Seems earlier than normal but I think I'm ready to hang up my Royals fandom for this season.

They are shooting to be statistically out of the race in April.

That's in the past. This year's team seems to have some game. Been fun to watch, especially compared to the way they have played in the past. Go Royals!

The Cubs could learn something here - the Royals have assembled an actual major league starting rotation (at least 4 good starters in Guthrie, Shields, Santana, and Davis) and they improve. Good for them!

I am going to the Royal's vs. A's game when they come out here to Oakland. Go A's.

I noticed you haven't been watching the A's this year. Since they are winning and all.

Same ol' Royals. At least the thread made it to May this year.

After the 3 game losing streak, I was getting that old feeling. Great win lat night, and now home against the Yankees. Sure, there will be lots of Iowa and Nebraska license plates wearing Yankees stuff.

Ewwwww. I would sooner wear psyclone apparel than yankee, and I'm serious.

And so we stand at 19-16 and rapidly sliding back towards mediocrity. Such high hopes I had for this season. Sigh.....................

It's another Grantland piece (from a week or so ago) that is long, but there's some good stuff in here (well, bad stuff) for Royals' fans.
