoted outright and didn't have to go through the League One elimination playoffs to worry about it. Clayton Donaldson was taken down in the box, and that left it all up to on-loan Fulham striker...

Want To Waste Your Day Away?

Gimme a name. Mark Whiten?  Your browser does not support iframes. And BOOM. Here's a Bob Costas clip that features the classic 4 HR game a call by Jack Buck AND Joe...

RIP Ernie Hays

Longtime St. Louis Cardinals organist Ernie Hays passed away at the age of 77 late last night.  He tickled the ivory for the Blues, Rams and the football Cardinals and served as the main organist at Busch Stadium between 1971 and 2010, when he retired.  Undoubtedly, for those that consider Jack Buck as the voice of [...]

Wiber: Chris Carpenter deserves a statue outside of Busch Stadium

Stan Musial, Bob Gibson, Ozzie Smith, Jack Buck, and a few others have statues in front of Busch Stadium.  I believe the St. Louis Cardinals organization does a fine job, in not just building anyone a statue. We all believe that the next statue erected would have been Albert Pujols, if he wouldn’t have left for the money in Los Angeles.  I am here to tell you who will be...

Superman and routines: A tribute to Buck and Kile

A lot of great stories have been written this week in remembrance of ten years since the passing of Jack Buck and Darryl Kile. Here is my attempt to pay them homage and honor these two great men, as well as the 2002 St. Louis Cardinals that fought on bravely the rest of that season. I like routines. Baseball makes great fans of those who like routines. There is a game nearly everyday...

The Long Lasting Memory of Jack Buck’s Common Touch

  One of the most resounding memories of both my childhood, and now my life, is hearing Jack Buck elegantly call a baseball game. Now, on the sad occasion of the tenth year coming to pass without Jack anymore, it occurs to me that he is a rarity of the most uncommon type. In many [...]

I miss Jack

“I miss Jack Buck”. Still to this day, those words are the one’s I feel define my writing.  An article I wrote for the now closed Baseball Digest site took that theme.  It was in Spring Training and I realized the game just did not sound the same.  That article, more than any other, has shown my heart and soul towards this game on every level.  Read my thoughts on Jack...

Bob Uecker to be honored with statue in Milawukee

Few announcers in sports can have a distinguished enough career with one team where they can resonate with several generations of fans.  Fewer announcers have the honor of being immortalized with a statue at their team's ballpark.  Haray Caray, Ernie Harwell, and Jack Buck are a few of the all-time great announcers to be placed in this category.  You can add one more to...

Dan McLaughlin Is Back. But To Stay?

So... Dan McLaughlin has taken his lumps on this site over the years. In retrospect, it was probably his daily association with Al Hrabosky that made Dan an easy target. The duo were unabashed homers, even when some criticism was warranted. Nothing was more infuriating that watching the Cardinals piss away another win and have 2 guys make excuses when all we wanted was some BLOOD...

Physioc excited for new role with Royals

Much of the attention so far regarding the Royals' new broadcasting lineup has focused on colorful analyst Rex Wonder Dog Hudler. Sitting somewhat quietly in the background has been the other addition to the Royals' broadcasting team play-by-play man Steve Physioc. And that's all just fine with Physioc. Rex should be getting the attention, Physioc told me by phone...

Harvey’s Version

My dad’s one of those people who scans the Paid Death Notices in the Times to see if anybody he knows has recently become somebody he knew. He was surprised to discover his cousin Harvey was among the listings two Sundays ago. He died at 81 on January 4…or to put it in terms Harvey would have appreciated, between the Giants beating the Cowboys to win the NFC East and the Giants...
