Purity Of Cardinal Way Being Polluted By Outsiders, Says Ridiculous Column
The St. Louis Cardinals have missed the playoffs for two consecutive seasons now. Some might say this is because they’ve become a middling NL team in both offense and pitching, and that an infusion of talent might propel them upwards from those low-to-mid-80s win totals, where they will probably nee...
Rick Pitino And Tom Jurich Made Ungodly Amounts Of Money While Louisville Athletics Suffered
In August, Louisville athletic director Tom Jurich announced an apparel partnership with Adidas that would net the athletic department $160 million over 10 years when it starts on July 1, 2018.

Kentucky Governor On NCAA Scandal: Pay The Players Already

Rick Pitino Releases Statement Right As Louisville Announces His Replacement

Louisville Has Now Lost Their Two Top Recruits

Report: Louisville Fires Rick Pitino After One Too Many Scandals

Lamar Jackson Threw Away His Shot
If it’s possible for a reigning Heisman winner to fly under the radar, that’s what Louisville’s Lamar Jackson was doing at the beginning of this season.

Cubs Battery Lose Their Minds Over Blown Strike Three Call
The call that got John Lackey going was a really, really bad one. With the count 2-2 against Carlos Martinez in the top of the fifth inning, Lackey threw a breaking pitch that sailed right over the middle of the plate. Catcher Wilson Contreras did a bad job framing it up, but it was a strike. Even M...

St. Louis Cat Nonprofit To Cards: Bullying Us Over Rally Cat Is "Inconsistent With The Cardinals Way"
Yesterday, we brought you an update on the Cardinals’ arrogant claim to the cat that ran across their stadium field last week.
