The St. Louis Cardinals are moving out of “frustrating” territory and they’re headed quickly toward “embarrassing.”
It’s not a lot of fun to watch a team when there are two choices: It starts the game flat and never finds a way to get its rear in gear or else it gets ahead but you can never feel comfortable that the advantage is large enough that the club can’t blow it.
The Cardinals enjoyed early leads in all three games of their road trip to Wrigley Field to take on the Chicago Cubs. And they blew those leads. Every. Single. Time. Disgusting.
It’s miserable watching this team because it makes you feel like the other shoe is just waiting to drop. I hear some Cardinals apologists complain that people who turn off the television to avoid the heartburn of the local team’s sloppy play aren’t “real fans.” Let me put it to them this way: I might be a fan of my mother, for example. And I like to spend time with her. But I’m not interested in sitting there and watching someone slap her around for three hours.
