It's a tweak-of-the-nose thing between friends, I think.

Yeah, apparently no one has checked out Waino's GIF library.TimeForGuinness wrote:Deadspin is Deadspin...but is no one going to complain about what a steaming pile of turd that Nightengale piece was? It's so Stepford, it's nauseating.

Re: Your annual Deadspin Cardinals whining
After reading that Deadspin piece and Nightengale's, I'm left wondering what the editors at both places were thinking.

Awesome. Makes me want to go to a game.You expect these guys to all drive a Ford Taurus to work, buy flannel shirts and jeans off the rack at Walmart, and eat spaghetti and meatballs every night at Olive Garden.
"We are boring,'' Cardinals general manager John Mozeliak says.

Now whenever I read a Mozeliak quote, I'm going to imagine him saying "bro" at the end.Spider John wrote:I found the whole schmeer hard to read.
And it's hard for me to believe Mo actually said this in the Nightengale piece:
"As a GM, we made exploratory calls,'' Mozeliak says, "but ultimately, we didn't feel like making that type of splash. But yeah, you still make the calls.
"If you don't fish, you don't catch, bro.''

The Cards are so boring they don't even have a football coach as their first base coach.

You know, I'd never actually seen a picture of Drew Magary before. So, here's a gif of the guy who leads the online Cardinals hate brigade.
My God what a douchebag.
