Born and raised in a small Ill. town, 3 miles(across the river) from St.Louis. Lived in Ca. for the past 5yrs..

I was raised in a diehard Cardinal family, but got fed up with Bill Bidwill, and gave up after their move to Arizona. Welcomed the Rams to St.Louis, and supported them up 'til 3yrs. ago, and slowly lost interest. It's been one big soap opera ever since martz took over, and I've had my fill of it. Keep in mind.., Warner's not the only player that was treated unfairly.

With Warner in there, and Bidwills change of heart, it's hopefully going to be a good yr. for the Cardinals !!! May not go the SB, but darn close to it, and then .., look out for next season!!

Listended under the covers with a transisitor radio to KMOX back in the fifties and Cardinal baseball and just made a logical transition to football in the days of Bobby Jo Conrad et al.

Listened to St Louis Cardinal baseball with my Granddad on the radio at age 5. When I heard something about the St Louis Cardinal football team, I thought it was the same guys. I thought Stan Musial just changed uni's and played football in the winter. Been a fan ever since.

Moved to a small town a little west of Phoenix about the same time the Cards came to town. I was still in high school at that time and the Cards became my team.

Texas, right in the cowfelons back door.

Been a cardinal fan since the early 60's and remember when Jim Hart was an undrafted rookie.

Will die a Cardinal fan.

You wouldn't happen to be talking about Belleville now, would you?

By the way, welcome to the ASFN board. Always glad to see a fellow southern Illinoisian on here.

I've got a Fast Eddies t-shirt on as I type. I wore it to school today cause the PTO stuck me in one of those money booths with the money flying around and it was the only tee I had with pockets.....only got $30 for my class but then again they had $1 bills and gave me 30 seconds.
