Dear Santa. What I want for Christmas is Adam Wainwright striking out Albert Pujols in the 2012 All Star Game. That's all. I've been good.
Brett Hull left because Mike Keenan was an [expletive]. Most people realized that and that's why Hull is still beloved. Albert left purely for more money. I don't think he'll be as beloved as other players from the last 11 years like Edmonds, Carpenter, and possibly Molina and Wainwright.maddash wrote:They still love Brett Hull in this town.

Yeah, there might be a few years of resentment, but this city will still love Albert. No doubt about that in my mind.
