Clearly marked for your shopping ease?
Classic Cuts
We often listen to music when composing or reading the site. Captain Beyond is this week's featured artist..a super band that fell victim to a failing studio. "Thousand Days of Yesterday" is a great mix of variations on a theme. (Click the pic...)

And now a word from William Frawley:
William on Memorial Day: " It's the first big cookout of the year, which means I'll end up being a hostile witness at one of the kids' houses, sitting in the back yard for hours in an uncomfortable lawn chair watching one of my offspring burn meat on the grill and drinking warm beer while grandkids "rambo" into me every few minutes and the family dog attempts to mate with my leg. Bean bags bouncing off my belly and ending up in my potato salad and burnt, charcoal black spare ribs. Toasted to a crispy red by the sun and suffering from indigestion and fatigue, they'll carry me to the car and Ethyl will drive us home....getting lost 14 times, nearly running over a flock of geese and neglecting all stop signs, traffic signals and oncoming vehicles. Memorial Day? Yeah, I'll remember it...when I'm in the hospital being treated for third-degree burns, ulcers, dehydration and possible pregnancy...
Cletus
A tip to catching the eligible Cletus, girls. Wearing the "bacon dress" will definitely get his attention!
Co-Co
Co-Co and the golfing chimps participated in the PGA (Primates, Gorillas, Apes) Tournament last weekend but failed to turn in a scorecard. Rumor is they were +109 over par after five holes and CoCo fed the scoresheet to Bill the Goat. The gals finished the eighteen holes using only seven irons and putters...having thrown the rest of their clubs in the lake on the fourth hole. Those darn Chimps!
Timmy the Intern
We hope you aren't fooled and purchase "pre-event" tickets to Timmy's latest scam..."Memorial Day Gala Picnic". the little scammer is charging $39.95 for a ham sandwich, can of 7Up and bag of potato chips... ("TIMMY! Report to my office immediately!" -Sonja)
Bill the Goat
Billy went to the Preakness in Baltimore, MD over the weekend and was thrown out of the racetrack for eating 2/3rds of the Black Eyed Susan bouquet they present the winning horse.
Bud Goode Presents...
"Hey, y'all! It's your good buddy Bud Goode here...Here is a easy way to take care of two essential items at the next family barbecue! The BUD GOODE Combination Charcoal Grill and Toilet allows you the ease of relieving yourself with having to stop cooking! Only $349.95 at the Tourniquet and Bandage Hardware Store or you can order by phone but hurry... because Timmy the Intern is now supervising the CARDINAL COUPLE Customer Care chimps and that's a train wreck waiting to happen. (1-800-BUD SALE! )
MArkie MArk
MArkie MArk in a pensive moment...contemplating his temporary role as a pillow at a sporting event. The sacrifices of today reap the rewards of the future...
The wisdom of Rodney...
" I only drink on two occasions...when it is my birthday and when it isn't.
The Weekly Cheeseburger
Your intrepid chesseburger monger with..."The Fish Sandwich at The Exchange in New Albany is a great break from cheeseburgers. Two huge filets...in a crispy beer flavored batter and enough fries for two people. Pricey as heck...($14) but could easily feed two. We were there for the beer, anyway..."
Corporate Chimp
"Reducing non-essential workplace luxuries can help cut overhead costs and trim your operating budget." Translation= We did away with the coffee, vending machines, toilets and call center. It's amazing how much time we have now to surf the Internet for genuine ideas...
Why certainly!
" Our records search show that you don't exist in our customer base. We did find your Facebook page, though...and wonder if you even have the intelligence to order online...given your entries and comments."
Really?
WE like the idea!
Wrong kind of 'hot' dogs.
What a relief !
In a slump...
It is never ending...
Perfect...
No wonder he three putts ocassionally....
Trust us, it's true!
Ah Chooo!
You mad bro?
"I was justing waving the gun. Seems like no one lets me shoot wherever I go..."
Forgot the Depends...
(Or sat in a wet seat?)
Excuse me!
Whoopsie!
Been there...
UCLA scored how many runs?
( who was pitching for us...Hillary Clinton?)
I'm afraid I have bad news to report, sir...
Our request to host the playoffs was sent back with the scrawled comment..."Prior experience required"

About the owners
( Thanks to Kenny B. for this write up of CARDINAL COUPLE) --CARDINAL COUPLE is owned by Paul and Sonja Sykes. And this means? Started in January 2009, this site is primarily dedicated to womens' athletics at UofL. Other stuff appears here also. Paul and Sonja are both employed in full time jobs not related to the site and run it as a hobby, passion and commitment to the 'joyous excitement that is Cardinal Womens' Athletics.' It isn't always easy, but they try to stay fresh, relevant and timely. Paul is in marketing, Sonja a public school employee. It's worth a daily read. With 5 writers and a cast of imaginary characters, CARDINAL COUPLE is unique as far as sports websites go. I tried to sit down with them for a more in-depth interview but Sonja refused to comment on the site other than noting "It's all Paul. I smile and grin a lot. That's important to know and I want that on the record in case the feds ever raid us." Paul refused to grant me an interview either, matter-of-factly telling me that he's holding out for an appearance on the Jon Stewart Show or Cake Wars. He also suggested I watch the movie "No Time For Sergeants" or the classic bit "Who's On First?" to gain a better insight and knowledge concerning his thought process. Regardless, I recommend CARDINAL COUPLE and give it four out of five stars. After all, it is women's sports. We dig Timmy the Intern and glad to see that William Frawley has resurfaced -- even if it's only in the mind of Paul. They provide links, have a comments section but no message board. You can find it at www.cardinalcouple.com and it is updated daily. Their liberal usage of pictures and photos helps break up the monotony of reading long stretches of print. Couple on, Cardinals!
