Congratulations to the St. Louis Cardinals:
2009 National League Central Division Champions
The Cardinals defeated the Colorado Rockies tonight, 6-3. It is now a mathematical certainty that the Cardinals will end the season in first place and head into the postseason. Break out the champagne!! The National League Division Series begins October 7.
- Brent Lonteen is out. He’s resigned as President of the Peoria Area Convention and Visitors Bureau. No one will say why.
- Henry Holling is out. His job as interim City Manager ended Friday. Scott Moore takes over now.
- EmergePeoria says that Craig Hullinger is out. However, I can get no independent verification of that. E-mails to Holling and Hullinger have gone unanswered. I have heard rumors, however, that if/when Hullinger does resign, the plan is for the city to hire him as a consultant. Sounds like a page out of the District 150 playbook to me.
- Billy Dennis says Chuck Collins is out. No independent verification of that either. Even Billy says it’s just a rumor.
- Summer is out. It ended a few days ago. Life goes on and the world goes ’round….
