Do you wanna laugh your butt off ? Go back on this thread to pages 18 & 19 and read post after post dissing the Cardinals . Boy, oh boy, thank goodness the Cardinals don't have players who 'throw in the towel' . Reading those two pages on this thread , you would have thought the game was over and the team lost and posters wanted to vent. Talk about giving up ! Yikes, it was post after post .

After enduring the horror of 2023-24, every poster here has earned their right to be negative of this team. *Especially in the clutch considering how many games they blew or losses they snatched from the jaws of victory these past 2 seasons.Bob Kunush wrote: ↑05 Jun 2025 15:46 pm I just liove reading in Page 19 how all the negative nancies and constsnt complainers threw in the towel and started their typical insulting of everybody.
Having them be wrong again is ALMOST as good as the win. Almost. But this was a much needed hard fought win and another indictment if the current stupidity of removing effective starters. The Royaks started was dealing. I am ready for that trend to start reversing some day. We can only hope.
As soon as Helsley gave up the tying run in the 9th, I knew the Cards would choke in the 9th. Seriously, VSII, Vilade, Pozo? That's the best this org could muster in the 9th? Ugh! I then KNEW the Royals would score their ghost runner because, let's face it, every visiting team scores their ghost runner against us.
Was pleasantly surprised they came back, though. Nice to see Contreras take the affront of Donny being walked to reach him and shove it down their throats.
Final note, I have no clue what to do about KNado. He's killing this team. The only thing keeping his WAR from being negative is his defense. What a pathetic sack of sh*t.

Hey, Bob ! You and I must have ESP for as I was writing my post for page 21 , I had not yet seen what you wrote above.

Though, I guess to be fair, Matheny ball would've never put up seven runs in the first place. But they sure fought back like Matheny ball.

Its not really fair to hang a negative label on the 2025 team because of the previous years. This team has fought hard all year and come back from being knocked down enough to be supported and not constantly doubted and second guessed in games like these. Those extra innings loses were early in the season before they had their footing.blackinkbiz wrote: ↑05 Jun 2025 15:55 pmAfter enduring the horror of 2023-24, every poster here has earned their right to be negative of this team. *Especially in the clutch considering how many games they blew or losses they snatched from the jaws of victory these past 2 seasons.Bob Kunush wrote: ↑05 Jun 2025 15:46 pm I just liove reading in Page 19 how all the negative nancies and constsnt complainers threw in the towel and started their typical insulting of everybody.

My only point is they have earned enough respect in 2025 to not be thrown under the bus everytime something goes wrong or they have a few off games.

One bad game where they didnt fight back and their Matheny ball? They had a five run lead disapeer then went down by three all.in the flash of an eye.They are human. I think they were a bit despondent and shell shocked. They have fought hard all year. I think are due one here and there.Strummer Jones wrote: ↑05 Jun 2025 16:05 pmAs one of those Page 18 guys...yep.

Re: GDT : Cards vs. Royals (6/5) ~ Game 1 ~ 12:45pm CDT
Agree with you , Bob ! Quite interesting to see that some think that due to past teams that 'posters have earned a right to be negative of the 2025 team' . That's a new one on me ...especially during the game that has not even been completed .Bob Kunush wrote: ↑05 Jun 2025 16:09 pmIts not really fair to hang a negative label on the 2025 team because of the previous years.

Unfortunately...the ANONYMOUS nature brings out the whiners and winners who hide in their basements.
Go Cards!!

I'd find that acceptable if we were dominant all season long and someone finally landed a punch on us.

LOL....the same bozos show up whenever the team loses.
Gloating over a possible loss then crawl back under their rocks when they rally!
Still wonder who these chumps are????
Re: GDT : Cards vs. Royals (6/5) ~ Game 1 ~ 12:45pm CDT
Maybe they should play "Wont Back Down" by Tom Petty after a home win.
