KC Royals

I'm only a casual baseball fan, but gotta rep the Royals for what they've accomplished (and will ideally continue to accomplish this week) after 30 years of futility. These guys remind me of Carolina in that their style is against the grain of current trends in the sport, though much more so last year than this year, but the guys have completely bought in and never give up.

Huge game tonight.  KC does not want to give back the two games they won against Harvey and deGrom

The Mets blundered this one away tonight, but they got a bit lucky with that second HR anyway. Difficult to see the Royals losing the next 3, even with the strike zone differences...

The Mets need their big three to sweep the next three.  Unlikely but it is hard to see a team better prepared to do it.  One more win, good luck Royals!

as someone without a horse in this race its pretty hypocritical for royals fans to bitch about being thrown at considering they did that poo all year in the AL Central and threw at Donaldson multiple times and told him to quite whining when he complained about it. can't have it both ways.

Right or wrong, I think fans are more annoyed at the loss than anything - 30 years of losing (plus the Chiefs' decades of playoff futility) has folks starving for a WS win. Had KC won I don't think we'd be hearing much about it at all, so some folks have to grab onto something since they didn't.

Either way, it's 3-1 now and this city is going to explode if they pull it off.

    • i think i go in the opposite direction of most. my ideal retirement is living in some old downtown area in a flat above some shop or something.  life out in the country was just something i got real tired of. My kids actually miss some of living out there, which i understand. that was where they grew up for the most part. 40 acres with a 2.5 acre pond. it was beautiful, but also way too much (and too expensive) for me to keep up with. 
    • FLASHBACK: I remember back when ESPN was just starting--he was their anchor.  They used to show stuff like Rodeo and field hockey--I remember laughing when he went to a commercial mocking a cycling competition in Utah (or something similar--I made that up) and I laughed.  I told my dad, "We may have us a new anchor when we get back from commercial."  When they came back from commercial, Berman was looking very serious and he said, "Any comments by me do not reflect the views of ESPN....The men and women who cycle are dedicated athletes and we are honored to shine light on their sport." (Paraphrasing).  Dad laughed hysterically. My first memory of him--and that was like 1980.
    • Might not have a team without them. Although that probably applies to the Panthers, too.
