I've never been around large groups fans of any other big league team for an extended period of time but I can't imagine there is a bigger group of pious fans who pat themselves on the back as much for being 'gritty' 'intelligent' and 'classy' as St Louis fans.
Most of my best friends and family members are Cardinal fans and that makes it even worse. Each year I have to listen for days about how (insert slightly above average Cardinal) got jipped out of the MVP or the Cy or the ROY awards. I have to endure the endless jabs directed at Pujols, the stupid memes they post on facebook, the catchphrases such as 12 in '12 or now 12 in '13 not to mention the lame Cubs comments to noone in particular since there are no cubs fans around. I have to play fantasy baseball with a league full of them where Molina, Beltran, and Wainwright are locks to be gone within 2 rounds. Only in a Cardinal league would a trade of Scott Rolen and Jason Motte be considered a fair return for Evan Longoria and Clayton Kershaw.
Yeah I hate the Cardinals, their whiney fans, their whiney team, their announcers and that turd of a city with its stupid Lumiere casino where I lost $200 one night playing poker.

Maybe the most perfect post I have ever read.
