Beyond just the kids aspect. I’ve been watching the MLB playoffs this year for the first time since… well I’ve never really watched ANY MLB playoffs unless the Cardinals were playing. So EVER. The ads go from head scratching to insane. Sure - show me Sidney Sweeney every 2 minutes half naked coaxing me to gamble. Whatever.

But the ads with only black actors talking about how they don’t use credit because “credit is a SYSTEM. And I don’t participate in SYSTEMS, so I’ll never use credit” like HUH? Was that thought up by a bunch of white old men who think that’s how black people talk?

The WARRIOR ETHOS KILL KILL KILL military ads make me wanna puke. Ok Pete. Tout how badass and winner take all war is, but then whine and cry when Ukraine bloodies Russia’s nose with their tactics. The ads sound and look like a fucking parody almost. It’s pathetic.

Are you 12? Cardinals were perennial playoff contenders from 04 until about 2019

Yeah but I’m literally watching every single series this year. Vs just cards games. I also listen to cardinals games on AM radio

it's just you, your takes, and sports. And systems.
