Albert Pujols

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Wealth can be measured a lot of ways and does not necessarily equal happiness. However, it is interesting to note that the 3rd richest person in all of Missouri just happens to also be 33 times wealthier than even Major League Baseball and St. Louis Cardinal legend Albert Pujols.

Everything must be sold, right down to the art on the walls!

I think many of us diehard St. Louis Cardinals fans would love to say thank you to Albert Pujols and Yadier Molina for all of the great memories they've provided over the years. While we may not be able to do that in person, it is possible to sign huge thank you cards this weekend inside Busch Stadium.

Only 3 men before him have ever done it. Tonight, Albert Pujols joined their ranks. He hit career home runs 699 and 700 against the Los Angeles Dodgers Friday night

There are no doubt home runs and then there are historic moon shots like the one Albert Pujols just hit to reach career home run 698 in St. Louis versus the Cincinnati Reds.

Home run balls make great souvenirs especially historic ones. Albert Pujols hit career home run number 697 on Sunday and the fans who caught it tried to give the ball to him. The reason he gave it back is heartwarming and the real reason why Albert Pujols is a hero.

Baseball is all about numbers. Historians and fans pour over them with an obsession that is greater than virtually any other sport. One who is not included in that number is St. Louis Cardinal Albert Pujols. Despite the fact that he's approaching 700 career home runs, he still plans to retire no matter where he ends up.
