Sports fans across the entire state have suffered through one of the worst weeks in Missouri sports history. At least this reporter cannot recall a week any worse than the one which we have just completed.
The week started out with our beloved Cards losing two NLDS games to the Dodgers out in Dodger Stadium. Then on Thursday night, the 24th ranked Missouri Tigers blew a lead over the 21st ranked Nebraska Cornhuskers in the 4th quarter on a rain-soaked Faurot Field. On Friday evening, the Dodgers completed their sweep over the Cardinals in a chilly Busch Stadium. The St. Louis Blues then lost their first hockey game of the season. The losing week from hell was capped off on Sunday afternoon by the St. Louis Rams' loss to the Minnesota Vikings and the Kansas City Chief's loss to the Dallas Cowboys. Even our Hermann Bearcats went down to defeat this past Friday .... but that was not much of a surprise.
Once again it looks like Missouri won't be playing for the National Championship, the Cards won't be in the World Series, and neither the Rams nor the Chiefs will make it to the Super Bowl. When does the tiddly wink season begin?!
