This photo of Augie Favazza says everything about the St. Louis Cardinals and their epic World Series championship.
 Augie Favazza
He grew up in the same neighborhood as Yogi Berra and Joe Garagiola – The Hill. He was a graduate of Southwest High, and the University of Missouri (B.J., 1973), and went on to become sports editor of the Portland Press Herald.
Now he splits the year between Old Orchard Beach and St. Petersburg – and works as an accreditation consultant to cosmetology schools. But he still has family in St. Louis, and his heart still pumps Cardinal red.

Sure, it sounds glamorous. Covering the Celtics for the Boston Herald, hobnobbing with the likes of Mike Gorman and Gary Washburn, is the stuff of journalism school fantasy.
 Steve Bulpett
But Steve Bulpett, who has had the beat since 1985, is here to tell you that it exacts a physical and emotional toll. Physical, from long hours, irregular sleep and exercise, and poor diet. Emotional, from the adrenaline high of the season and the inevitable and spooky decompression after it ends.
The toll on a writer’s personal life is another subject altogether. Bulpett, 54, says he has been “close to the alter a few times – three arrests, no convictions” in this candid interview. And though he does not disclose his favorite haunts on Boston’s North Shore, sources say he can be found at Red Rock Bistro in Swampscott on weekends.
