Because Cubs fans need to be brought down a notch when they start getting cocky about winning 4 (omg four!!) whole games.

Speaking as a Cub fan, I can say without question no real Cub fan is "cocky" about having a good record against St. Louis this year. The feeling is more along the lines of "That's great, now if only this [censored] team could play well against everybody else this season might not have been a total disaster."

djj, all of your posts have been completely and utterly ridiculous. To think you would have a mild concept about baseball or the cardinals is absurd. Before making anymore posts you might want to do some research.

Also, we'd win 100 if we got to play you guys every game.

Just curious here: do you actually believe that the Cubs are a vastly superior team to the Cards, and just unlucky in every other game they play, or do you think that the Cubs are on the sweet side of variance against the Cards and closer to true form against every other team they play?

I think the Cubs are in the Cards' heads. Look at how Pujols hits and Rolen fields against us compared to everyone else. It could just be variance, but maybe not. Also, the Cubs really hit the ball against the Cards' pitchers. I think we just match up well.

Once the Cardinals get to the playoffs, anything can happen. I'm sure you know that, after seeing good Cubs teams get bounced from the playoffs in regular fashion. Enjoy another 100 loss season.

Not really sure why you have to be a dick in every post, but whatever.

no, it's not like I care. It's just dumb, that's all. Pretty standard I guess.

I have a hard time believing that Rolen is out there at third thinking, "Oh God, its the Cubs! I'm not going to be able to decide where to throw in time!"

Anyways, I like when the Cards play the Cubs because generally at least one game will be on ESPN and/or the others have a good shot of being on WGN, which means I can actually watch the game without going to a bar.

Do you also have a hard time thinking that players in New York think Oh God I am in Yankee Stadium. I can't pitch or hit now.

At this point the Cards need to move Wainwright into the starting rotation. There's literally no downside and all upside. The pen is a shambles with or without him. Let him start and maybe he can eat up some innings and help avoid the pen going 5 innings a game.
