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).

I appreciate baseball as a sport more because of the time I spent forced to watch Cards baseball here in Springfield. I'm one of two Royals fans in my circle of friends, and for the most part, my friends don't give me an inordinate amount of shit.

That being said, I posted on Twitter about the Blue Crew taking the series and ending the streak and got a response from a friend who said something about how that was the Royals' world series these last few days. I simply linked him the Terio "Ooh Killem" remix because I didn't feel like starting shit about how St. Louis fans are the best fans in baseball.
