“A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty.”

The optimism shines through again. What a joke. I cannot believe someone would say anything so stupid. If that's your attitude on things, you've got a tough life. Why bother posting about the Royals, things will never change.

I can only attempt to project it based on what's happened in the past. Do you live your life like that? So there is no hope for the future? Does pitching beat hitting. The Royals don't have the best pitching staff, but they are doing pretty good(I'm sure you have the beloved stats to say otherwise) ...

As a stat, 4 wins and 4 losses sucks. We cannot be competitive with any good teams. If we could go 8-0, then we can be enthusiastic blah, blah....

So now it has to be against winning teams? So all the 2nd, 3rd and 4th placed teams somehow don't matter. You're kidding right? When you set the bar at winning games, try not to change it every other day. A win is a win or is that not one of your favorite stats?

There's that optimism I've been missing. Jesus, the Royals would have to walk on water to be good. Who would the Royals have to beat to be good in your eyes. Let me fucking guess, the Yankees and the Red Sox etc.. I swear to God, you fucking naysayers won't stop bitching unless the Royal beat every ...

Man, that was a long-winded post. So let's get this right. If the Royals have a winning season, you are ok with that? My guess is that won't be good enough for anyone? I just get so fucking tired of hearing fair weather fans talking this crap throughout the season. If we could just minimize the bitc...

I guess you're dumbfounded. Simple question, are stats the most important thing in baseball. In theory, can a team win the championship with meager stats? Can a team with a high ERA or low team batting avg win. Could a team play .500 ball and win the big game? Not difficult questions, I'm not trying...

Can a team go 80 wins and 80 losses and win the World Series and still suck. Their team batting avg is .250 and no pitcher winning more than 10 games. All their stats are horrid. This is hypothetical, but I'm trying to get your logic. Bad stats make a bad team. What if this team had not the playoffs...

The Boston Red Sox went almost 100 years before winning a World Series. Using your logic, the ownership, the manager and the players sucked. I know your response, they had winning seasons..... But what is the goal of a Major League team in baseball? Is it to pile up good home run numbers, winning pi...

So who are you pointing the finger at? Is Glass the problem. Get rid of him and the Royals will win. Or the same goes for the GM or the coaches. The talent is there, would you agree? Could it be better. Sure. Who is going to open their pocketbook and spend $$$$ on bringing in the talent. We will nev...

Should they be in first place? Probably, but they are 3.5 games back, therefore they suck? :?: To me it doesn't matter if your star pitcher only wins 10 games in a season. Or if your 3rd baseman is stinking up the joint. Point being, at the end of the day, it's about finishing first. Nothing says ho...

I agree with all those things. I say again, 43 games into a season that has 160 games? They may lose 100 games, they may win 90. Hard to predict what will happen 43 games into the season. Forget the past and deal with today. They are struggling, no doubt. But I stick with them, through good and bad ...

Isn't this a bit premature? They sucked on this roadtrip, no two ways about it. So let's just throw in the towel and start the bitchfest. You can complain about the past record/history of the team, but does that predict the future? Just a few weeks ago, people were crowing about how good the Royals ...

Will need a few after that game today. So many wasted opportunities and too many miscues at the wrong time. That game was ours. Probably good for the Red Sox mentality after all the BS. We will see the next couple of games

Who cares about the friggin stats. A win is a win, regardless of who is pitching or how he does it. Give credit where credit is due. I'm sure there will be plenty of criticism when the Royals lose. In the meantime, it would not hurt to be somewhat supportive.

Hey, it's only one game, but good to see the Royals scoring runs. Especially when down four. Has anyone hit a long ball this year? Be nice to see a few homers once in a while

The Royals really suck. Gave up one run the first game and one run the last game of the series. Last year it was the pitching that sucked and now after three games, the hitting sucks. Let's try to keep things in perspective. Let the blabbering begin!

Amen to that!

The Steele bridge in Portland was designed by the same guys who did the ASB bridge. The Steele bridge carries car traffic, light rail traffic and Amtrak train traffic and is close to 100 years old.
