Same with the Royals, I reallllly don't like the White Sox, and my dislike for Twins is pretty high, especially after a layover in Min-St.Paul in 2003 when we made our miracle run, it felt like enemy territory finally because we were also not shitty, and I kinda like the Indians but not really, and I hate Detroit. But I guess growing up more on the West Coast and not in KC I really never developed a dispassion for the Cardinals.

wierd.

Yeah, I hate Cards fans. All they remember is Denkinger, poor guy.  We don't cry about Chris Chambliss.  No we went back and stuck it to the Yanks one time and we don't worry about the rest.

it makes you minimally observant and borderline wrong (i.e., the love of small-ball =smart_

or just when they loose.  i'll be in the hy-vee view box on the third base side wearing what may be the oldest t shirt in the park (bleach stains and all).

I'm sure you're a nice guy, but you're not going to win any converts here, any more than I would if I posted at Viva el Birdos.

Get a brain morans!

So don't come on our board and try to tell us that you're a fan of both teams and then say 'talk to our ten rings' because that's bull shit. You can't be a great fan of two teams, and you've obviously chosen your team. I'm not even going to go into the difference in lifetimes of the franchises, because the Royals are a much younger team than the Cardinals are and for that reason alone it's not a big deal that the Royals have only been to the world series twice and won it once.

You'd think that an 8-1 smackdown by the "terrible, hapless Royals" would be enough to shut Cardinals fans up about these kinds of things, but obviously not. I hope we sweep your sorry asses, because heaven knows you deserve it.

And to the rest of the RR community, I'm sorry I'm getting bent out of shape; I normally don't do this, but I'm sick and tired of the bullshit that we have to put up with annually when the deadbirds come to town.

except more people are right and i'm not in danger of getting slapped for wearing blue.

last night there was a group of guys the next section over (132) chanting 'wor-ld se-ries' with their one friend in blue looking forlorn.  I walked over and asked (kinda loudly) 'which one, 1985?' and walked off.

bite me birdos.

I challenge everyone to the Jeff City/Columbia/Springfield experience. Try living there 365 days out of the year and being a lone Royals fan. That's why I hate Cards fans so much, the stuff I have to put up with day to day.

it's not me, but i buy it.
