The @TortyCraig Twitter account tells stories from the Cardinals clubhouse from the vantage point of a tortoise. It's complicated, important stuff. He's racked up over 25,000 followers and every media entity in St. Louis has tried to get an interview with the man behind the Twitter account and have been unsuccessful. Until today.

The stress of last Saturday’s 31-14 loss at Wisconsin must have been getting to Illinois Fighting Illini head football coach Tim Beckman.

It’s prime time for the fans at Busch to demonstrate their never-ending support for the color that defines St. Louis.  Just in case you were confused, we’re not talking about the Cardinals.  We’re talking about Sammy Hagar, [...]

Rene Knott is a guy who most people see for a few minutes here and there on KSDK telecasts. We were pleased to have him on the show this week and provide the JSF contingent a chance to hear him away from the bounds of a news teleprompter.
