I feel bad, but Jesus Christ, this team was just amazing this year. I just feel good about what they achieved. Major ups to this entire Franchise.

Even though they lost, thank you Royals for a magical season. For the first time in my life, I watched a meaningful baseball in October. They came back from 7-3 in the Wildcard. They swept the best team in the baseball in the ALDS. They swept the team with the most homers in baseball in the ALCS. They took a dynasty to 7 games in the World Series and kept it close against one of the greatest pitching performances in World Series history. Thanks again 2014 Kansas City Royals for a truly magical season.

You had a season as good as anyone could have reasonably hoped for. Better, actually. One of the greatest streaks in playoff history, too. Bumgarner was just a machine and the Giants so rarely make fundamental mistakes (Blanco and Perez's massive misplays being the glaring exception). They are a very, very tough team to beat.
Sorry that it didn't work out for you all, but you have nothing to hang your head about. Be proud of what the team accomplished and get ready to retool for next year. |

Sucks, but a great run. These kids did all of this with no experience.
We no longer have hope for the future, we have expectations. Cheers Royals. |

The Royals need to approach this off-season by looking towards getting another starter. Doesn't even need to be ace caliber with Ventura. Just need another guy with the ability to keep the Royals in the game. Also need a corner outfielder. Get those two things, keep our bullpen in tact, and I like our chances next year. |

You may not have won the WS, but you did get what you've been asking for for a LONG time. Baseball is back in KC. |

Best baseball I've watched.
IMO after the As we were playing with house money and we cleaned up. Almost won big. Great fun this October baseball. Proud the Royals. Proud of the fans for representing. Awesome stuff. I'm not even too down about losing. We got buzz sawed by. Guy pitching outside his ****ing mind. Even with Pence and Sandoval owning us we win if bumgarner is even remotely human. |

Best baseball I've ever seen.
But this still hurts quite a bit to be that close. Man. Gonna be tough to just let it go. |
