A few days ago I was talking about the lack of class by Cardinal Fans for their bashing of Brewer Catcher Lucroy during the All Star Game. They blamed him for the Cardinal Ace and All Star Game Starter getting lit up for 3 runs in the first inning. They whined that he was calling a bad game and that he was tipping the pitches to the other team.
I still stand by my assertion that those that sought out social media to whine and blast the catcher for their pitcher's struggles are idiots and morons. Those are the fans that lack class and show the world the Cardinal Faithful in a very bad light.
However, I stand Corrected on the fact that all Cardinal fans are that way. I have heard from several fans personally and read many more in social media who are trying to save the image of the Cardinal Fan base. Many agree that Waino as they call him struggled. They also have placed blame rightfully so on him for his comments about grooving pitches to Jeter.
I stand corrected and hope to see and here more from the Cardinal Fans that are true fans and not blinded by some misguided notion that they are the greatest in the world. Everyone has bad days and everyone struggles. You also have to tip your hat to others when they are on and having a good day or good season.
Thank you to the Cardinal Fans who have sought to restore the faith in sportsmanship.
