Long Suffering Royals Fans
For ten years I had a personal website georgeblowfish.com. I had a page on the Chiefs, and that's how the CP found me and invited me to come hang out here. I also blogged the Royals on a Daily Basis from around 1998 to 2009.

I closed my website and my online radio station (Radblow) because they were too much work with my job.

Today I was looking for a picture of my old pal Gary when we were young at Royals Stadium. Haven't found that one, but I did find a picture of me with Dorsey the Right Field Beer man from 1985.



I have lots of pictures from my website as I blogged the Royals. Many of them documented the Royals soul crushing futility of those dark days. In fact, in 2007, I made a little video. It's posted below. Thank goodness we can exorcise those days for good! Enjoy how far we've come from then:

That's a picture of KC vs. Cleveland in September back in the early 1990s at the mistake by the lake (I think). Game was either a blowout, or many extra innnings. Can't remember which.

George, try living in Mid-MO with the Royals futility.

I get abused walking around in public wearing a Royals shirt. I routinely have strangers(Cardinal fans) drive by me who will stop & say "The Royals Suck!" I've been at gas stations filling up & strangers(Cardinal fans) who will go out of their way to tell me how embarrassed I must be to be wearing that pos shirt. How bad a fan I am & must not know anything about baseball & how the Royals are a minor league team. They then will proceed to expound on the virtues of being the greatest fan on earth & how St Louis is superior in every way to KC. People often times ask me why I don't root for the Cards...I say that's an easy question: The pos fans. I respect the organization the Cards have but will never root for them due to the douchebags who root for them. ****'em!

Now that I got that out of the way.

I've been hard on this team. My girlfriend(who watches every game with me) routinely asks me if I love or hate them? I tell her it's a fine line baby. I realize how the last 29 years have changed me. Prior to 1985 the Royals could do no wrong & I supported them without question. The last 29 years have made me a bitter old man.

Thanks Royals!

We always called him "Dorsey." But we were hammered most of the time, so...
We probably put his kids through school. Spent lots and lots and lots of money on beer in RFGA.

I lived in Columbia from 1977 to 1986, so I know what you're sayin. Most Cardinal fans are good fans, but some are douche nozzles right up there with the worst Yankee fans.

I did some Googling on Joe Hess. He was with the Dept. of Agriculture (as an inspector agent) not USPS. I knew he was retired govt. Story about him is here:

That was my experience at Mizzou during the 85 Series -- and that was when the Royals were always good! Couldn't agree more with you.
