My Friend

And Manager of the St. Louis. Cardinals just advanced to the NLCS! Mike Matheny and i have been life long friends growing up 7 doors down from each other. We are 2 years apart as he came in as a starting catcher as a freshman and i was a junior starting pitcher. He caught me every game i pitched. Mike went on to the University of Michigan and i went into the world of stucco and stone.

Mike spent most of his career at St. Louis before being traded to S.F. He just got the Managers job this year. I wish my friend all the best and just had to share w/my friends here.

CARDS ALL THE WAY!!!!!

Not going to Buddy! The wife just invited a bunch of friends over (her friends actually, to have wine. I will check them out) for a celebration as she used to date him for a bit during our H.S. years. And no, they never slept together. She was cool till she went to "THE Ohio State University." haha..

the team names mean nothing to me lol, but it always good to hear of the average man getting a break in life and making it big, even better if you know them personally and better again if they remember who their friends are when they had little or nothing

loads of good news lately, think ill do the lottery later see if i can keep this good news streak going lol
