Last offseason's tired narrative won't suffice for the Cardinals in 2025
The Cardinals season is careening right before our eyes. After surging from nine games below .500 to six games over from Mother's Day to July, things have taken another downward turn. Now, the Cardinals are looking at back-to-back losing seasons for the first time since 1994-95. This hasn't happened in full seasons for the Cardinals since 1958-59, and back then, the regular season schedule wasn't even 162 games.

St. Louis Cardinals season is literally under water after latest travel disaster
Whatever good vibes the St. Louis Cardinals had after their brief three-game winning streak vanished on Saturday, as they lost 6-1 against the Minnesota Twins. Sonny Gray had a chance to not only keep the good times rolling for his team as they attempt to make an unlikely run to the postseason, but he had a chance to beat his former team as well. He wound up allowing five runs in six innings of work and was outpitched by Pablo Lopez who kept the Cardinals off the board entirely. St. Louis lost 6-0 and fell back below the .500 mark. The cherry on top was the Cardinals losing star catcher Willson Contreras due to injury.

The Jefferson Bank Protest-a flashpoint in the St. Louis Civil Rights Movement
The decision to end the Jefferson Bank Commemorative Protest was an agonizing one for me. I respect the rationale shared by those closest to the initial protest to find more creative and relevant ways to memorialize the protest that still reverberates with those in the ongoing struggle for basic human rights for Black workers. The way the white power structure (as it was called in back in the day) linked arms to crush the protest rarely gets attention. It is a valuable case study for those who want to fight seriously for transformative change. You cannot underestimate the power of your oppressors.
