Reminds me of that viral video of the kid post-dental appointment, in the backseat of a car, still drugged up on dental drugs. Feeling the affects of the drugs he says, "Will it be like this forever?"
Seeing that the Cards' rebuild is about 3.5 months in, it's a little embarrassing to suggest it will take 5 years.
What surprises me aren't the CTers against the rebuild, but rather the ones who don't understand it and have no idea what they are looking at.
The 2026 team could be better than 2025.
By 2027, IMO, they will start spending money.
Like you really know anything.
I mean, you were ecstatic about all their moves the past 5 years or so.
Every pitcher they signed, you were there to post the positive spin.
However, none of their moves ever panned out to be worth a (bleep).
And here you are promoting the unpromotable.
Once again going to prove your 2 cents are more like 1 cent.

I guess mine is too. The team is on the right track and I expect them to begin competing to be a playoff team again after this season. He's right too, about having several people on here who have no idea what they are looking at. They rage and rage against the "incompetence".

What moves are your talking about?
You know.
A HOMER from the word go.
I’m waiting…
You were a major defender of Fowler.
You loved the Matz signing.
Andrew Miller
Greg Holland.
There are probably other too.
You missed on all of the above dude.

Miller: I didn't love or defend it.
Matz: I didn't love it either.

I think you need an Alzheimer's scan.
The idea I ever championed those signings is funny. And though I defended Fowler in 2019/2020, it never implied that I thought signing him to 5 years was a good move.

We'll see.
I'm saying they will compete for a wildcard spot after this season. My definition of competing for a playoff spot is that they will be in the hunt (not eliminated) until the last week of the season. They may even make it in. Wouldn't that be awful?

Fortunately for you, this board lost all the data from that time period.
That's the only thing you have going in your favor.
We can't go back and find those posts.

Just to be clear, I'm not cheering against this team at all.
Au contraire, mon frère.
I just think a major rebuild, such as this one, takes longer.

What if I told you that there was a magical computer/TV device thingy that everyone owns and fits in their pocket and you can use it to push a button that will allow you to watch a game wherever you want?
