Yep...still healthy...old man albert

you sound obsessed about a greedy <jerk that thought he was bigger than the name on the front of the jersey.

Nope.

Its a good thing you said it, because nobody else on this board would have the guts.

Brave man.

several posters on this board have been saying that.

edit: not just the sour grapes type, either.

Precisely. I've heard that exact line 100 times...

Maybe it increases in truth with each time its typed.

Beetle Juice, Beetle Juice, Beetle Juice... nothing happened.

you seem like you're trying to convince yourself that something is true.

good luck with that.

All you have to do is look at Pujols' numbers to see he's in decline.

So there seems to be a reason it is repeated on this board with great regularity beyond the kind and thoughtful intention of passing on the news.

You are mocking the need for self assurance.

I like it.

At least you admit there is such a need.

...as for sour grapes - cannidate:

cathyi8205: "Who? I put him up there with Mr. Cornrow (Rasmus). I don't miss either one." (and anyone else that has suffered a decade-long amnesia of the greatest player during that time-span).

There seems to be some kooky need to belittle ex cards on the MB.
It is silly an juvenile...like me ;)

i dont have to justify anything when it comes to albert
i still celebrate 2 championships in large part to him being a cardinal
since mid may he is hitting as well as ever..

Do the cards win more if albert goes 0-4 in cali ?um no

I agree.

I won't argue with anyone who says his numbers are in decline. They should be but this year has not been like his last few where he went through huge swings in performance multiple times. Once he started hitting he pretty much has kept it up. The slow start could easily be explained by trying to hard to live up to the contract.
