So the Cardinals should not make moves that improve them for the sake of spiting other teams?

You do realize most trades are designed to help both sides one way or another, right?

They aren't making trades to help other teams win ws. They are making them to make themselves better. But I certainly wish it was the other way around.

LOL....I don’t think he genuinely “realizes” very much.

Agreed, Cuse. Like today’s other thread, basically asking why StL can’t be LA.

Just saw that one. It is even dumber and by a wide margin.
I suppose giving Trolls some negative attention is a decent thing to do?

I’ve often wondered if this is a parody account. Then again, median IQ is allegedly 100, so…

Ah.....who knows?
In the end it’s harmless and usually I ignore that stuff.
But once in a while....when I know people are messing with me....I poke at them back for laughs.
Fortunately most posters....like yourself...provide good back and forth dialogue which is what I come here for.
Navigating the Trolls with their one liners is no biggie.
The one I wonder about is ME-ville.
SMH.....major nut job there! LOL

Back at you! I enjoy the dialogues.

Mel is fun. Sometimes I like playing along with him. Sometimes I like playing straight man and seeing where he takes it. Often he has a take the piques my interest and I ask for follow-up. I get along with him and like him, and have fun watching people react to him. You poke and prod a little for fun. Some people seem to get really spun up over him and take him seriously, which is funny to me. I’ve no idea why he does what he does, other than to get a rise out of people. It’s not my thing, but as you say it’s all harmless, so what the heck?

Sadly....he is knowledgeable about the game and does have good takes.
I told him that I would enjoy discussing baseball with him(and I have on a few occasions) when he skips the nauseating self promotion.
He won’t for whatever reason??
