Autocorrect fucked me there, and I was running out of time to finish typing and post. Meant to say John Elway. D’oh.

Re: the fans:
You know Cardinal hatred has reached its ridiculous fever pitch when idiots start comparing the team and its fans to Nazis.
All is forgiven, man. To be sure, there are many Cardinals fans I would punch in the nads myself if I got the chance, especially the racist ones. Also, while I enjoyed watching Jason Heyward play and was disappointed when he took his stellar defense to Chicago, I wouldn’t have dreamed of sending him hate mail over the…
Yeah, I get the hassling. I’ll do it to Dodgers fans sometimes. But Deadspin borders on obsession over this shit. Not surprising, considering the parent company, but still.
We both used facts, actually. Well, maybe it could be argued how good the 2011 Rangers were, and how close each playoff series was, but the main difference between his post and my reply is the time period our facts reflect.
Because the Cardinals, out of all the teams in the MLB, must be focused on with all of your impotent fury because....why? Because of a narrative that was sold by major media a few years ago in an attempt to make the Dodgers look like the team to root for? Because of a fan stereotype that’s mostly been perpetuated by…
I didn’t realize that making fun of people for the jobs they hold was suddenly cool again. Thanks for letting me know!
Short memory you seem to have. 5 years ago, the Cardinals were 10 1/2 games out of first place and were trailing in the wild card race... In September. They went on to get the wild card, beat the Phillies in a close series, beat the shit out of the Brewers in a not as close series, and won the World Series against one…
And Deadspin’s “Cardinals losing” series keeps losing views. Last week’s article is at a little over 11k views. This one’s barely cracked 7k so far. I wonder if it’ll gain four thousand views over the next week in order to keep pace with last week’s article? Nah, probably not.
Man, it’s gotta be killing you guys. It’ll be at least 6 days since this article went up before the Cardinals will possibly lose again. (And they’re playing the Astros, who aren’t very good).
Give the Cubs the victory in the NLCS last year, which would potentially result in them fulfilling Back to the Future’s prophecy by winning the WS. Also, I would love to see the party that breaks out in Chicago when they win the WS.
You really think the Cardinals are going to go 28-92 for the rest of the season?
Is it wrong of me, despite Roland’s track record of stupid films, to be cautiously optimistic for this movie?
Ironic, since the Cardinals completely fucked the Angels in this series.
I don’t care if he’s a good pitcher. I’m so glad the Cardinals didn’t extend this asshole’s contract.

Oh, this is nothing. In the original Iron Man, Tony used one of those gimmicky slider phones that everyone (in this case, LG) was releasing before smartphones really took off. It was painful to note because not only was Tony video calling with it (despite that feature not being available on it, and the phone lacking a…
Since the Cardinals have only lost one series after their initial three losses against the Pirates, and currently lead the league in home runs, and their rookie Aledmys Diaz is the best hitter in the league so far this season (making him the 2016 equivalent of Kris Bryant so far, whom Deadspin couldn’t report enough…
I love Jose Fernandez. He’s just so full of joy no matter what he’s doing. I still remember when he caught a screaming line drive from Troy Tulowiski as casually as if he was picking a flower, and his grinning response when Troy incredulously asked “did you catch that?"
