I wouldn't want to show my identity if I posted that junk, either. "Fans don't play the game." Really? I'm shocked. We might not play the game, but we are responsible for the product on the field. Take a look at payroll with teams who have fans that fill the park and teams that have fans that don't fill the park. You might see a connection. "Neither of these teams have talent to win the NL" Again, another solid post from you. Just kidding....absolutely pathetic statement. Yes, it is still April, but take a look at the standings: Cubs and Cardinals have the 2nd best record in the entire NATIONAL LEAGUE. Thank you. "...beacause it is the biggest pile of crap divison" Wow. Where do I begin? First of all, the NL Central has 3 teams that are playing as good as anyone. Cubs/Brewers/Cardinals. All 3 are capable of winning the division. Take a look at the other NL divisions. The NL East is the only other division that has 2 teams with a record greater than .500. The NL Central has THREE teams with great records. I think I prove my point. "Ryan Dumpster actually makes the team worse" Coming into Sunday, "Dumpster" had a 2-0 record with an ERA of 2.37 and a WHIP of LESS THAN 1!! WOW HE IS TERRIBLE. I have no idea who you are or what you do for a living. But the next time you make a post, please provide some facts instead of nonsense. Everyone who read your post is now dumber for having read it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul. To the genius who posted the 2nd comment….Nice job on not providing your name.

The fact is, neither of these teams has any talent to win the NL. Granted the Cubs will probably win the division because it is the biggest pile of crap division, but they will not beat the Mets/Phillies/Braves/Dbacks/Dodgers in the playoffs because they are not a good team. The team that got swept in the first round of the playoffs added a 30 year-old Japanese player coming off arm surgery and Jon Lieber. They also made Ryan Dumpster a starter which actually makes the team worse. They are nothing special. The Cardinals are just a bad baseball team. Terribly written article by the way.

Not only is it very one-sided, but its completely wrong. Note to the writer: Unless your name is Jay Mariotti, you shouldn't show your true colors in writing. Please explain the "A loss for the Cubs is nothing new" sentence. Who had a 78-84 record last season? And who had an 85-77 record? Interesting. Enjoy calling the Cubs "lovable losers" because that nickname won't be around for too much longer. The future with this organization looks bright. Wish I could say the same about the team from St Louis. I will give ya props on "Americas most dedicated fans." Glad to see your article wasn't a complete failure. Wow what a horrible article.
