Turbulent week for St. Louis sports fans

The last few days have seen a string of unpleasant events for Gatewayville sports aficionados:

  1. Up against the trade deadline, the reeling Blues deal classy and free agency-bound defenseman Bryce Salvador in exchange for young right winger (and local product) Cam Janssen.
  2. The Cardinals cut their losses by releasing troubled outfielder Scott Spiezio, divorcing themselves from his substance abuse issues and his six-count drunken driving and assault complaint.
  3. The Rams make a salary offer that longtime receiver Issac Bruce found it easy to refuse, and so dissolve their ties to the last member of the Los Angeles edition of the team.

Guess it’s a good thing this week that St. Louis doesn’t have a pro basketball franchise.
