You can only take so much arrogance and people constantly ripping your team before you start to root against their team.

It's funny how similar all these stories are...
I grew up in west-central Missouri, and the Royals were always my first love, but I liked the Cardinals until I got to Mizzou and spent 4 years with douchebag Cardinals fans. I actually still respect the hell out of the organization, the way it is run, and the product that's on the field. I just despise a lot of the fans who root for it (Like Amy from the tweet below, who can DIAF).
There are a lot of good ones - and I think this message board has mostly excellent Cardinals fan who are passionate about baseball, understand the game, and aren't douches to other fans - but because of their success, there are a lot of douchebags, too (Just like with any successful program).
