Police Worry as Wall Street Protesters Pine for World Series Spotlight
ST. LOUIS (KMOX) – The Occupy Wall Street movement may make a move this week on the World Series.

Facebook chatter from the protesters suggests they are casting their eyes on Busch Stadium, coveting the national media spotlight surrounding the series.

Among the ideas floated among group members online: A massive rally, pitching tents around Busch Stadium or sending a streaker onto the field during the game “to send a message.”

St. Louis Police Major Lawrence O’Toole says police will uphold the protesters’ Constitutional rights of assembly and free speech, but he’s concerned about a “lone wolf” causing trouble.

The rest is here:

3. Spotlight? Rangers vs. Cardinals? Who cares?
Actually, I'd like to see the Rangers thoroughly whipped in 4 games due to their association with George W. Bush.

5. Alas, the Cards' manager and All-Star first baseman went to the Beckkk rally last year
it's a lose-lose this year, with nary a "lefty" in the lineup. :(
