Why do we trash the Chiefs and Clark Hunt but not David Glass and his Royals?

Today, in The Kansas City Star, there are articles, of course, about today's last football game of the season for our Kansas City Chiefs, telling of how, likely, we're going to be beaten--and beaten badly--by the Denver Broncos on their turf, literally. There is also an article summarizing this season, just finishing, as well as looking forward to next year's football.

And it's rough.

It's rough, as it kind of should be, on Clark Hunt and the Chiefs, both, since their season of this game has been so dismal.

That's understandable.

But what gets me is why and how we all seem to be so tough on this football team and this owner and all connected with it but that we seem to give our Major League Baseball team, our own Kansas City Royals, and their owner, David "I'm a Greedy Miser" Glass, a pass. We take it so easy on him and his team, it seems.

Maybe it's because the Chiefs season is so brief or maybe because the seats cost so much. Maybe it's one of those things.

But whatever the reason, with the exception of one Joseph Accurso who wisely and fairly started and created his whole "No More Glass" and a few local sports commentators (like Jack Harry, see link below), it seems Mr. Glass and his team take some shots but, by and large, he (Mr. Glass) and the Royals didn't take near the verbal and printed beating in the city that the Chiefs and Clark Hunt are now.

And the thing is, I think Clark Hunt and the team management are far more invested financially, personally and professionally and take the season with far more commitment than "Mr.Greed", David Glass. I think it's far more one of contrast than similarities, between these two owners.

I say, come next Spring--and it's just around the corner--let's get, be and stay far tougher on Mr. Glass and the team to win and to get that same team of ours deeper into the season as a winning team so we get far closer to a pennant race than we have been in years, if not decades.

Here's hoping.
