Solid victory last night. I went to Opening Day and did a generous boo to ownership and management. Everyone looked at me like I was crazy. BFIB actually think they are trying! [Reply]

You give them a .500 team and they worship you like dietyies [Reply]

Cards are the kings of coming in 2nd place trying to land big name FA players. [Reply]

I have no idea how this group in here can see the disaster of the fromt office, how cheap our ownership is but at the stadium, if you boo, people look at you like you're a Cubs fan.
If we all see this BS, why cant the BFIB sitting in those seats at Bush see it? [Reply]

You could get tickets in decent seats for the game last night for less than $30. You could get outfield seats for under $10. [Reply]

ahhhh thats good news. Thanks for the info. [Reply]
A team that 'is trying to win' is playing Victor Scott at the big league level. I feel like that's really all that needs to be said.
Myles Straw got waived. He's no impact player but he's an elite defensive CFer who can hit .250 from the 9 hole and not embarrass himself. Victor Scott, OTOH, is a guy who got drafted in the middle rounds 2 seasons ago and who's never played above AA (and had fewer than 300 ABs in AA at that).
They had no business at all bringing him north. They're just cheap and out of ideas. [Reply]

Yeah - the stadium yesterday looked at least half empty for the debut of Gray against Wheeler. That should've been a hell of a draw. It wasn't.
The reason people look at you odd in the stadium is because the people in the stadium are the only BFIB sheep left. And there's only about 25,000 of them any given night.
The rest are staying home. The Marmol extension took a lot of starch out of this fanbase. They see that the entire organization is on auto-pilot. [Reply]

Man DJ, I know you want them to win but your standards are ridiculous. If hitting .073 with a .270 OPS isn't good enough for you then you will never be happy. [Reply]
