Hey Mac where did your avatar go??

The Cards will get a new, well-deserved arena soon. They may start construction within one year or five years but they will get it soon. Freedom Hall is an antique and anyone who has ever been there knows that.

I hope you're right, TomCat!

Looks like the Cards might not have to wait too long for that arena, after all.

Jurich Seems Impressed With Fairgrounds Arena Proposal

I just wish folks were as passionate about supporting academics as they are about supporting athletics.....

I agree that academics are more important than sports, but for kids that are truely talented how can someone tell them NO, DON'T SIGN THAT $50,000,000.00 contract with that pro team stay in college and risk hurting your knees and making $50,000.00 a year doing something you just like to do!!!

Also there are more athletic scholarships awarded that academic because more people pay to see basketball games than chess games.

Just a sad fact about our country
