I wouldn't call this "embracing" him.
Look -- I fucking HATED Jim Edmonds, but after I realized that it pissed Cardinals fans off to no end to see him on the Cubs (especially when he started hitting homers), I loved the acquisition.

it can't. I feel the same way. Once they become Cubs, they're cubs.

There are Sox and Cards that I would never accept as Cubs no matter how they played.
