lboros calls it a season for Cards

Because I am a terrible sports fan - The Worst Sports Fan in St. Louis™, as a matter of fact - I don’t understand even half of what Larry Borowski of Viva El Birdos is telling me about restructuring the St. Louis Cardinals for the future. I do, however, appreciate the way in which he tells it:

before i dive into this, a disclaimer: this is not a “blow up the team” discussion. admittedly, the notion of blowing it all up might lower the collective blood pressure of greater st louis — dump this bum and that bum and that piece of crap, they all SUCK!!! — but that’s useless talk. the cardinals aren’t going to go this route, and they’d be stupid to. it’s not constructive; ya gotta look for solutions. as i wrote in the comment thread yesterday, the process has to begin with a discussion of what type of players the cardinals need to add, not which disappointments they should punish with a pink slip.

That attitude informs all of VEB and makes it a sports blog community worth visiting, even for lousy sports fans like myself.
