Man I'd love to meet some of you old CPers and have you educate me about the glory days of this franchise.

Pick a side, or please you must wear a shirt with a flow chart whenever you are at a sporting even explaining yourself.
I live less than two hours from kc and up until about twelve years ago all you could get even on the radio was cardinals and Chiefs games. No royals at all.


That why people are fans of the two.

Yeah, screw those people for choosing to spend their free time watching winning teams... take pride in your shitty local teams, assholes!

It still blows my mind why none of the ****ing Sedalia stations don't carry the Royals.

The Cardinals grew their fanbase in the 50's due to KMOX broadcasting their signal all the way to Colorado, up to Minnesota and down to Texas. Not many games on TV at the time, Baseball was popular on radio at the time too.

It certainly also helped to have Stan The Man on the team. I've talked with fans from that era. People viewed Stan The Man with reverence, an ideal to aspire to. Thats not even close to happening these days.

Royals and Chiefs players visited Bob Dole's grade school in Nevada every year. Was a pretty effective way to recruit fans.
