So #BRL... that was the youngest player in baseball punching out Beltre to lock down the save.

How can someone hate the Cardinals? Really though? They are nothing like the Yankees other having a long history of mostly winning games. The fans fill up the stadium even in bad years and they don't get a ton of publicity. Their squads are always built on young well rounded guys like Carpenter and Grichuk around tough, key veterans like Molina and Holliday, and their pitching staff has put together one of the better seasons in recent memory after losing it's ace.

Is it just a "hate them because they win a lot of division titles" thing?

I don't hate the Cardinals, but then again the love affair between White Sox and Cardinals fans is well documented.

He has had a down year no doubt. Came off the DL way too early. Has had a lot of big (dare I say clutch?) hits this year but not your typical Beltre year.

He's barely hitting and when he does it's a single.

The teams I'll pull for in absence of the White Sox generally goes vaguely like this...

1. Giants
2. Brewers
3. Pirates
4. Cardinals
5. Mets

None of that is set in stone, and I'll usually pull for players/managers I like once the Sox are out of contention. There's probably a good chance I'll be pulling for the Blue Jays this year on account of Mark Buehrle.

I just want some answers. Red Sox, Dodgers, and Yankees fans are all on another level wen it come to fa base douchebaggery, yet it seems like people want to lump the Cards in with them just because, "hey look, they win a lot too...douchebags!"

He has been pretty good this month but yeah not a ton of pop.

Every team has great fans and every team has douche fans.

The Texas Longhorns overall have the worst fan base I have ever come across. But I have met some super nice Horns fans. Case by case basis I'd say.
