No, no you didn't get it. If you did, you wouldn't have found it stupid.

Never said the city wasn't in decline. STL most definitely is and has been since the 80s. But hey, it's great to make fun of once a great city that's in serious decline.

I don't live in STL (haven't lived there in 23 years, but that is my "hometown"). At the same time, yes... STL is insular. No doubt about it.

I'll still be here. Thanks brilliant writer! Won't be going away anytime soon!

Yeah you clearly didn't get it.

You do know these articles get cross posted on other Gawker properties? You do know that he was also commenting on STL's baseball?

Never said they were as good as the Yankees. All I'm claiming is despite the small market size of STL, it's pretty amazing from a historical purpose that they have done so well and arguably the 2nd best franchise in MLB history. That to me is saying something, especially where you compare markets where the $ spent…

Not angry, just looking at you pathetically. Nice try though!

Shame

Nah, it makes you close minded. Great try though!

Is it? I find it sadder that someone has based their writing career on making fun of regions they probably have never been to nor have tried anything in that area.

True, but Cards have been in the WS nearly every decade except for the 70s. Also, compare the markets: NY vs STL, SF vs. STL, etc. For STL to be even near the top, with their market size, you have to admit is impressive.

I play a poet on TV.

It's better than American football.

I don't live in St. Louis. And yes, it's a sorry place to where it was once was. Missouri, home of Twain, and the entrance to the West.

Look at history. 11 wins world series wins for the cards. That's #2 in World Series records.

Not anger, I look in disdain at your potential in your career!

Are you mad that the Cards have the 2nd best record in all of MLB and best in all of the National League (the only real league because Fuck the American league with the BS "DL" rules. PITCHERS SHOULD FUCKING BAT)

Who cares if it's delicious?

IMO's Pizza rules. Fuck y'all if you don't like Provel.
