The NL Central Of Machismo



If you look past the erectile dysfunction, male pattern baldness and severe halitosis, I'm a sexual dynamo.


Today's post by lboros over at Viva El Birdos paints a pretty dismal picture of the AAA Central:

filter out the two sweeps at the hands of non-nl central foes, and the cardinals don't look half-bad...all along, the case for the cardinals as 2007 contenders has rested on the premise that they were no more flawed than the competition; they might be a mediocre club, but what nl central team stood poised to exploit them?...the early returns suggest that the cardinals, for all their very evident vulnerabilities, will still be able to compete within this group of 6 lousy teams.

I can't disagree. The Cardinal's 2006 campaign was the sausage of World Championships. The result tasted great, but the manufacturing process was almost unbearable to watch. If we don't make the post-season this year, it will be more akin to a Busch Gardens brewery tour I recall from years ago -- a long, hot slog that ended with a taste of cat piss.
