Did you ever think you'd get emotional over a baseball team?
Isn't it funny how many of us have downplayed or completely internalized the sum of our long-term, emotional investment in Royals baseball. Then, when they garner positive national attention while knocking on the door of a championship, our hearts swell and we get misty eyed. Honestly, I'm a little detached from it all. I'm not in the Royals media kingdom and I don't have any local friends whom are fans. For the most part I've been able to keep it together. All I have is you sons a bitches!

Strangely enough, the closest I've come to breaking down is when I watched Cain get his MVP trophy. I had to go find the kleenex. I was happy for Lo. So proud...like a father

Usually all I do is cuss at these bums.

I was pretty thrilled, but I don't get that emotional over sports.

I didn't get emotional, unless "shock" is an emotion. At Game 3 I just stared at the crowd going crazy and waving towels, and couldn't process it all.

I don't think sports have the ability to make me cry or really reach the sort of euphoria that I'd associate with the truly important moments in my life; but I have found myself at a loss for words.

Which is rarely the case for me. My brain sort of goes blank and I have a general confusion; like it's a dream I'm going to wake up from shortly. Good sports things don't happen for KC teams. I guess like PB said, it's an inability to process what I'm watching in the moment. It's amazing anyhow. But I don't think I'll ever shed a tear over a sporting event. We'll see if that changes when they win the WS.

I'm trying hard to think of a more likeable KC athlete than Cain. I think he's a lot like Derrick Johnson (of whom Kietzman said "Nicest athlete I've ever met"). Who are some other nice guys? Will Shields of course, Tony Rich, Sweeney, Randa. Trent Green. And one former QB of ours now playing for Minnesota whom friends of mine said "Most down to earth guy ever"

Of the Royals I've met here at Spring Training Cain....and close your ears PB...but Moose and Hoz are also the most approachable and respectful. Not necessarily in your criteria of likeable but just a note.

Butler was the biggest ass. Although not super assholes, he didn't say anything and never smiled. He acted like he was too busy for the 20 fans who were at the workout.

I'd be curious what others have noticed when coming across KC athletes?

The Chiefs have basically trained me to have the high highs without the low lows... so yeah, it's more like a dream; a mechanism that prevents me from really buying into a team.

And with the Royals, as a lifelong die hard fan for the past few months, I think I'll shake off a series loss pretty easily, even though I've been soaking in every minute.

The only team I've gotten overly invested in over the past several years is KU BB, but I try to keep the perspective that they're just college kids, so it's a bit different. The Chiefs would probably have to win the AFC before I even started to believe it was true, with the number of letdowns they've had over the years (hell, I shrugged of the Colts loss).

This is probably part of it for me as well I'd guess.

When Cain and Ned hugged on that stage after the game, someone started cutting some onions a couple rows back from me. I thought that was a little out of place.

Same dude was at my house when Ned and Dayton were choked up talking to the crowd. This team is tuned in to how emotionally connected sports are in KC. It's awesome to see

I'm excited. Not like 85 excited and if it were the Chiefs in a Super Bowl I'd be in the ****ing stratosphere.

Only a puss cries over sports.
