About C70
When I started blogging in 2007, this is how I described the blog:
I'm a long-time Cardinal fan who spends most of my Internet time at CardsClubhouse.com,
where I'm the co-administrator and YNOT guru. I'm married with two
kids and work as a CPA here in Arkansas. Grew up loving Ozzie, rooted
for McGwire and now awed by Pujols.
From my first post on what you'll find here:
This is not going to be a high-quality Cardinals blog like vivaelbirdos, with stats and interesting new ways of looking at things. I'm not going to cover the minors the way that Future Redbirds
does. There are a lot of great Cardinal blogs out there, each of them
with their own style. What you'll get here is the general thoughts of a
guy who doesn't watch every pitch, but tries to watch some of every game
while juggling the home life. A guy who spends time talking Cardinals
at CardsClubhouse
and reading about them other places. You'll probably get ideas I've
seen other places, but I'll try to identify those that aren't mine, at
least.
It's just a regular joe blog. I root for the Cardinals and
typically give them and management the benefit of the doubt. I'll
criticize when necessary, but I'm not big on general bashing. So let's
give it a shot, see what happens.
Also, love getting comments. Want to tell me I have no clue? I
don't mind, if you can back it up. Like what you read? Mention that as
well. Feedback is always a nice thing.
Now, years down the road, it pretty much holds up. People seem to enjoy the writing and the thoughts here, which I appreciate. It's not breaking any ground or going to be something that gets passed around the internet, but it is what I think.
What it continues to come down to, though, is a deep love for baseball and the team that puts on the red in St. Louis. Some things never do change.
