blues update

Right now the blues are doing fantastic, and I have a feeling this is their year. They are ranked first in the NHL, and were in the top 3 in defense. The trade we made mid season to get Ryan miller for Halak is proving to be a wonderful trade as he has only lost against the Flyers and Blackhawks during his run. TJ is looking good, and so is everyone else. I hope this is our year because, despite making the playoffs 38 out 46 years, we have no Stanley cup. This includes our first 3 years where we lost 3 straight. Pretty sad, but I still love my blues. Getting off topic, but the Bilikens recently got eliminated from the NCAA tournament which is disappointing but im not torn up about it.

Cardinals update

3-run homer lifts Dodgers over St. Louis

The Cardinals are showing tons of promise. Little Pedro ( Carlos Martinez) is having an unbelievable spring training as well as Kelly and Kolten Wong too. At 10 and 10 the cardinals don't have the best record, but spring doesn't really matter. A  game or two ago Holliday, Adams, and Peralta all blasted a homerun, and Kelly threw a no hitter going into the 6th where he exploded. I haven't heard much from Wacha except he allowed 2 runs in 7 innings his last start, and I haven't heard from peter bourgeois at all. Overall the Cardinals look like they are going to tear up the NL.

Hawks update

For once I am not going to talk about baseball, but I will talk NBA. It may seem weird but I am a Atlanta hawks fan. I only say that because most people around Missouri cheer for the bulls, and I hate the bulls. Anyway, for some reason I have always been attracted to the hawks. Maybe its their players, the logo, or even the fact that they have played for St. Louis at one point and won their only NBA championship their. Right now they 31-35 which may not seem that good but their hanging on to their playoff spot. They are fending off the Knicks for the last spot, but I am worried because they are playing some tough teams down the road, and the Knicks are hot. Either way ill be a hawks fan for awhile unless they start to really suck which

Pride

Pride is a very solid flic. Ill start with the good stuff. It has a pretty interesting story, had a good sound track, and its pacing is great. Our main character(Jim Ellis) is done very well by showing a hard working man finally get his chance to shine, and his relationship with all the boys and the guy who owns the school are also done well. What I also find surprising is while it is a underdog story, which I am sick of, its done in a way that makes it feel new, and not boring. The best part of the flic though is how big of a heart it has. Alright lets get to the bad stuff. Aside from the main character, a lot of the characters are not too interesting, except for Andre and his sister, but you cant blame them cause they have so many. That gangster story line isn't done very well, and the movie could of been the same without it. Its also pretty predictable what's going to happen at the end, but it had a very good ending. Overall, this is one of the better sports movies out there, and I am surprised that this movie is never really talked about because this is better than a lot of other sports movies, and didn't fall into typical sport movie traps. Overall I am very glad I saw it.

Worst things you can do to a Child

You can do a lot of wrong to a child. Probably the worst you can do is beat them constantly which is depressing. Another is just not caring at all. A good example of this is Adrian Peterson who let his child get beat to death by his psychotic brother. Very, very, sad. Those are the only two to come to my head at this moment. A bad parent is one who doesn't care what happens to his or her child.

Cardinals update

The Cardinals are doing decent so far in spring training partially due Johnny Peraltas outstanding power, he is showing a lot of promise. Even if its only spring training, which doesn't really matter, I do like to see my redbirds winning. They lost to Miami twice, beat Boston, beat Philadelphia, and lost to the Colorado I think. As I said Johnny Peralta is showing lots of talent in the hitting department hitting two homeruns in one game and two doubles in the next despite being a shortstop. Our prospects have been showing some good talent also, well our hitting prospects.
