I enjoy Bernie more, he may not be as connected but I still enjoy him.
I didn't care for his recent article when he seemed to insinuate the goal isn't the division but just staying in and getting a WC spot to say you made the playoffs.
I mean, the teams moves seem to say that though so what do I know.

That's not anything Bernie or Goold have 'insinuated'.
That's a direct !@#$ing quote from Bill DeWitt. He said in an interview with Goold that their goal is 90 wins.
My friend, that ain't winning you the NL Central.
You don't have to insinuate what the Cardinals goal is. You don't have to extrapolate it from the moves they make. Bill DeWitt has flat out given it to you.
He's won everything there is to win. He's done everything there is to do. Bill DeWitt has no realized that there's more profit in being competitive than there is in doing what it takes to make yourself a championship team. He knew full well that Harper would've pushed them towards the latter but the sunk costs of Fowler plus the cheap production of Martinez and O'Neill can get him to the former. All while making him a lot more money.
This is an easy team to dislike right now.
