The Royals

[Dr Rick Daris]

have i ever been this excited for a baseball game? probably. do i remember it? no, not really. oh my god you guys, that was ridiculous. i was 100% sure we wouldn't win and then stuff and then stuff and then stuff. that was 2013 OU for the people that were there. amazing.

except for the winning part?

I think he means 2012. Forgive him, 'bias. He probably had one too many bud light limes tonight.

actually meant '03. i remember having tickets to that big12 champ game and being kind of sick and thinking wow should i drive an hour in the super cold or just sit and watch. ended up going and wow...i'll never let something small get in the way of the possibility of something like tonight. if you can go to something that might me a semi once in a life time- do it.

Makes even more sense now. My dad wouldn't let me go to the '03 game with him because he said it was too cold for me. I was not happy. I wish I wouldn't have agreed to extend my two week notice with my old job. I would have been able/ went to the game tonight.

Guys, Hud came down our parking lot row in a golf cart before the game. Gave him a high five, it was great.

[ksupamplemousse]

A guy gave him a baseball to sign and Hud said, "Thanks, but I've already got one of these" and put the ball in his pocket. He was totally kidding though, he took the ball right back out, signed it, and gave it to the guy.

I fell asleep at 3-7. Just started catching up, but I'd like to thank kc for continuing to do his thing. Crap, how did I fall asleep?!!!!  (sd, you were right)


Gonna win 'em all!

This thread is a treat to read, especially pages 983 and 984. Teared up a bit watching the highlights on ESPN, and then again reading this thread when we came back to win.

Question: Is Finnegan the best Royal of all time?

[slobber]

I read 'em all. Good work ITT tonight guys.
Some really great post game comments.
Whatever in front of us, we ran it.

You did the right thing last night.  The sacrifice had to be made.

Guys how great would it be if I stopped watching now and when I check in the morning we won it?

Yeah, you posted this about the time I fell asleep. Was pretty great to wake up at 3:00 this morning and read your post.

Hosmer is the best at celebrating, among a great group of Royals celebrators.
