Maybe we should have the Cardinals bring all 11 of their WS trophies to the Braggin Rights game each year! :D

I'll be at the game and fondly remembering the White Sox win in 2005 and lobbying for Shoeless Joe Jackson to finally get unbanned and make it into the HOF where he deserves to be.

Lots of troll jobs in this thread. Kudos.

Now if you don't mind, us CHAMPIONS are going to appreciate the unquestioned champions of the baseball universe, The Chicago Cubs. Just need to decide how I explain skipping out on my 3 week old and his mother for this. šŸ˜†

I'm a diehard Cardinal fan. But the Cubbies won it all and deserve to celebrate all they want.

Obviously tons of Cub fan in CU so good on them to bring the trophy and display it. Don't see a dang thing wrong with it.

Pitchers and catchers report in 2.5 weeks. Let's get it on again and let the best team win:thumb:

They're (the rest of sports fans in general) already starting to turn on the Cubs and their fans. Give it another year or 2 of success and it will be full blown hate. The Yankees and redsox always deal with it. The Cardinals have for the past several years. The Phillies in the late 2000's, the Giants currently, the braves in the 90's. It's cool to hate a team that's successful, and it seems like the tolerance drops a little more each year. If the Cubs are going to be as good as everyone thinks for as long as everyone thinks you better get used to it

Only one of many reasons to hate the Cardinals and (almost) hate their fans as people.
