Man, we went from "The adorable Royals, Americas team!" to "Americas Villains" in one off season. Nicely done!

_FANw was saying on the way home from the game yesterday that we kind of seem like the Bad Boys Pistons of the 80s.

BITB hates most positive things for our city. The amount of times he wanted to tell listeners he didn't understand soccer during Sporting's championship run was ridiculous.

The Hosmer/Scar comparison is making me reevaluate my feelings about how the Lion King ended.

It's not about the plunkings. It's about our swag/attitude/celebrations/in-your-face-ness that is against the old timers unwritten rules and I love it. I hope the media keeps tucking, it's only going to fuel the team and attendance.

Yeah, he was pretty much saying: "I'm 50 and I'm bigger than Ventura, I'm pretty sure I could take him, so why in the world would he think he has a shot vs. Trout?"

I think it's pretty clear that this is the first season of Major League Baseball that BITB has ever paid attention to.

he's been butthurt ever since they lost/got outbid for the royals rights by 610.

he used to rave about them ('03 especially) and spend a lot of the broadcast on them.

i just would like for people to acknowledge that herrera was about 14 hbp and hitting cain as much (more so) as about the slide. it was obvious to me at the time and the postgame quotes from duffy and cain pretty much nail it down. but the media just wants to focus on the slide.
