But hey those announced attendances of 30k with 12k actually in the stands are something we are supposed to be proud of our something...they're lucky people love those cheap ass giveaways enough to go grab them...then leave. [Reply]

But Mozeliak says it's not fair for fans to be frustrated by the direction of the organization.
His fucking arrogance is just beyond comprehension.
Can you imagine the shit he says behind closed doors? [Reply]

How does #stlcards POBO John Mozeliak react to fan perception about the organization?
Mo joined #TheOpeningDrive on the Home Opener to talk about the @Cardinals start to the season, the early impact of VSII & the team's commitment to compete.
"We're trying to be competitive and not just get 3 million fans through the gates..."
{shuts down Latin American Academy}
Tell me, John - how do you reconcile those two things? If you're trying to win, how does shutting down an international pipeline help? Oh I know why you did it - it's not free and ultimately the fans don't notice it until the players get up at this level. So it's money spent now for a return 8 years from now and that's not how you guys do things.
You can spend money on an Andrew Kittredge salary dump instead and then tell the fans "We're trying to win!" and hope to keep your ticket sales up.
It's just so damn obvious how little this team cares about winning BEYOND what it means at the gate. They want to win if it draws fans. If losing drew fans, they'd be fine with that as well.
This team has zero aspirations for actually being a competitive ballclub. They want to sell tickets and winning is a necessary component of that. That's all. [Reply]

It really sucks that the front office doesn’t give a shit about the product they put on the field. I have made it to the point in my life I can afford tickets to a shit load of games, and to take my dad. Make memories, enjoy time together, but I will not give that club my money [Reply]

Eh - the appear to have finally gotten it through their idiot skulls that extending Goldschmidt is a horrifying idea.
If they're smart, he's playing 1b in Memphis everyday to prepare him for 2025. And if they do that and let him focus on hitting, he'll be a strong player for them.
But they're very stupid. So they'll probably have him playing 3b or something. Maybe CF. [Reply]
