Why Cardinals Fans are Mad at David Ross
Another day, another group St Louis Cardinal fans complaining. It seems like anytime there’s any sort of baseball news, Cardinals fans are up in arms over it. I’m not sure if they are just an angry “get off my lawn” bunch, or if they are a group of whiners? I’m leaning towards whiners at this point.
So why are the Cardinals fans mad at David Ross?
David Ross elevated to ESPN’s No. 1 team for Sunday’s Cubs-Cardinals at Wrigley
Yes, that’s why. Because David Ross will be in the top crew for the Cubs-Cardinals game. Yes, I’m being serious.
Before we show some of the outrage I have to say – it makes sense for ESPN to do this. In fact, with all of the layoffs and firings in Bristol, this might be the smartest decision they’ve made in a long while. With Ross on their game broadcast staff, why wouldn’t they they use him during that game? He just won a championship for the Cubs. He is a social and national story because of ‘Dancing With The Stars,’ so wouldn’t it make perfect sense to put him on that game?
Now on with the nonsense…

I've never seen such a mediocre player get glorified so much. It gives me the runs.

Well, guess Cards fans will always be the same.
Kinda makes up for the times we (Cubs fans) had to put up with Tim McCarver on national broadcasts. And, I’m sure, Ross won’t be berating the Cardinals, like McCarver used to berate the Cubs.
Yes, David Ross was a back up catcher for the Cubs and he still played in more games than Saint Daryl Kile did for the Cardinals…
I am a proud Cub Fan so David Ross you keep moving on up you deserve it. You did great in dancing with the stars and you still are appreciated by alot of people so thank you
Not one cubs fan cares what the dirty birds think say or do.GO CUBS! 2016 WORLD SERIES CHAMPS!!
