Kurtis Eugene Warner "Lets Shock The world". CARDINALS did. Even in losing the Super Bowl. Warners mug and voice will be seen and heard every year now as he does Pro Games and eventually his Movie will come out bringing more Pub to the Cardinals and the almost World Championship and shocking Playoff run.Then the Hall Of Fame.

See some of you there.

That is awesome work Jeff!!! I've got a great story regarding MLB Niko Noga. I think it was during training camp back in 1987 (last year in St. Louis) and the Cardinals were in training camp at Eastern Illinois University. My brother and I snuck into the Cards weight lifting room and watched Noga Behind the Neck Military Press 315 pounds something like 12 times and this was after a full round of practice. We talked to some players and assistant coaches who told us that everyone was scared to death of Noga and it was pretty obvious because he always had about 15 feet of open space where no one dared get near him during his weight lifting workout. He would walk around in between sets and just scowl and grunt. It was awesome!
