Yes. And I thought when the "celebrations" by the Nationals' fans when they guaranteed a spot in the playoffs was weak as well.
Winning the division? Then you celebrate. |

Fredi Gonzalez says protest was already denied. Unclear how. He says umpires consulted with someone, maybe league official, during delay. |

I haven't seen what happened yet but I keep saying there is no reason for baseball to have umpires anymore. Computers can tell exactly if it's a strike or ball instantly and anything else someone could tell in a few seconds hat the right call is on replay. Baseball being handcuffed to their traditions is the only thing keeping them around.

A computer couldn't have made this call.

Cwood, THAT is why we hate the Cardinals. For a team that mentions class all the time, that is literally the most classless thing they could do.
An actual 'classy team' would come out and say, "Yes, it was a controversial call that went in our favor. Unfortunately, that's part of the game and we were happy to come out on top. The Braves played a great game, but we played a great game too." They wouldn't rub a bad call in the other team's face.
Dirtbags. Dirtbags all of them.

Common sense could have made the call.

Timetable they had to expedite the process |

Who's face are they rubbing it in? They're in their clubhouse. Who cares. |

To be fair, clearly a human couldn't either.

You're seriously excusing that? They did this while the media was in the freaking locker room. They did this in front of media personnel.
This is a team that complains about the lack of class of everyone. TLR complained last year because the Brewers' broadcaster accused him of hitting Braun on purpose (which he admitted to doing a year later) on a Brewers broadcast.
I'll rephrase.
Hypocrites. Hypocrites all of them.

Let'em celebrate, what's it to any of you? They won a playoff round, they go on while our Braves go home. They didn't screw themselves like the Braves did. Respect, Cards fans. Go and repeat.

TLR isn't the manager. Mike Matheny is.
Get over it. |

Next time you deluded group in the Cards thread think we hate your dirtbag baseball team because of their success, think of this.
