OK, so I have this wishlist on my tivo to record anything with the word Cardinals and a theme of football. Today I checked to make sure the game tomorrow was set to record, and I see that it is also prepared to record Broncos@Rams on HD channel 725. In the guide description of that game it says Denver Broncos@St. Louis Cardinals!! WTF! If you have Directv, check it out. Does anyone ever mistakenly say Baltimore Colts? Or LA Rams?

not to make it okay --

the fact that there still is a "St. Louis Cardinals", albeit in baseball, probably reinforces the mistake

Ah, that explains things. I checked my DirecTV-brand DVR. I have it set to record anything in the category football with the key word "Cardinals." For some reason, it was set to record the Denver Short Cut. I didn't look closely and just assumed it was bad data from the last pre-season game. I'll have to check it out when I get home to see if it says STL Cards.

I guess the good news is that probably no one calls us the Chicago Cardinals any more.
