im ****ing pissed off
 

At the Royals

Why? We are tied 2-2 in the WS. I'm thrilled with them

If this game holds up, the series is brand new. 2/3 are in KC

but I'm not pleased with this game tonight.

Go home, dingleberry. You're drunk.

We wasted so many opportunities against a shitty pitcher

I used to be emotionally tied to Kansas City sports. Then I grew up. If they win then cool, if they lose... Its expected.

Meh

Yep. **** it.

Monumental collapse, but in the end, its just the one game. Brand new series, its a race to two wins and two of the next three games are at the K.

On the bright side, we'll get to celebrate the World Championship with the KC fans, instead of the SF douche crowd.

Bar tab likely to exceed 16k this time around.

Giants are monster in post season just look at 10 and 12.. they are a completely different team if they make the post season. They are like the New York giants of football. I knew this would be a tough series.

and then you wake up tomorrow and alex smith is your QB

Hope we've got balls of steel at home, because we ain't beating Bumgarner tomorrow.

Why not?

I should have ate a zman sammich today too

Sorry folks!

This is the Royals in a nutshell dude. They lose games They shouldn't and they win when it's unexpected. You can't base the WS on what they did in the playoffs. You just can't do it because it's a totally different type of game. Playing by NL rules, starting pitching kinda sucking right now. Shit like that happens. Even if they get back to KC down 3-2, expect them to go 3-3 and make it an epic game 7.
It's just the way they are. **** man, they weren't supposed to even be here. I know we want that ****ing ring. Shit happens. Let's just chill out and see if Shields can calm the hell down tomorrow and they can do what they do.

Eh, they've beat him before.

Shit happens.

This was a money move by the league to make more and money...

Tonight does not concern me too much. It would have been nice to go up 3-1 but the Giants hitters were in an absolute zone tonight. Games like this happen sometimes. Can't explain it but this series is far from over. We got abused in Game 1 and came out and won the next two. We can beat Bumgarner, he is not invincible.

? How do you figure? Their hitters were in a zone tonight. Can't do much about that.

Your team is 2-2 with every chance to win a world championship. This is the very definition of the end game for a sports fan. To be in the thick of contention at the end of the season with every hope of winning, and pride in your team even if they should lose.

Now it is a best of 3 series. Sports doesn't get any better than this!

Some fan bases get spoiled. We can't even enjoy our one moment in the sun

He's not invincible.

Home ERA 4.03 Batting avg against .260
Away ERA 2.22 Batting avg against .224

If serious, you're dumb.

Some people just expect the worst so they are never disappointed. But it is a glum way to approach life.

This wold have np been much worse if we lost a close one and burned up HDH

KC sports = glum.

True that.

KC sports fans put the mass in masochism.

Truer words were never spoken

I'm absolutely amazed we are here. And I'm excited to see the conclusion win or lose

Who...

are....

you? :clap:

When Prison Bitch is the shining ray of optimism something is very very out of whack

Aye. The wee bastard is listening to me.
We never expected this team to make it further than the angels yet here they are.
Calm down. We would've been just ****ing smitten knowing we had the series tied at two apiece going into game five a week ago.
Let's just chill out and let Shields show MLB what kinda contract he's playing for. He's going to come out throwing some nasty shit tomorrow. Guaranteed.

If we win the next two games and it means Alex and his clone are the QB for the next twenty years then I will gladly sign up for that.

It's all good. For some reason I have a feeling Shields is pitching a gem tomorrow and the Royals win. He's too good to not show up once. He's better away from the K.

My thoughts exactly.

We will win Tonight. :)

That was a painful one to be at tonight. Sitting there and getting shit from the fans was hard. That being said it means it comes back to kc and I'll be coming back to see six and seven and my first visit back to kc in over 20 years

PB isn't a pure pessimist. He's the anti-trend poster. He will always take the complete opposite stance of the majority on CP for the sake of arguing.

Just got back from the store here in LA. Everyone was rooting for the Royals. Was crazy how much love this team was getting everywhere I went...

Ah yes, the ol' "the enemy of my enemy is my friend". People in LA would cheer for Ebola if it was playing the Giants.

Royals ****ing blow, how did we even get this far?

Ok, now people should be pissed. That was one of the most cowardly performances I've ever witnessed by a ball club. So afraid, so meek and pathetic.

Ur pissed off the Royals made the World Series?

I dont think baseball is the sport for you.

The best team wins 59% of the time. The worst one still wins like 40% of the time.

GG Bum + Giants. See you Tuesday at the K.

A team good enough to make it to the WS won a 3 game series at home. Shocking. We've bested this team at least 2 in a row twice this year. This is a winnable series.

I think it's all Kansas city teams, I wish I could stop doing this to myself but I'm ****ing insane and think things might change. The only team I root for that has or will win anything in my life is KU.

This.
It's the world series. The royals are in it. No matter what-win

You guys must root for Missouri

Really can't be pissed about a team that overachieved and lucked it's way into a world series.

I feel so sorry for those folks who packed P&L tonight. 0 runs from that scared team

I'm pissed about the double switch, but it didn't really matter.

Tip of the cap to the Giants.

Can't wait for Tueday night.

Now that is ****ing dumb.

This is sooooooooooooooooo KC.

Dude you need some perspective.

Your choice to be a moron.

2 sweeps and a come from behind win to even get into the playoffs isn't what I'd call lucking into anything. Do us a favor and stop rooting for the Royals now so we can keep the quitters to a minimum when Game 7 rolls around. I don't know anyone who expected a win tonight, I mean it was 2-0 going into the eighth against a dominate pitcher and a team who lit us up last night. If we would've won tonight that would've taken us some luck.

I hope one day you can find something in your life you can be happy about. Almost every post you make seems to be some depressing, downer take on sports, life, or something or other. This team had one of the best postseason runs in history to get to this point, and sure, every successful team gets some breaks here and there, but here you are to try and crap all over it. Well done. KC sports has had so many bad breaks the last 20 years, I don't think anyone's a moron for enjoying this or thinking it's something more than luck.

Yeah, I'm really pissed that a team that won the Wild Card has won 10 of 13 postseason games and is in the World Series for the first time in 29 years.

:rolleyes:

Is this forum a magnet for the ****ing dumbest people in the free world?

Hard to read some of these posts without cringing. Two games left to prove they're better than the Giants. And we know it's true, so stop sulking.

Not even mad. We still have a chance to win the World Series.


This is a great run indeed.


Giants and Royals fans are the only two teams that have this opportunity.


We have an opportunity still to win it all.

Absolutely

I don't see the Detroit Tigers or the Baltimore Orioles competing in the World Series.



This makes me happy.

Better than not having a choice, I guess.

Win 8 postseason games in a row with two sweeps--I don't see how a team lucks into that.

Well I'm here, so, yah, pretty much.

They don't. The Royals are ****ing legit.

DANE SIGHTING!!!!

People make it sound like we got no shot. Truth is Saturday we got out coached, yesterday we got out played. The beauty of it is we don't have to worry about Bum gardener no more and 2 games in our house.

Sunday was a respectable loss. Saturday I was sick about.

This is a troll post, right? I mean, no one can seriously be this ****ing stupid.

Putting things in perspective, this playoff run was absolutely nothing to feel bad about and was the best thing that happened in KC sports for decades.

They can still win the WS, too, though it won't be easy. But I'd rather play the last two games at home than on the road.

You don't luck your way to two sweeps of the best teams in the American League. Plain and simple. There is no argument there. "Luck" your way to 1-2 wins, maybe. But not all those games. Baseball is about being hot at the right time. We WERE the better team in both those series. You cannot argue that. PERIOD.

Bumgarner will probably pitch game 7 on short rest

I think there is a reason he came out for the 9th and ran his pitch count up to 117 - he's done starting for the year. He'd probably be available for relief in Game 7, but I HIGHLY doubt he starts that game

If he does start, I'll be happy to face a tired pitcher we made some decent contact with at the K.

8 out of the last 10 teams down 3-2 came back at home to win the title. And if you told me we had the chance to do that against two average pitchers I'd give you a hug and say thanks. We got this.

Most of you guys know baseball better than me. I just rediscovered the Royals in July but I have a question about our strategy vs playing the Ace pitchers.

Seems to me we could have rolled out Randy Johnson vs Bumgardner and still not had a chance of winning. Why not just throw those games and save your ace for another day? Shields pitched his ass off last night and yet we had no shot. Seems like a wast to me. No?

I don't think it's a strategy to intentionally throw in the towel. I get that Bumgarner is a machine, but he didn't lose 10 games on accident. He can be had, and you have to take your best shot to make that happen. Shields v Bumgarner is the right call.

To all of the over-reactors/quitters

The Taveras news pretty much killed my ability to get upset about anything Royals last night. I hope to have my vitriol back by game 6.

This is such ****ing bullshit

Good call man
