Thanks. Was in doubt for a bit; I NEVER put it past the Cardinals to pull some wabbit out of their hat. I disagree on the Cards' management however; I think Matheny is in the top-tier in that role and, pre-Maddon, thought he'd have looked great in a Cub uniform. They had some player injuries & performance issues but they aren't going anywhere. They have a damned good farm system as well. And Cards fans are great 'cause they understand the game so well. Like an AK; it ain't pretty but it's enthusiastic & that's gotta count fer somethin'.
