Thank You Cubs Fans

by tcyoung on Sep 17, 2008 2:56 PM CDT

So apparently we didn't need a new coaching scene inside the dugout to light a fire under the Brewers' collective asses. All we needed were some stupid Cubs fans.

When I saw Prince yelling towards the dugout after his second jack, I figured that he was proud of himself and making sure his teamates saw it.

NOPE.

Prince said that he was jawing at some fans behind the dugout who called him 'Cecil'. It has been said for decades that fans of the Chicago Cubs are the 'stupidest' and 'worst' fans in all of baseball, and they showed why last night. Prince Fielder has shown over the last two years that if you make him angry, he will turn into the Hulk. Multiple times, after being knocked off the plate by an inside pitch, Fielder has sent the next pitch over the fence. The man has a short temper, and it doesn't take long for him to strike back.

The Cubs fans should have known that, I mean, it's not like we play in the same division or anything.. Over the course of the season, the brewers have lit up the scoreboard by having just 2 or 3 guys playing red hot. If we get hot and make the playoffs, I'm thanking you, Dewey Dugout Cubs Fan.

You truly are stupid.

*****************************************************************************************

Allow me to clarify my own post.

I feel like I came off a little to harsh and hateful. I didn't mean to attack all Cubs fans. I am a Brewers fan who enjoys LOVES this little rivalry. I like most Cubs fans. Did I make sweeping generalizations in this post? Yes. From my experience, there are two types of Cubs fans. Those who go to games to cheer on their team, and those who go to games to root against the other team. The former is the type you can have a conversation with, buy a beer, and talk baseball with. Those are baseball fans, and intelligent people. The latter are the type that want their team to win for the sole purpose of gloating. If they could put a gigantic arrow above their head that says, "I'M GLOATING AND YOU SHOULD BE MAD AT ME FOR IT," they would.

These fans are not baseball fans. They would rather see a fight than a home run, and they're flat out disrespectful. And most of all, they're unintelligent.

I'm should have pointed out that in the original post, that I was just talking about the fans that were heckling Prince Fielder. I love heckling, (Hey Fat Elvis, sing me jailhouse rock) but Prince Fielder is the wrong man to heckle. When you get under his skin, he plays well. I was not talking about Cubbie Nation.

As for big brother complex? It's not big brother complex. I suppose I'm jealous of the size of your fan base. (I wish Brewers fans could fill stadiums in San Diego and Florida. I'm in absolute awe of the Cub Nation) But Milwaukee doesn't have a dislike for the Cubs because Chicago is Milwaukee's big brother; We just don't like the cocky people.

And for the record, I said that I'm thanking you, Dewey Dugout Cubs Fan... not Cub Nation.

well...he was hitting .400 in the last week leading to this game...

so, I wasn’t shocked that he stayed hot. But he stayed hot in good fashion:)

Should we be flattered that Bleed Cubbie Blue members checks this site with such regularity? I’m not sure I’ve been to their site…ever.

You should come over sometime....sailor.

Really though…It’s good to get a different perspective from other teams fans…I enjoy reading this and other teams sbnation sites. Lot’s of interesting info you can’t get from the teat of ESPN.

I visit Bizzaro BCB. I’ll post once in awhile, especially when we play the dirty club to the south. Usually answering odd questions (Like who’s Uecks announcing partner). The key is to NOT troll or acting the ass. I hope you don’t get trolled by Brewers fans, and please stop having random Cub fan posting your lucky number mockingly after you win and we lose.

We will do what we can

but there are some dunderheads that are out of our control, and I do not support their actions. I would venture to say that most of the posters at Cubbie Blue do not support their actions

search for keyword "troll"

i’m guessing you can do that on google search using site:brewcrewball.com

In any case, just a couple days ago we had one.

You are so very welcome Brewers fans.

I like to read this BCB every so often to get a perspective on other teams… I mean I feel Im a smart Cubs fan, and I think its unfair to state that we are truley stupid? I mean the guy behind the dugout just might have been messing around. Come on… this has been a friendly rivalry, and we should keep it that way. Check out BleedCubbieBlue, you will learn that we do know baseball over there, just like you do over here. Next time we are in Milwaukee Ill be sure to laugh at the 70% Cubs fan crowd for being idiots with you, because if they are being morons… well, every team has moronic fans

The Cubs fans at Miller Park booed the Ike rattled Astros as they took the field.

I’m sure it wasn’t all of you, but that was low.

I have an unreasonable dislike of Bill Hall.

This has not been a friendly rivalry

I’ve been to Brewers-Cubs games in both Miller Park and Wrigley and there is nothing friendly about the majority of the ass-hats that follow the Cubs. Cubs fans appear unable to win, lose or even show up with anything resembling class.

LOL...

It has been said for decades that fans of the Chicago Cubs are the ‘stupidest’ and ‘worst’ fans in all of baseball, and they showed why last night.

You get to put up a fanpost with this “fact” and me calling your first baseman “Fatso” is off limits?

Back to good ol' BCB santos

Al doesnt allow banter about other teams there, so Im just going to return now

This reminds me of the Cardinals brouhaha

If it takes fans or players from another team and not, you know, the race for the playoffs to wake up the team, something’s messed up in the clubhouse.

I missed that during the game last night

knowing the history between Prince and his father, his reaction doesn’t surprise me. correct me if im wrong but I vaguely remember hearing something towards the end of last year about how Prince wanted to get to 52 because his old man never did and that would shut him up.

You don’t even need to dig that far to tell they’re idiots.

Remember that 1-2 count foul tip by Jason Kendall? Why the hell did everyone in the stadium go mad like they won the WS when it went to the back stop…? Anyone?

They aren’t baseball fans, they’re just there wearing Cubs junk they bought off the street, brought in, and pretended they follow baseball. The same people who flood that clunker ball park are the same ones who had Sox 05 WS Champs hats on.

Can’t say the true baseball fans there get any real people to respect though. Soriano curtain calling in the 7th Inning of a 2 run ball game…that guy is so in love with himself it’s pathetic.

A Post about classing things up! It’s good to see all the Cub fans aren’t Goblins or brain eating Zombies….

ummm

The Cubs still won the game and you just lost your 2nd best pitcher tonight. Do you want to blame that on the Cubs fans as well?

Look, I actually like the Brewers. I hope they win the WC. But this is a really stupid comment made by the original poster. It screams sour grapes and a real “little brother” complex.

That said, flame away on me if you must. I like your site (read it often) and hope you guys get that WC.
