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).

If I met that Amy chick in real life and she started saying that crap to me, my simple response would be, "How do you think the best fans on earth would do after 28 years of no playoff appearances and several 100 loss seasons?"
Not all Cardinal fans are bad, but that whole "best fans in baseball" is just plain stupid.
