Morris Wins Idiot of the Year

Matt Morris from St. Louis Post-Dispatch:

Morris said, "What's sad is that these clubs [the Cardinals and Astros] could go right to the end, battling and each team winding up winning three games while the Cubs could sneak in there unscathed. That wouldn't be fun.
"We've been battling way too long to expend our energy and then have the Cubs win."
Morris said, in fact, that if the Cardinals didn't win, he hoped Houston did. "I really have a respect for their players," Morris said. "When we compete against them, the games are intense but they don't have that, 'I want to kill you, I hate you' attitude. When it's over, it's easy to tip your hat to the other side.
"It's just the way they go about it and the way we go about it. There's professionalism involved."

Yeah winning 4 out 5 against the Cardinals had nothing to do with it? Sureee Matt Morris. For Matt "I am an Idiot" Morris we just got thru a month and a half of playing teams mostly over .500. Basically since the all-star break our schedule has been murder.

As for the, "I want to kill you" attitude, did you get the memo from Kerry Wood? Maybe one needs to plunk him in the skull, because something just isnt right in that boys head.
