Get real man
I am one heck of a lot more real than you are dude. Look, Edmonds made some sarcastic comments directed towards the Cards/Tony La Russa that he should have kept to himself. As far as this b/s about who gave up on who goes, the Cards didn't give up on Edmonds:
"If I had been there, somebody would have had to go," Edmonds said. "I think it's great that it's working out for everybody.
And if he were to to still be here, we possibly if not likely would not be in second place. Funny thing is, I remember everybody saying after last year that Edmonds was all washed up, had nothing left in the tank. Yet the Cards - even though they wanted to trade him to the White Sox - did what? They acknowledged Jimmy's request to be dealt to a southern California team which ended up being the Padres. And speaking of the Padres, they too saw saw the real Jim Edmoinds when he could only hit less than his weight. If Edmonds were to be playing anywhere else, like I said before, his stats would be showing more of his real age. Do you johnclay3 still wish to say that the Cards gave up on Jimmy Ballgame?
So, you're saying that he should be loyal to the cards, but you dont?
WOW. Talk about having the blinders on. Can you see anything at all with those thick blinders chump? Yes, even I should be loyal to the very team that I claim to be my favorite. And IF you were to take off those ugly damn blinders you could actually see that I'm being more loyal to the Cards than Edmonds is.
Please refrain from the 5 year old argument here that "he started it"
Ok, I will refrain. I will say instead that this whole mess got started when he did the one thing he should not have done if he were to be as loyal to the Cards as he claims to be and sign on as a Cub. You need to get real dude. Like the only team out there for him to sign on with was the Cubs? He had numerous others that he could have signed on with. But did he? No. Instead he singled out the Cubs so he could get back at the Cards for trading him. Or for so-called "giving up" on him. Oh, please excuse me for only telling the real truth as is.
And one more thing. Not only is Edmonds saying sarcastic things about the very club he claims to be loyal to, but he's also being a hypocrite. Correct me IF I am wrong but didn't Jimmy say when he first inked his deal with the Cubs that he called the Cubs to "voluntarily" play for them? But yet in yesterdays article by Rick Hummel, Edmonds was quoted as saying "These people called me." ? Edmonds thinks he can sweet talk the Cards fans into believing anything he says and they will continue to adore him because of what he accomplished here. Well, not me. Either he was lying then or he was lying to the "Commish" Rick Hummel.
Northsiders 2123, nice try. But you're gonna have to do a lot better than that to get me convinced that I'm wrong and you are right.
Go Cards!
