So I said "Man, the Cardinals treat this dude like Butters at the NAMBLA convention..."

And thus a nickname was born.

I forget that it's pretty much a nickname that about 25 people actually understand. I just use it as a matter of course. When that dude retires at 85 years old after spending 5 decades on the mic, he'll still be Butters to me.

Mostly because "Lesbian Volleyball Coach with Downs" takes too long to type.

Should have done that after last season, instead we gave an extension to the manager and ownership claimed the FO is doing good work.

This team is 3 years away from being relevant if they got someone with half a brain in charge tomorrow.

I said last May that this just isn't a single-season process. They had 3 years of trying to rebuild this thing ahead of them. And all they're doing is delaying that clock.

They could've started last deadline and into the offseason and been a few steps down the road; probably about where the Reds were in 2019. The Reds have slowly built their foundation back (with no meaningful fan support) and have managed .500 records or better in 3 of the last 4 seasons, with a team that's gotten younger every season.

Now they're in the tough spot of finishing off the rebuild and making themselves relevant. But they have a foundation in place that would allow for good decisions that could bring them back to 90 win territory.

Now the Reds draw less than 2 million fans/season so they'll struggle there. But this team shouldn't. You give the Cardinals a young foundation that can get them to .500 and a smart front office and they absolutely should be able to get to 90-92 wins again. And with a little luck and development, they can push that to 96+.

This team just lacks any sort of vision to even be seen in the same light as a fairly mediocre franchise like Cincy. Those guys aren't full of wiz kids over there - it's a pretty average front office. They're just better than the arrogant and rudderless ship this mess of a squad has.

.500 is a pipe dream for this club. The solid pitching isn't going to hold up especially with the lack of offense stressing the **** out of them everyday having to be near perfect.

These mother****ers gave Paul DeJong a standing ovation Friday.

They take pride in not giving a shit about actual success.

The BFIB are the goddamn worst.

I think that maybe just maybe the BFIB may actually start staying home.


From a twitter post

Matheny was fired after starting 47-46
Shildt was fired after a 90-72 season
Marmol is 86-110 over the past two seasons and still has a job.

What has happened to this organization caring about winning?

Tickets are already sold, DeWallet doesn’t care if they show up to the stadium or not.

That sequence right there sums up how
dumb the Cardinals are at baseball.

Get a 2 run double with 2 outs to tie it and get thrown out by a mile trying to stretch it to 3rd for no ****ing reason at all.

Hey dumb**** you likely score from 2nd on a base hit with 2 outs anyway.
