Introducing SB Nation St. Louis, Where Albert Pujols Crushes The Competition

As you may have noticed, the past few weeks SB Nation has rolled out a host of regional sports sites. We’re up to twelve so far, with eight more coming by the beginning of July. Twenty sites in twenty days, y’all. Bottom line: if your city doesn’t already have an SB Nation regional site, well, just a wait a few days and you probably will.

And so it’s with great pleasure that I introduce our latest site, SB Nation St. Louis, managed by Dan Moore of our always excellent Cardinals blog, Viva El Birdos. He’s joined by a team of some of the best St. Louis sports bloggers out there, so be sure to bookmark it and check it out.

Like the rest of our regional sites, the guys at SB Nation St. Louis came up with a list of the top five most popular athletes in the city. I’ll give you one guess who took home the top spot. Starts with an “Albert” and ends with a “My god will that shot off Brad Lidge ever land?” Pujols.

Things got more interesting after the Cards first baseman, with Adam Wainwright, Sam Bradford of the up-and-coming Rams (is there any other direction for that woebegone franchise to go?), Yadier Molina (don’t underestimate how much they love their great defensive catchers), and Steven Jackson rounding out the rest of the list.

Now it’s your turn to tell us how you’d rank the stars of the St. Louis sports universe -- after the great Pujols, of course. Will the much-ballyhooed Bradford edge out Wainwright, or will fantasy-favorite Steven Jackson take home the silver medal?
