The Royals? Seriously?

The Kansas City Royals have been playing lousy baseball for just too many years, I think most of us can agree on that.

So today is "Opening Day" and the weather sure hasn't helped out in this respect, being cool, gray and rainy but additionally, they're playing the "Other Worst Team in the MLB", the Detroit Tigers.

Ugh.

So I'm thinking if you're out at the stadium today, for opening day one of a few things can be said about you. You're there for one of the following reasons:

1) You REALLY love the game of baseball (and if so, good for you) or

2) You have "more money than God" and what the heck, you don't need to be at the office anyway, or

3) Someone gave you their ticket so what the heck, or, finally,

4) You love the Royals stadium and the whole baseball experience and it's been a long, cold, ugly, gray winter so what the heck.


Play ball!

I think everyone goes because it's the only time of the year that it's for sure we can be tied for first (or last).We always have a darn good team until they take the field.

I think you're right. On opening day, we're equal even with the Yankees.

Besides, as it turns out, some sun broke out anyway, and it got up around 80 humid degrees. It had to make it all worthwhile after all.
