Stupid Cards Fans

How do world series victories, played against a different team, factor into a rivalry? As the Yankees/Red Sox can attest, a good rivalry can still happen even with one team in a multi-decade drought.

And as for the link for the original statement, here you go.

So the only place it can be found is on a jaded scrubbie fans' blog, who obviously is sore because everyone got on his team for booing his players. Yeah, I'll take that for fact.

Personally, I asked my uncle, who was working the board at the time, and he said it never happened.

Ignoring facts again?

The Cubs lead the all-time series 1,137-1,072 through the 2007 season (by comparison, the Yankees lead the Red Sox by a bigger margin in their rivalry). They are just as even in National League pennants with the Cardinals claiming 17 and the Cubs winning 16.

During the LaRussa era over the past 12 years, the Cards lead 97-84. That's still pretty close - especially as the Cubs took the season series the past two years at least.

Dude, when you have to refer back to a time when the Ottoman Empire still existed in order to contend for the compe iveness of a rivalry, you lose.

Just keep talking, and I shall unleash my ballista on you.
