I grew up and lived in KC from 1970 to 1991 with an interlude for college at Iowa State University. Since then, I've lived in Florida, North Carolina, and since 1997 Seattle. I've remained a Royals fan since leaving but it's been in a loose, perhaps indifferent manner. This was due to extreme weariness at their horrible travails as well as simply a cooler attitude towards baseball in general.

However, when DM was hired I chose to have hope again and have been fiercely following the Royals and watching many, many games on mlbtv.com.
