The Opening Drive

Smalls joins "The Opening Drive" to continue our celebration of memories and stories from four years ago today when the Blues celebrated their Stanley Cup win with the city of STL, the memories for the day that will always stick with Michelle, how the tattoo for Randy story started and erupted and then there's consoling words from the outside on how Cardinals fans can maybe (ehhhh?) stay sane as they deal with the rest of the season.

Sunny joins the show to talk a walk down memory lane and talk about the impact of Chief's pregame speech before Game 7, the impact that Chief had on the team when he took over a last-place squad, if he got any sleep between the end of Game 7 and the celebration across the following two days, why interacting with the fans at the parade is one of his favorite memories, congratulating Petro & Barby on a second cup win for them, his new status as a CITY superfan and whether or not he could see himself returning to the Blues this offseason.

Greg joins the show to break down how the Cardinals panic is spreading across a national fanbase, Dan Plesac's prediction on Oli Marmol & why Greg thinks the decision would come down, if Joe Maddon could be a potential successor if that happens, why the real move for the Cardinals is a "colossal shakeup", the problem with wanting to lean on the success of last year's post-Girardi Phillies, the curios case of managers and their affect on the game, which manager would be perfect for the Cardinals and why a potential trade for Goldy is a legitimate option.
