Stay classy, Braves fans.

Long live Stubby Clapp!

Can't see video at work, but am I correct in assuming he's covering Glenn Fry's "The Heat is On" in a Cards version? Because I've heard that, and it makes me want to crawl into a hole.

He was also a veritable fountain of grit. So gritty.

Now, let's not do anything drastic...

To be fair, Eckstein was so tiny as to be difficult to tag.

If I could, I'd be making more money than I am now. Idle speculation on my part, but I'm in Austin so I assume there's someplace around here that would have that.

I bet if you went to the right places you might...

Same here. God, I teared up just reading that.

To be fair, Tim, Punto and Schumaker got major portions of their grittiness from their days in St. Louis. Just sayin'.

You said it better than I ever could have. It's just trolling, and you just can't feed the trolls.

Yeah, sort of. His was so over the top that I just felt like someone was screeching in my ear the whole time.

As a Cards fan, thanks! It has the makings of a great series. Deadspin seems to just be having a ball trolling the Cards fans right now. It probably doesn't hurt that the founder (Leitch) is a Cards fan.

Yeah, I'd just gotten my book signed by him a couple of months ago, and I liked the Postmortal. I get that this was Deadspin trolling Cardinal fans, and I suppose it's nice that everyone is noticing us for a little bit. However, I had no idea the level of hatred that we actually inspire...

Deadspin's hard-on for hating the Cards this year is remarkable. But, hey, we're just glad someone is paying attention.

I don't know about that...everyone else seems to be talking about it more than over ever heard Cards fans talking about it.

Your tears are delicious, Drew, but I really don't understand why this article wasn't just titled, "Fuck You, Leitch".

Never.

To be fair, they moved our actual football team to Arizona in 1984. That's how you have so many Cardinals/Bears fans.

Nice to meet you, too.
