Looks like my flurry of Cardinals-related posts will continue through at least the first part of next week. Everyone seems pretty stoked about this rematch of the ’68 & ’34 Series. My good friend (and fellow Cards fan) Mike over at Ocular Fusion has a great post today about last night’s game and where he was in 1968.
But the Series isn’t the only big sporting event for me this weekend. It’s UT / Bama week and I’ve barely even given the pigskin game a second thought. Clearly baseball is my first love, but there’s plenty at stake for me on Saturday afternoon. I think my Vols will come out on top this year, but in a rivalry game like this, you never know.
In other SEC action, I’m taking Arkansas over Ole Miss, Auburn over Tulane, Georgia in a close one over MSU, LSU over Fresno State and South Carolina over Vandy.
But I’ll be primarily concerned with the baseball games this weekend. Here’s my quick prediction: Tigers win big in Game 1 (the Cards stink against lefties), but my Cards will steal one in Game 2 and return to St. Louie with a 1-1 split.

Congrats! Nice picture of “Poop-Holes.”
So . . . are you going to game 3, 4 or 5?
Hopefully this year’s Cards(and National Team at that) won’t be on the receiving end of the broom.Good luck with baseball this weekend, but I hope UT looses to Bama in a down to the wire upset!
So…I was definitely at the UA/UT game with a couple Bama friends…and my orange-bleeding dad. Needless to say it was an interesting ride home.I was also at Mayfair this morning. I missed all of you youthgroup people but I know y’all were having a wonderful retreat…living the SH dream!
