I don't know if anyone has mentioned the Red Rising series but it's very good especially the first book.

Excited for the new MLS expansion team, will be a great addition to STL sports

I'm happy to have an MLS team as well. I've never really gotten into soccer, but I'm going to give it a shot. I've always thought I never really got into basketball or soccer because I didn't have a team to cheer for growing up. We'll see if that changes. I'm sure it will be successful as there are a lot of soccer die-hard around St. Louis.

Hey guys at least we have our very own XFL team called the St. Louis BattleHawks.

Wow, can't wait. That name is amazing.. lets go hawks.

Haaaaaaaa.....

Came to this board just to see this post. St. Louis fan cheering for a team called __Hawks. Someone did their research

 

[David Dennison]

Reminds me of the hawk people from Flash Gordon.

 

[Em etah Eh]

You could put battle in front of thousands of nouns and have it be an okay, cheesy, XFL team name, and that's the one they go with? Really?

Yep. They talked to precisely 0 people from St. Louis before they submitted that name. Just awful. No St. Louisan wants to cheer for the Hawks.

Huge year in STL sports. It's crazy that we finally win the Stanley Cup, and then get an MLS franchise and an XFL team to boot.

Two sport city my arse, Kroenke!

xfl is a joke league anyways

 

[David Dennison]

20 years ago today, "We will rally around Kurt Warner and play good football."

Greatest injury fill-in in STL sports history?
Warner for Green
Pujols for Bonilla
Binnington for Allen

It may be. But I am all in. Just ordered some merch from the XFL shop and am going to get season tickets.

 

[ChicagoBlues]

Somewhat interesting video that I’m watching right now.

EDIT: Just finished watching it. It’s actually not that interesting at all.

 

[ChicagoBlues]

Damn! Just came across a depressing video about one-time Blues player Joe Murphy.

Sad.

 

[Vladdy the Impaler]

I see the Cardinals are looking to channel their inner STL Blues these next two months

[BrokenFace]

Hate to see Kevin Wheeler get canned by 101.1. Liked him the best, although that's because he's not a hyperventilating live twitter stream. Maybe that's why he got fired though. That's exactly the personality type that works now.

 

[Falco Lombardi]

Rest in Peace Chris Duncan. Brain tumor at 38.

I loved the Turn with him and Anthony Stalter. Stalter I find myself agreeing with almost all the time and Dunc was hilarious. Seemed like a really good dude.

I was sad to hear about Dunc, He was so goofy and full of life. When he was on the Fast lane with Randy and Damarco Farr, it was a great show and has not been the same without that trio IMO

 

[ChicagoBlues]

I didn’t know he was sick.

RIP Dunc

 

[Celtic Note]

That’s way too young

 

[Vladdy the Impaler]

RIP Dunc, knew he had taken a medical leave from 101 ESPN but didn't know he was so close to the end. Such a funny and down to earth guy, he will be missed. Gliobastoma Multiforme is a terrible disease.

Also, I hate the Patriots so f'ing much. Makes me grin with so much satisfaction every time I think about us beating Boston's arses in game 7.

Boston kicked off their 20 year sports run against St. Louis, lets hope we put an end (with the cup win) till it and they get a nice long drought.

I'm sorry guys, but we can't solve a dispute here.
How do you say in English when a guy likes when an audience is listening to him carefully/with an interest.

a) He likes to be listened with interest
b) He likes to be listened to with interest
c) Other variant

 

[Stupendous Yappi]

A is not correct, but B would work. I would probably say it differently, depending if the tone is meant to be favorable to the guy or say that he's an attention whore.
