One More Convert

Buzz Bissinger, the author of the New York Times Bestseller "Three Nights in August", spent a year in the dugout with the Cardinals and Tony La Russa. While watching the Cardinals win and lose, laugh and groan and play at home in Busch Stadium, Bissinger became a trader to his "favorite team".

The author, a former New York Yankees booster, admits that he's now a Cardinals fan. "I have a terrific fondness for the Cardinals. I love their relationship with the region, with their fans," he said. "I grew up a Yankees fan, but La Russa won me over."

Welcome to Cardinal Nation Mr. Bissinger.
