The younger Blues have received invaluable experience this year due to injuries. The Rams will have to grow to become an elite team. I believe they are on the right track. I like what I hear from our new coach - run the ball, protect the quarterback and play strong defense.

The Cardinals have strong outfielders, an upgraded infield and pretty good pitching. They just need to put it all together. I'm looking forward to this season in all St. Louis sports.

It just goes to show you that when you get a top 10 draft choice for 40 years in a row, good things can happen.

One more time

To past and present Rams management ... tell us one more time, why was Kurt Warner allowed to leave the Rams in favor of Marc Bulger?
