MLB Writer Believes All Cubs Fans Are Stupid

If Phil would have prefaced his article with something along the lines of, “Only meatball Cubs fans should read this,” I probably wouldn’t have had any issue with what he wrote. In case you’re unaware of the term “meatball fan” let me quickly explain.

A meatball fan (for any team) sees absolutely no wrong in their team whatsoever and any decision the team makes is, without a doubt, the best decision in history. They are blinded by their loyalty and cheer their team on with unrealistic expectations. A quick example: meatball fans lost their shit last season when the Cubs lost twice in one day to the shitty Padres.

How can @Cubs even think they're gonna win World Series if they get swept by @Padres

Look, EVERY fan base has idiot fans so I’m not claiming that Cubs fans are the best fans on Earth. However, I do feel that for the most part, they are pretty knowledgeable about the game of baseball and have a genuine love for their team and a loyalty that is unparalleled in the sports world.

Rogers attempt to “explain” to Cubs fans how we should handle the success of the 2016 World Series championship came off as very “holier than thou” if you’ll allow me to use that phrase.

Phil gives us Cubs fans a list of 10 things that we should do before, during, and after the 2017 season because as he puts it, “He’s here to help.”

On behalf of Cubs fans everywhere Phil, I can safely say that we don’t need your help.

He opens up his article saying that we should not be celebrating the recent news of St. Louis pitcher Alex Reyes being lost for the season to undergo Tommy John surgery. Any true fan of sports would NEVER celebrate injury on ANY player, even one on their rival’s team.

Speaking of rivals, Phil goes on to say that we shouldn’t “disavow Dexter Fowler.” True Cubs fans will stand and cheer for Fowler when the Cardinals make their first trip to Wrigley on Friday, June 2. Even Fowler himself expects a warm welcome when he returns to Wrigley for the first time.

Fowler will ALWAYS be a part of the Cubs family because let’s face it, without him, a World Series championship probably doesn’t happen. In addition to that, why hate on a man who took a gamble on himself to sign a one-year deal with the Cubs? Cubs fans understand that while it absolutely sucks that he had to sign with St. Louis, he 100% deserves every penny of that hefty contract he signed and should be thanked for his service to the Chicago Cubs.
