St. Louis Director Remembers Team 'That Baseball Forgot' In Documentary

The city's second Major League team, the St. Louis Browns, had 41 losing seasons in 52 years, making them arguably the worst team in baseball. They even inspired the slogan "St. Louis: First in shoes, first in booze, and last in the American League.”

Cardinals Rank #8 In MLB Team's Bobblehead Giveaways
Bobbleheads are still a popular promotional item at your local big league park. And why not? Who doesn't love a bobblehead? I have an Ichiro Suzuki and Mike Cameron in my office, along with Mark Messier, who played some other goofy sport where the players slide around on ice. A good bobblehead list should focus on the current roster but if a team wants to commemorate its history, that's fine as well, especially if they can find a creative way to do so.
