August 28, 2025 Why Mizzou Will SHOCK the SEC in 2025
Bernie dives into Missouri football’s 2025 season outlook, breaking down why this year’s Tigers might be Eli Drinkwitz’s best team yet. From quarterback depth to impact transfers, a stacked defense, and one of the SEC’s easiest schedules, Bernie explains why Mizzou is set up for another big run.
Despite back-to-back double-digit win seasons, Mizzou was picked just 12th in the SEC preseason poll and left out of the Top 25, Bernie calls out the national disrespect and lays out why the Tigers are built to prove people wrong.

August 26, 2025 Willson Contreras LOSES IT: Meltdown, Bat Toss & Suspension Coming?
Willson Contreras stole the show Monday night, for all the wrong reasons. After being ejected, the St. Louis Cardinals catcher lost his cool, charged the umpire, hurled his gear, and even flung a bat that struck hitting coach Brant Brown.
Bernie Miklasz dives into the meltdown, the fan/media reactions, what MLB discipline could look like, and why Contreras’ passion is both his strength and his downfall.
Plus: why Alec Burleson deserves love for both cleaning up Contreras’ mess (literally) and delivering the walk-off homer that saved the Cardinals from a crushing loss.

August 25, 2025 Will Cardinals Fans Have Patience With Chaim Bloom’s Rebuild?
Bernie Miklasz dives deep into the future of the St. Louis Cardinals under Chaim Bloom, who will soon take over as President of Baseball Operations.
Will Cardinals fans stay patient through the rebuild, or will the pressure mount quickly? Bernie examines:
• Why Bloom isn’t John Mozeliak (and why that matters)
• STL’s falling attendance and “Mozeliak fatigue”
• Bloom’s track record in Tampa Bay and Boston
• Why smart player development matters more than payroll size
• How long it could realistically take the Cardinals to contend again
Do Cardinals fans trust the process? Or will patience run out?

August 22, 2025 The REAL Reason the St. Louis Cardinals Don’t Score
Bernie breaks down why the St. Louis Cardinals outfield has become a lineup anchor, bottoming out over the last two seasons.
He contrasts today’s power outage with the Edmonds/Holliday/Lankford eras, then lays out practical fixes for Chaim Bloom: stabilize Alec Burleson and Lars Nootbaar, sort Jordan Walker/Victor Scott II/Michael Siani roles, keep tabs on Joshua Báez’s timeline, give Nathan Church a real look, and even consider JJ Wetherholt getting CF reps to inject a bat into the grass.

August 21, 2025 Cardinals BIGGEST Problem Chaim Bloom MUST Fix First
The St. Louis Cardinals have fallen apart on the mound, and Bernie dives into why starting pitching must be Chaim Bloom’s #1 priority heading into 2026. From Sonny Gray’s inconsistency to Miles Mikolas’ decline and Andre Pallante’s struggles, Bernie breaks down just how historically bad the rotation has been.
He also explains why young arms like Matthew Liberatore and Michael McGreevy are key for the future, why the Cardinals have failed in pitcher development, and what Bloom must do this offseason, trades, hidden-value signings, and developing homegrown talent, to rebuild the rotation.
