Is that a common thing with cardinals fans? Cuz I love gomez, puig, and anyone who plays with emotion.

The game needs more personality, and I think the cardinals in general lack it. They certainly lacked it under larussa.


And yea, I'd expect giants to appreciate a stud catcher.


Oh it was at least 75% of the Cards fans I interacted with. Very "we play the game the right way" type folk as I'm sure you know.

Siiiigh Cards take 2/3... now on to Pittsburgh. Yay.

Those aren't real cardinal fans. Those are the ones that just listen to what the media says about the cardinals and don't actually watch other games.

Sorry bud. Just beat up on the pirates.

I think you're confusing "cardinals fans" with "baseball fans who happen to also be cardinals fans". Just "cardinals fans" hate players like gomez/pierzynski/puig because they showboat and play with emotions. Most other fans of teams do as well. "Baseball fans" generally enjoy that type of thing because it brings more overall excitement to the game.

No. I lived in the middle of Missouri for 4 years and in the bay area for the rest of my life. High exposure to Giants, A's, Royals and Cardinals fans. It was the Cardinals fans who were so vocal about it.

like i said. im a huge cardinals fan and live in st louis my whole life.

i realize that alot of cardinals fans are annoying as fuck with the whole "best fans in baseball", "play the game the right way" shit and it makes ALL cardinals fans look like pompous assholes, but the media fuels the hell out if it so much.

its shoved in our faces here, by the news, ESPN, MLBnetwork, anything really, and then the casual fan picks up on it and it makes it worse.

its a sick cycle.

would be nice if he just decided to go ham against his old team
maybe like 6 home runs this series??

such a garbage acquisition though. worst part is it makes our team better. just decimated by injuries right now. bench is so fucking thin it's unreal.
