The land of the red birds. Take them down.

 

With all due respect to Carter ( I like that guy ) the SL fans are obnoxious twits that think their s*** does not stink.

 

I have a history at Redbirds.com and it is not pretty.

 

f*** the cards and their s*** for brains fans.

 

They can all go choke on gooey butter.

I'm actually kind of partial to the Cardinals. I don't root for them of course. But they are one of the oldest MLB franchises with a lot of history. The guy who really got them going was Branch Rickey, who i think was the first to develop minor league relationships that fed the MLB team. Ever since then, including the 21st century, their overall management has been solid. The St Louis Cardinal fans are not so much fanatics as incredibly loyal because their population is 316K, down from 856K in 1950, but their attendance is regularly near the top in MLB. Right now they are 2d of 30 teams. If you drive across the country or at least as far west as Missouri and Oklahoma, you will hear their games on the radio.

 

ERod vs. Lynn tonight--tough match-up given our struggles at the plate.

To celebrate the 50th anniversary of our 1967 World Series Championship, both #STLCards & #RedSox will wear '67 throwback uniforms tonight.

 

Wonder why they won't wear 2004 or 2013 throwbacks?

Hold on there Spudster! Don't confuse long time, game attending fans with the s*** for brains jag-offs that frequent Redbirds.com and worse of all, Cards Talk. That place is so awful that the Mod stopped modding! The guy just f***ing gave up!

 

You guys are catching us at a bad time. After a horrible 3-9 start, in the last 3 weeks the starters and pen have been surprisingly effective (even grandpa Wainwright) The Achilles heel is s***** D and the worst base running you ever saw short of little league. I figure this little series will be a split. I will definitely take a split! :)

LOL....I think you know the answer to that one. I wonder if any of the old '67 Sox will be there? I love to see old ball players run into each other after many years.

Rico and Yaz are really the two guys that still show up. Others show up once in a while.

Oh yeah? Top this: remember that little dude that got picked off 1B (Wong) to end game 5 in '13? Well, in a game last week he was picked off 2b TWICE...even worse, 3B was occupied! Also in that game there were 2 others picked off and a couple of caught stealings!

 

Ha! Top that. :)

In a 3 run game in the 8th inning with runners on 1st and 2nd, Hanley ripped a ball off the monster, a run scored, but runner on 1st couldn't advance to 3rd as it was hit so hard. Hanley ran to 2nd anyway so we had 2 runners on 2nd and one was tagged out.

 

Then next day JBJ hit a pop up to left field that somehow ended up a triple play.

 

We're the kings of being retards on the base paths!

Pedroia, Xander must steps their game up. They're the veterans of this club.

 

His lack of power is frustrating but Xander is one of the only guys on the team actually hitting.

I love Mookie lead off home runs.

 

Also, let me tell you guys having Trout and Mookie in a money fantasy league is the greatest thing ever.
