I dislike that Red Raindog is legally insane. LOL. Look, I love to golf just as much as the next SANE person...but that's kinda nuts. You into snow-golf too?

Re: Things I dislike.

I dislike the Pirates
I dislike the Brewers

I dislike the Giants
I dislike the Phillies

I cannot speak of the other teams in the division, as this thread only covers dislikes and my feelings for them are far stronger than dislike.

Re: Things I dislike.

I dislike my batting average from last season - need to bring it up a few points.

I dislike the area cardinals fans who are going to stop going to the local minor league (Midwest League A ball) team since St Louis changed their affiliation from the Quad Cities to Peoria.

I dislike the fact that Mediacom cable doesn't offer the MLB network

I dislike the false humbleness of athletes who thank god for sports feats while children starve around the world - the greatest form of arrogance I've ever observed.

I dislike golf.

Dude. That one-liner is going absolutely nowhere. 15 years from now, when we're all ruled by super-intelligent cyborgs - we'll still be saying "But how will Chris Carpenter explain that to his son?"

And the answer will be - the cyborgs will do it for him. But still...

Re: Things I dislike.

I dislike lots of things.

I dislike this pitching staff not providing opportunities to other pitchers last year by making all but one start

I dislike Votto not keeping the beard.

I dislike baseball and hockey not being year round sports. Who needs offseasons?

Re: Things I dislike.

I dislike that The Anaheim Angels continue to claim they are from Los Angeles.

What's next? The Dayton Reds of Cincinnati?

Re: Things I dislike.

I dislike that we don't have MLB Opening Day any longer, and I dislike it even more that our "Opening Day" (against another team who looks very good I might add) isn't being nationally televised. I would even go as far as saying it is a disgrace and very bad business planning.

I dislike when people b & moan when we lose a single regular season game. We're going to lose dozens of them over the course of a season, and we can always go get em tomorrow. It seems like these people have not watched much baseball.

I dislike it when fans overly trash their own players. It's tacky and classless.

I dislike trying to convince myself that I like basketball in this stretch of the calendar.

I thought I disliked rain delays, but I actually think fondly of them during the offseason.

Re: Things I dislike.

I dislike how often Thom refers to Marty as "dad" during a broadcast. There is nothing wrong at all with acknowledging Marty as his dad but he doesn't need to refer to him as such 3-4 times a minute.

I dislike how little the actual hot dogs are on the skyline, cheese, coney dogs.

I dislike seeing base coaches wearing helmets. Talk about overreacting.

I dislike Reds fans infatuation with the very average Sean Casey.

I reaaally dislike seeing umpires at the LL WS Tournaments doing silly YMCA or other dances in between innings. My gawd men!!! Have you no shame????

I dislike the death of the SunDeck.
I dislike the fact that clicking my heels three times doesn't get me back where I belong.
