Hard to believe she's gone

Busch Stadium is no more, at least the "old" Busch Stadium. The last section came down this past week in the snow and they are hauling away the final piles of rubble. The new Busch Stadium is being built in the same spot and is said to be a little over half way completed. It has been amazing to see them build the new stadium while tearing down the old one at the same time.

I am glad we got to see a game in the house that Ozzie Smith and Mark McGuire played in, though both were long gone before we moved here. We did get to witness Edmunds and Pujols at there best, and that was a cool thing. This game against Chicago featured a sweet finish with a couple of multi- run home runs by the Cards to beat our good neighbors the Cubs. For those of you in Alabama, Cardinals / Cubs fans get along almost as well as Alabama / Auburn fans do.

Well, this is finals week and I guess I have procrastinated long enough. Back to the books!
