Wow

First Royals Manager Joe Gordon elected to HOF

He's the lone player elected to the Hall of Fame by the new revamped veteran's committee. Congrats to Joe Gordon. However I've got to wonder exactly what he did in the past year to push his vote total from 12% to 87%. I'm all for a more open hall of fame so I'm disappointed he was the only one (not really sure he should have been the one in if only one was going to be elected).

Danny Rios - anybody have a Royals photo?

One of my friends just set up an autograph signing with former this former 1998 Royal. I'm trying to come up with a Royals photo of him (even a photo from a yearbook would be great - he may be in the 1998 yearbook - which is, of course, the only one I haven't been able to locate). I have his 1999 Omaha Golden Spikes card but would love to get his auto on a Royals item.

Thanks in advance.

RIP Bruce Dal Canton

I've read on a couple other message boards that Bruce Dal Canton (Royals 1971-75) passed away on October 7. This has been a terrible year for Royals alumni. We've never lost more than 2 ex-Royals in a single year. This marks the 5th death of 2008 (Lance Clemons, Steve Mingori, Bill Sorrell, Todd Cruz are the others).

Hopefully this will be the last one of 2008. RIP Mr. Dal Canton.
