Wow. Rick Ankiel has an arm.
Two *incredible* throws to third tonight for put-outs in Denver, including one to get Tavares. Anyone else watching?

Sweet.

4. Yeah.. Having just moved to St. Louis, I've just learned about his whole story
Not being a huge baseball fan w/out a team to watch.

But b/c he was good enough to make it to the majors as a pitcher, his ability to track down balls, throw, run and show some power at plate, he has to be one of the better raw athletes in the game, eh?

3. It's hard to watch any sports these days.
Especially when our local teams have done so much... Hmm... What's the phrase I'm looking for here...?

Oh yes... MONUMENTAL SUCKING. x(

Wherever you are, it will get better.

6. Colorado.
It'll get better, but damn it's been a rough three weeks.

Nuggets, swept by the Lakers... Avalanche, swept by the Dead Wings... Rockies, falling all over themselves...

Not a lot of fun to be a Colorado sports fan right now, I tell ya!

7. Hey...sorry 'bout that then
I wouldn't even say I'm a big Cards fan, but starting to watch more closely. St. Louis caught y'all at a good time. But the Rockies had an amazing late run last year, eh? Bet you dug that.

Either way, if you didn't see these throws, catch 'em tonight on your late news.
