After making us follow the carrot on the stick with the 2007-09 seasons the organization has once again drifted into laughing stock territory. All the respect we got coming within a whisker of a world championship has been spent. The same ol' Cards are now alive and well and we are back to being the most pathetic franchise in all of sports. Not so long ago I used to be able to venture out into my South Jersey area wearing my Cardinal gear with pride. Now it's back to the snickers and pointing and the ribbing I take at work. 38 seasons as a Card fan has been an exercise in masochism. The only team I root for without a championship in my lifetime and as with a lot of Cubs fans, I don't think it's ever going to happen unless a new ownership group can buy this team because as long as the name Bidwill is attached to this team, it will continue to be a laughing stock. I'm not the type to bail on a team but this team is making it harder and harder to root for. You guys who have season tickets should sue fir fraud.

I aint embarrassed, we've always been like this. Dissapointed sure, but I'm used to that as well. I like a poopy team big whoop. I think it takes better fans to follow crappy clubs, the fair weathers get weeded out and all. Akuna matada on the mental status, if my face is red it's because I painted it, to root for my poopy team.

The only thing I got going for me this season is that #1, Eagle fans don't have a thing to say and #2, one of our 4 wins came against them so i'm safe in that manner.

And me, as the reporter would have chimed in, "You're the one who brought this cast of clowns in there Cholly".

Eh, I'd have said...."Some have said I'm worth trading up to draft in the 5th round."

I'm not embarrassed but I'm not proud of my team either, it'd be nice to be and was for a while nice to be proud of them.

The pity gets old.

The strange looks get old.

The chuckles get old.

They need to hire a GM and stop mucking with it, the Packers are owned by some ownership group including the fans and they have a GM and they are a winning franchise.

Our owners can't stop making decisions and the results are out there on the field and have been for decades but they can't resist the temptation to make the calls.

I think a trained Chicken would make better decisions.

Yeah, Cards flirted with respect for a couple of years but now they're back to the joke they've always been.

Can't wait to hear the excuses. Since 88 ownership said the reason they couldn't compete was the stadium. What's the excuse now?

The excuses will stem from the "tried, but failed, while daring greatly" school of thought.

Never embarrassed but eternally frustrated.

They are the home team and I will always root for them and be a fan. Hell, I was a fan when they were in St. Louis so I guess being the "home" team is irrelevant too :sad:

Still early but taking it on the chin today at work. Comments range from mocking to pity.

Yes we are in fact a laughing stock once again.

NJ, it's worse for us. When you're a loner in a sea of Green, a loss like this is devastating. Eagles fans were in it with me when we were both stinking it up. Now that they have won, and we get destroyed, Ive been deluged with calls, texts, and voicemails asking what the hell happened. I can't wear anything Cards out. Just want this week to be over.

It's easy when you live in the area they play. Try doing that in another team's area. I can't even drink out of my Cardinal coffee cup anymore. Oh, here are the Cards on draft day:
