Same as I was, with less tact and without offering a positive alternative. At least innings didn't go over your head.

Yes indeed. More of Ned in the process's life. None in ours -- the royals baseball club. Maybe the process can take Ned on a life long vacation or let him move in. Please the process-- whichever it may be -- Please take Ned with you. Oh! Do not let the door hit either of you on the way out!!!!

Let's consider the money that the Glasses have given up in lost revenues because of the way this home stand started. The average non-premium ticket price is about $22.00. The average attendance for home games this season likely has dropped because of this debacle by at least by 2500, if not quite a bit more. So, 75 games X 2500 X $22 = $4,125,000. Ol' Ned and being cheap isn't such a good deal after all.

There was a 33-year old man who put a bid in to buy the Royals in 2000. He has been a resident of Atlanta, Georgia and heads the largest privately held, family-owned spirits company in the world - a company which in 2007 had revenue of $5.5 billion dollars. He is supposedly a Royals fan.

His name: Facundo Bacardi.

Which means the Glasses will only make 20-24 million this year instead of 28 million...don't think they will be hurt too bad by it. And I suspect in lieu of taking a $4 million hit, they will just shed some payroll to try and "shake things up."

What ailes this team really isn't that hard to pinpoint. Accountability, high expectations, hard work & doing the right thing...same as in every other part of life. And those things haven't happened here for about 20 years.

Ewing Kaufmann fired Whitey Herzog because he finished in 2nd place in 1979. What would Amos Otis have done to George Brett if in 1974 he'd tried to bunt with a game on the line? This team didn't lose 10 games in a row until 1986....17 years of existence. Now, its an almost annual occurance.

No one is accountable, least of all the owner. The expectation is to get by. Is it any wonder really good players refuse to sign here? And doing the right thing is clearly optional....see the firing of Frank White.

Hey Gordo, I wonder if you would be brave enough to tell me who you are where you live? Where I grew up it was just another day to find someone dead in the trunk of their car, man just disappeared off the face of the earth, most of them where most like ground up and fed to the pigs after their teeth were pulled out. Seeing people disappear was an everyday thing. You have balls enough to talk about my mom, let's see how big they really are. Remember the movie Casino? That's how I grew up! How brave are you?

-I know "Your mom" is a little different.. but in today's world, today's jokes.. It's not really an insult to your mom.. It's just a joke. Very hard to describe.. But I'm sorry I used it in the way I did..
-Kind of like saying "your ga/y" these days.. it doesn't mean that your actually a ho/mo, it just means your stupid, an idiot, etc..

-But btw, sorry about your mom.. i realize it's hard when their laying there in the hospital and you can't do anything to help them, it tears you apart.. If anyone realized I was gone for about a week at the beginning of April.. I lost my grandpa. It's hard to go through, as that was the first person I had really lost that had been a big part of my life.. So my sincere apologies to the comment I made, I wasn't thinking at the time.. I realize the "your mom" comment is something I should only say around my close friends that I know it won't effect them.. I hope everything is going well, and she improves.. My thoughts and prayers are with your family..

PS: If you still wanna meet.. I'm down, but maybe on a different occasion and I can make it up by buying you a beer.. even though I'm not of age lol I'll give you 5 bucks

Apology accepted. I did not say much at first because I have had a very emotional week. My moms surgery went well but the recover is going to be helll
on all of us, but at least there is a light at the end of the tunnel. I apologize myself to you for how I vented tonight. What I said about how I grew up is true, I wouldn't change it for anything. Please be careful of how you approach your words on here, it's a Fun Page and we are wanting the same thing, a World Series. Take care and you can have the Beer, I will stick to my Crown. Have a good night! And thanks again for the message.
