Pujols' monster shot forces another game

The Chief admits to being a long-time and unashamed Cardinals fan - listening to the Redbird games on KMOX at night when I was supposed to be sleeping, after getting a radio for my 8th birthday, A few years later it was walking a few blocks from home, hopping the Grand Avenue streetcar ($.25) to the OLD Busch Stadium (bleachers $2.75). Given that, how could I go for anyone else, eh?

St. L. Cards

Monday tonight's game, with Albert Pujols stealing the win from the Astros with his3-run homer, with 2 outs + two strikes in the bottom of the 9th inning has to be one of the classic moments of the game. As a long time Cards fan, what a moment! I guess it ws a moment for the Astros of course, too, but with a somewhat different quality.

Sometimes you lose, sometimes you win, but the Houston tesm dancing in their dugout during the 9th inning re-learned a fundamental lesson - the game ain't over until there's 27 outs!

It's not time to start tearing down Busch Stadium yet!

Piggy backing on Jason's post regarding what's in Karl Rove's garage, I'd like to note a few things I found in Ken Blanchard's garage the other day: a hammer a measuring tape Jimmy Hoffa an oil stain Zuzu's petals a...

Powerline continues to be the best blog out there. Here is some perspective from John Hinderaker that is long overdue. The question remains, though, what is fueling this liberal triumphalism? The answer, no doubt, is President Bush's falling poll ratings....

In my previous post I noted (borrowing from Powerline) that President Bush's approval ratings weren't all that bad compared to the low points of other Presidents. Its worth noting that they are stellar compared to those of our European allies....

Iranian militants in power stir fears

The rise of militants to power positions in Iran is raising new worries about Iranian military forces' deploying new weapons that threaten oil supplies or future long-range nuclear or chemical missile strikes.

Military specialists say the Islamist regime in Tehran has not invested heavily in the past decade in new tanks, armored vehicles or warplanes, but instead focused defense spending on "asymmetric" warfare capabilities. These include Iran's covert nuclear program and new Shahab-3 and older Scud missiles that could deliver nuclear, chemical and biological weapons hundreds of miles away.

So why would anyone be surprised by this? Islamofascist jihadi states will act like...Islamofascist jihadi states. That's what they do.

Just like the Nazi plan was written in Mein Kampf, the ideological framework of the Islamofascist jihad is written in THEIR book - The Koran.

How to Win a War in Two Easy Steps

Emperor Misha has outdone himself here, with a semi-long, well-reasoned, and practically realistic commentary on resolving the Iraq front of the Jihadistani Islamofascist Terror War.

By way of background on what my perspective is coming from, the Chief teaches H.S. sciences, but is ALSO certified for Government, and History, and is a serious history buff - with a strong interest in (and some academic study of) military history.

Coming from that knowledge base, I have to say that Misha's analysis and the historical perspectives cited are right on the mark. This post has a ****½ rating from the Chief out of *****, at least.

Take a look - it's well worth the read!

While I'm hardly the nation's most ardent lover of college football, I've always been a follower and this season has provided some great excitement thus far. In fact, I've found that recently I've been really looking forward to Saturday's match-ups....

An odd coincidence on the Aberdeen American News homepage. There is this AP story about a riot in Toledo when Nazis tried to stage a rally. It's not clear exactly who did the rioting, but it appears it was by...
