Nedrick "chews out" team, guarantees his demise?
13Is it just me, or does the appearance of occasional "the manager chewed the team out and they played just great afterwards! Just great!" story kick off a death clock for Royals managers?

Post your Farnsworth/Ankiel Trade Party photos
You didn't have your party yet? What the hell are you waiting for? Here's a shot of Minda and me celebrating the trade and the win with improvised confetti, less-improvised beer, and hats that...
Kila Ka'aihue: 45 BB, 1 Wrecked Beeramid
May 27, 2010. Johnny Rosenblatt Stadium. Dollar beer night. What started as a drunken whim near the third-base dugout became an ironic metaphor for the career of Kila "Archibald 'Moonlight'...

I Quit As A Royals Fan (Mad Lib)
The five remaining Royals fans are ready to call it quits.

JoePo: Fire the whole team
7Well, not really. But in a KC Star column, he shies away from going as far as "The Firing Squad: Dave Owen Edition". At the end: I’m not blaming Hillman or the coaches or any specific players for this. To be that bad at something, it takes a full team effort. Well yeah. Plus you wouldn't want to get banned from the Royals. [Edit: I see now Craig based his work on a JoePo blog post. Updating this fanshot appropriately.]
Offday 6: Offdays So Boring They Cause Crime
How could I keep from doing an offday post once I realized the direct correlation (and therefore causation) between offdays and brazen robberies? 100% of all robberies directly outside my front...
Offday 5 Open Thread
This is only the fifth offday? Ugh. And it's a mere three games until the next one, with another following weekly until June 29. Dig in, everyone. It's gonna be a rough month of Mondays. S...

Whooo-weee!!!!

Offday 4 Open Thread
Wow, I was so bored I forgot to create the Offday Thread. Things could be worse, I suppose. This should be Offday 5, but that Opening Day rainout spared us. Maybe I should make Rainout Day...
Offday 3 Open Thread
It's safe to say that the last three weeks have been the most entertaining stretch of my entire life. But alas, Offday 3 is upon us. Our wussy players have to be a bunch of wussies and take a...

Bloomquist is red-hot Royal
8The story itself is startling, but here's what I want to know: whom do we blame for all this talk of "the hot hand?" Especially "riding" it? I hear it all the time, and I hate it.

Greinke on the importance of the SI cover
11"So it’s a mistake. They’ll probably sell their least amount of magazines in a long time — except when NASCAR was on the cover."
Offday 2 Open Thread (Debut: FRNS)
Welcome, welcome, to another glorious offday. I've noticed a delightful trend this season: one hundred percent of all offdays follow days with games in which Kyle Farnsworth blew it (or Trey...
Offday 1 Open Thread
After a glorious nine-day streak of pure Royals baseball, we suddenly jolt to a halt so the wussy players can have a day off and travel to Texas like the wussies they are. We fans aren't so...
The Question That Haunts Us (Poll)
Nobody spoke of it, but all felt it stirring deep within them. In the depths of their souls, primal and amorphous yearnings shifted like layers deep within the earth. A tense silence seemed to...
I. LOVE. COX. CABLE.
Ummmmmmmmm... Ignore that last Fanpost, mkay? Kristen Peck personally called me to let me know that Cox finished the negotiations, and Cox will carry all the games. Heh heh. Oops. ...
F*ck Cox Cable
EDIT: Because I consider it some of my best writing, I'll leave the below FanPost intact, but it is no longer relevant. Cox has finished negotiations and will carry all 140 games. ----- "MLB:...
KC / Omaha Cheeseburger Crisis
Two vital Midwest cities face an unprecedented threat. It may be that Billy Butler and Sidney Ponson split their devastating appetites between the two cities. However, citizens of Omaha and...

HOLY CRAP, TREY! This might just be the KC Star Horrible Pixelated Photo of the Year. Some trick of photography makes it appear as though Trey's knuckleballing arm is about to consume us all.
Offday 8 Open Thread - BORINGBORINGBORINGBORING
What do you do on offdays? Me, I stare at the blank TV, feeling desperate. I might go catch an Omaha Royals game, if they're in town. But they're definitely not in town today. Yup. ...
Offday 7 Open Thread - I've Never Been More Bored In My Entire Life
O Offday, like the moon you are changeable, ever waxing and waning; hateful life first oppresses and then soothes as fancy takes it, poverty and power: it melts them like ice. Offday -...
