St. Louis mayor gets blasted in Deadspin

[Prison Bitch]

If you ever needed another reason to dislike that town across the state, see now this:

The other day, the Wall Street Journal accurately noted that the Cardinals are the most loathsome team in this year's playoffs. Well, Mayor Francis Slay (NOTE: quality lead singer name) wasn't about to take that shit lying down. He took time off from arming the police with rail guns yesterday to pen an op-ed in the WSJ, defending the Cardinals and then doing that thing all politicians do where they trump up their voting district like they're listing their own personal résumé. Let's get into this pile of garbage.

St. Louis to America: Don't Be Jealous

I have years, ****ing years of supporting the fans of the Royals on this board.

All I was saying was the "Cardinal way" was to draft and develop players. It's the best way for a baseball team that doesn't have a $2 billion cable TV contract in 2014 to maintain consistent success. If you think the Royals can do it a different way, your delusional. So all these sand in the vagina comments are getting pathetic.

This why you come across as the clueless dolt. Have the Royals been trying to sign mega$ FAs? What other process is there? You mention draft and develop as though nobody on this board knows that. You're tone deaf.

Cardinal way? Is that drafting one of the top five players of the generation in 470th round (and then heckling folks to the West because "we took him from under your nose, how'd you miss him?). Or playing in a division that you can't possibly lose? .

Make no mistake: if we advance farther than they do, their fangs will come out. Any Cards fan pretending to be a Royals supporter is simply masquerading so they can play nice with their Facebook friends. But deep down, their true nature won't change. Just wait.

Aren't you like a high school teacher or something?

Somehow it's probably the Cardinals fault that the Royals let all their homegrown star talent walk out the door.

No.. Actually we aren't. We have our own success. We are not your rivals. Just shut the **** up and worry about KC baseball.

Surprised he could pull himself away from an O.A.R concert DVD to give a quote.

And yet, there you were earlier in the thread, crying that my comments might make you root against KC. You're far more sensitive and thin skinned than you admit if a msg board poster can alter your entire state of mind so easily.

Prison Bitch is a damn good troll I will give him that much.

I said all the Royals fans cheering against the Cards at the bar I was at, and the drunk, bandwagon 21 year old Royals fan talking shit to me the entire game makes it hard for me to cheer for the Royals. I never said I was actively rooting for a KC failure

The bandwagon Royals fans in a KC area bar I'm guessing?

The bitch told me the Royals were from Kansas. I'm not reaching on that at all.

[kysirsoze]

This thread has so much butthurt on both sides it is amazing. I'm not sure which side has more hurt feelings.

[kcpasco]

The Cards and Royals both play in a market the media could care less about.
I mean didn't you read since the Cards smacked Kershaw around they must have been stealing signs.

[kcpasco]

You think the media would have a problem with the Yankees, Red Sox, Angels or Dodgers winning every year? But let's say some flyover state team like the Royals, Cards, Brewers, Twins etc does and oh hell no we can't have that crap.
