The LA Dodgers lose their playoff series 3 games to 1 to the St. Louis Cardinals. Top thread in /r/dodgers asks Cardinals fans to not say "Good series." Cardinals fans show up. Entire thread is loaded with drama.

If you have time, do yourself a favor and read most of the comment chains in the thread. Slapfighting everywhere.

Eh, hem..... Go fuck yourselves. Seriously. You bunch of whiny, crybaby pussies wouldn't know championship baseball if it fucked you in the ass. Oh wait, it just did. It has been for a while.

I dunno, let them have their peace. The mid west is a dick shit place to live and they're about to have 5 straight months of straight bleak shit weather.

I've had enough of the KKKards and the Best Fans In Baseball. The only way I'll ever visit St. Louis is if a flight I'm on crashes there.

You guys are pathetic. Pay to have a great season and get first rounded. Good job on that high payroll with nothing to show for it. And get your whiny as players and fans in check, complaining about every game they lose. Fucking shameful losers

You weak fucks are asking for hate right now with this post. Glad your boy kershaw got wacked. Choke artist. And puig couldn't hit it off a T. Lol at your payroll. Inflated and not helping you win. You unemployable dodger fans need to get careers and get off your asses. Grow up and root for a real team like the cards or Giants. Any team is better than yours! Ha!

Giants fan here. Your squad looked scary good. I'm glad you got punched in the fucking gut. Fuck the dodgers. The world series is not for you. Eat a dick, mattingly. You're the only manager who can make Kershaw lose. As a manager, you're worse than Matt Williams. Orange October Edit: fuck you, Brian Wilson.

And just wait until you get to the hidden comments at the bottom...

get your racist ass fans in check dumb hicks

Says the la fan. Whose city is famous for gangs of one color fighting gangs of another color.

We could end racism if everybody would just change their shirts.

"You can't become a Crip. You gotta be born a crip!"

Yay fashion

[u/out_stealing_horses]

Have fun getting beat up and shot at by gangs.

Isn't St. Louis one of the top 50 murder per capita cities in the world? I don't see LA on that list.

[u/walkthisway34 → u/out_stealing_horses]

I feel like a lot of people outside California get their impression of LA from 80s/90s rap, as well as movies and TV shows about the LAPD and gangs. LA is nowhere near the worst of American cities when it comes to crime, but I see insults like this hurled so often online.

[u/bigcalal → u/walkthisway34]

Yeah, SoCal is way safer than St. Louis.

[u/DblackRabbit → u/out_stealing_horses]

The numbers for St. Louis are a little hinky because for most the city and surround county are together, where St. Louis County is not part of St. Louis City. Its an annual thing where everyone has to have a rant when the 'Top X dangerous cities' articles pop up.

[u/out_stealing_horses → u/DblackRabbit]

Yeah, I used to live in Wellston/U City during grad school, so I remember all of that being an issue. If you look at the MSA murder rate though, it's still not better than LA.

And a new merge will happen when the Cubs win the world series

[u/mrpopenfresh → u/out_stealing_horses]

East St Louis is one of the more dangerous cities in the US, but it's actually in Illinois and not Missouri, so I guess that makes things complicated.

[u/out_stealing_horses → u/mrpopenfresh]

I got lost over there once. The worst thing I remember is that it seemed to be engineered very much in a way to keep you in, and not let you out, like I couldn't get back on the interstate like one normally would, and instead I had to drive around this area, and this was before the days of GPS. Then someone lent me a book about that little township that's by the airport? I can't think of its name anymore, but it had an incredibly rich history and used to be a middle class black township, there used to be an airfield there where teddy roosevelt took a plane ride or something. Anyway, the book detailed how the city reacted by effectively walling the township off with the construction of an interstate and an actual wall, and how it had a pretty devastating effect on commerce. And now the town is like the typical north st louis city wasteland.

edit: Kinloch. That's the one. It still had segregated schools up until 1975! & here's the book.

[u/nocturnalis → u/bodnast]

Vin's voice is the best voice to try to read anything in.

The Cardinals have been successful for so long they've acquired a substantial surplus of shitty fans.

[u/DblackRabbit → u/CantaloupeCamper]

Listen we're very busy with a lot of shit, the craft beer / Busch wars have taken a lot out of us, we can't screen everybody.

[u/bitterred → u/DblackRabbit]

I think we can screen some of these guys out pretty easily.

[u/bodnast → u/CantaloupeCamper]

Every team has their bad fans. This thread just seemed to bring them into the open

[u/sterling_mallory]

My favorite exchange in that thread:

(Dodger fan): At least we get our NFL team back.

(Cardinal fan): Enjoy.

[u/316nuts]

You have a few links that need to be switched from www.reddit to np.reddit

Please and thank you!

[u/pepperouchau]

Ayy lmao, this is the culmination of so many r/baseball jerks and counter-jerks. Since my team was kind enough to choke before the playoffs, I can just sit back and munch popcorn with y'all.

[u/bodnast → u/pepperouchau]

It's incredibly enjoyable as a Giants fan. I feel like this thread was the breaking point for a lot of fans, total chaos

[u/triforceofcourage]

I posted about this in r/Cardinals after they won yesterday, but it bears reiterating. NBA, NFL, MLB, CFB, DON'T FUCKING GO INTO THE OTHER TEAM'S SUB

Read, fine. Converse during the season, fine. But don't fucking goddamn go into their sub after a series or beating them to "congratulate them on a good series" or whatever bullshit you concoct to rub it in their faces. Jesus fucking christ. Team subs are a place for fans to vent and be salty for a while. Don't be the asshole that everybody hates on the sports subs.
