The question came on ESPN radio Friday morning from Sean Salisbury to Peter Gammons: Should fans feel betrayed by the players mentioned in the report?

This move, along with David Eckstein&#8217;s signing with the Toronto Blue Jays, is clear evidence the Cardinals are finally cutting ties with the past and accelerating [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[During the week of the biggest football game in the 116-year rivalry between Missouri and Kansas, I have a confession to make As a Missouri grad and lifetime Tigers fan, I&#8217;d rather beat Illinois than the Jayhawks. It&#8217;s true. The sport doesn&#8217;t matter &#8212; football, basketball, ping pong &#8212; you name it. Beating the Illini [...]]]></description>
