Beat Boston
Back at Kauffmann Stadium tonight. Royals versus Red Sox. Sox fans everywhere. Red Sox Nation has become insufferable since they won the World Series. Before that they were rabidly loyal, persevering, a little pathetic (at times) and cute. Okay, that last one is a taunt. Sorry.
I have friends that are Massachusetts natives and long-time, die hard sufferers of years of baseball heartbreak. They are the real deal because they are always convinced the bottom is about to drop out. I don't mind them. But these people sitting around me? Ugh.
GO ROYALS!
[Update @ 10:56 p.m. - We lost. 8-2. Too much offense. Congrats. You know who you are. Go Royals. Beat the Twins.]
0 for 2 this year in games at the K?

No, 1-3. My stats are much better watching TV, though. :-)

If you think the join the bandwagon is bad there, try coming to Boston. Of course, one look from a true native with their thicker than life accent is enough to shut us wannabees up for good.
You can never break old loyalties though...I wear my Royals with pride (1-0 at the K) and here's to the start of a new chiefs season.
