Regarding that link to the Post-Disgrace...

There are some real titanic asshats who posted their “thoughts” after that article.

I’m as PO’d as anyone about how the Blues pissed those two points away, but these twits calling for everyone to be fired and/or traded, and asking if it’s baseball season yet, can all go straight to Hell as far as I;m concerned.

I’ve been bleeding Blue for 40-plus years, I’ve seen this franchise through it’s darkest days, and I’m not about to abandon it now. The fair-weather “fans” — which includes pretty much everyone at The Asylum, and who are posting to articles at the P-D website — can kiss my pasty-white ass…

And this is why I stop reading riiiight when I hit the comments.

Ditto when I read the Cards’ articles – those same rejects opining about baseball season on the Blues blogs pollute the Cards blogs too with retardedness.

Oh, if only VeB had a sense of humor.

Reporter: There`s a "stamp out the Beatles movement" underway in Detroit. What are you going to do about it?

Paul McCartney: We`re going to start a campaign to stamp out Detroit.

I agree.

I bleed Blue. I have for as long as I’ve managed to draw breath here on God’s green earth and will continue to until I die. Possibly even after. Those morons on the boards over there A)Are bandwagon fans and B) Know NOTHING about hockey. I refuse to read the comments. Afterall, how many times can you read Trade Jackman/Brewer. This whole mess is there fault.

Barret Jackman is my hero.

Fueled. These new shores burn. Shadow, my sweet shadow, to you I look no more.
