Except he didn’t sign with the cubbies to not be the face of a franchise...he signed with who he thought was a better team and better chance to win the world series, and this was proven by the division series last year.

Grow up already, says the guy that’s offended by something a sports blog writer said.

Why do you keep insisting they grow up when you’re bitching about a website on that website in multi-paragraph form?

And you’re not hearing what you want to hear? Waino legitimately said “Heyward didn’t want to have the burden of being the cornerstone guy, so he took less money to dodge the pressure.”

If it wasn’t the right situation for the Cardinals, then why did they offer him a contract to begin with. The cardinals are so Midwest it hurts. You self promote and silver line yourself about how great you are until you believe it, knowing full well you are full of shit. Middle child syndrome at its finest. STL…

So many angry Cardinal fans on here. Maybe, if you’re team didn’t keep saying self rightous things about a player who was with you for one year, Deadspin wouldn’t write about them.

All Wainwright did was talk about how great he and his buddies are and how Heyward is a coward. We might all be used to the Cardinals’ classless “me-first” attitude by now, but it doesn’t make it any less of a blight on the game.

But it would have been the right situation for the Cardinals if Heyward signed the deal, right Adam?

This man and organization are so salty that I can taste their tears.
