The Five Most Offensive Cardinals-Cubs Shirts

Categories: Sports
The snarky commenters at Deadspin are loving this controversy-causing T-shirt worn by an always-classy Cardinals fan during one of the Cubs games last weekend. Apparently this was allowed to slide while the wearer of a relatively innocuous "Cubs Suck" shirt was forced to turn it inside-out when he entered the stadium.

So far Deadspin's suggestions for new, soon-to-be-best-selling slogans include: "Hancock is my designated driver" and "Rick Ankiel Stole My Neck Brace."

While these are undoubtedly cringe chuckle worthy, anyone who's browsed the online inventory at Rina Wear, the Ballwin-based makers of the Zambrano shirt, would hardly bat an eyelash at them.

Rina Wear founder Jeff Michel revels in getting people riled up with his T-shirts (and he was awarded "Best T-Shirts" in Riverfront Times' 2008 Best Of issue for his efforts).

Here are the five garments (they're available as hoodies too, for cold weather taunting) guaranteed to get you into trouble with a Busch Stadium usher:

1.  Hitler Cubs Small.jpg
    Because nothing says pure evil like a cute little baby bear logo.

2. 
gaybar Small.jpg
When in doubt, go for the gay joke

3. 
Cubs kill myself Small.jpg
At least it's grammatically correct. 

4. 
windy city blows Small.jpg
Animal fellatio=funny every time
5. 
NO CUBS Small.jpg
Maybe they could adopt?

But really, St. Louis-wide, nothing touches "Sarah Palin: Putting the Cunt Back in Our Country" shirts.

I think all the people that have posted all the rivalry hate words on this website are retarded. Do you all really not have that much of a life that you put your energy into this crap? Get a life people...Put your energy into helping others or something else productive...immature people! Some people like the Cubs, some like the Cardinals and others the Yankees and Astros. Who cares?

I love how everyone can't just appreciate the humor in the shirts and has to start a flame war between the two cities.

What's the old saying? Arguing with each other on the internet is like running in the Special Olympics. Even if you win, your still retarded.

You have to love the little red headed step child St Louis and their hardon they have for the Cubs. "We have the 2nd most rings! Notice us! You guys never win yet everyone loves you! IT'S NOT FAIR!!!"

Bottom line. There is no rivalry between St. Louis and Chicago. The Cardinals win more and Cubs fans don't care. Cubs fans don't think about the Cardinals. Ever. We have the greatest park in the greatest neighborhood in the world and that's enough.

Oh yeah, St. Louis women are pigs (all of them) and our ballpark is full of young, hot tail.

i really hate how cardinal fans would rather dump on another team than cheer for their own. It just shows what kind of ppl cardinal fans actually are, baseball aside.

"Your an idiot" is one of the funniest dumb things a person can say. Dustin..."your" is possessive, as in "belonging to you." The word you were looking for was "you're" a contraction of "you are." Also "hear" is what your ears do. "Here" refers to a location. And since the sun doesn't shine through on a cloudy day, I think you probably should have gone with a different simile. Since your third grade english teacher clearly failed you dismally, you should look up the word "simile" in a dictionary. It's like a metaphor. That was a play on words; but don't worry. You'll understand one day.

Next time you want to post something insulting, at run it through a spell checker. It won't catch a lot of your mistakes, since you have no grasp of the english language; but maybe it will stop your ignorance from shining through like the sun on a cloudy day.

As a Cubs fan I'd just like to say personally that if I see someone walking around Wrigley Field with that Zambrano shirt on I will beat the fucking SHIT out of your racist ass.

I WILL forfeit my ticket and get arrested for the joy of beating the piss out of you. I'm sure there are others that will join me as well.
