Even though the St. Louis Cardinals beat the Chicago Cubs 11-1 Thursday night, they are still in a huge hole. They lost two of three to the unlovable losers from Chi-town and remain 8 games behind the Milwaukee Brewers in the N.L. Central with a 46-52 record.

So, basically, they suck. And the word has spread. All the way to Hollywood and a film legend. Rob Lowe. In an article in today's St. Louis Post-Dispatch, the actor smugly asks a question Redbird Nation has asked for many months:

"Lowe himself wanted to talk baseball; specifically, 'What's the matter with your Cardinals this season?' He grew up a Cincinnati Reds fan."

So, Lowe, the Reds fan, wants to know what's wrong. Hey, Sodapop Curtis, why don't you ask what's wrong with your beloved Redlegs? Are you listening to me Dean Youngblood?

Do us all a favor, Robby. Call up Emilio Estevez and Patrick Swayze and you can star in your own reality show. Hey, Corey Feldman and Corey Haim are doing it (sort of). You should too.

I can see it now. You, Estevez, Swayze and more. You can invite the former Mrs. Estevez, Paula Abdul. She has her own reality show too. And she really is crazy! You can also invite that underage girl you had sex with. And how about "Justin Morris," the guy you had a threesome with? Wonder what he's up to these days.

It'll be a ratings bonanza!

Or you can be quiet and watch the Reds fall deeper into fifth or sixth place. Again.
