It was a long, quiet week after that '85 series. No joke, my dad didn't/couldn't speak to us for a week. He's still a Cards fan first, but he's down with the Royals, though I know he still hates that '85 KC team.

My dad's a lifelong Cards fan too, and so was I growing up (Royals being 1a, Cards 1b). So I thought it was great when they met in the 85 Series. But Cardinal fans at Mizzou were such insufferable dicks to us Royals fans that they pretty much destroyed my Cardinal fanhood.
