Now if you are counting at home this is the 3rd time I have "Officially given up on the royals this season" but those first two were clearly fake give ups. I have a tendency to fake give up on a lot of things. Royals, Chiefs, the girl in college who I hooked up with once because I was really drunk and she was kind of ugly but did some cool things in the bedroom, and junk food. But this give up is FOR REAL. There is no pulling me back in this time Royals. I am done. We are sitting at 22-23, in 4th place, and blowing 5-0 leads in the 1st. I think it is time for us all to come to the realization that this team isn't making the post season this year and probably never will again. You'll probably say "Dude PC never make the playoffs again ever? That's a bit ridiculous bro. I mean they have to make it sometime." Do they? Do they? DO THEY? Because the last time I checked I have been on this planet for 23 years and never seen a little KC in the scorebox that reads ALDS. And Honestly are we any better off than we were 8 years ago when we hired Dayton Moore? Yeah we are not losing 100 games automatically every season, but shit this team still hasn't ever threatened to make the post season. They keep telling us to wait and wait and these guys will come around, but i've been waiting and I ain't seen shit. This team is still a fucking joke.
You might ask yourself why I decided today would be the day that I officially gave up on the Royals as they have been hovering around .500 all season. Well yesterday I happened to be driving to lunch when I heard a little quote from our faithful manager Ned Yost. He was asked about how he thought we could compete for the playoffs when were a then 5-14 against the central (now 5-15). Over the years Ned has giving hundreds of answers that I found extremely idiotic and ill-advised, but yesterday Edgar flat out infuriated me. Yost said something along the lines of "Well yeah but you have to realize that most of those loses are to the Tigers." (0-5 vs the Tigs) WHAT?! What the fuck are you talking about Ned? OH the Tigers are sooooo good how in the world could us Royals compete with that? They have Miggy and Verlander. Its just too much for the Royals.
All this time Ned and the front office have been talking about contending for a central championship. You know what you have to do to win the central championship? You have to beat everyone in the fucking central. That includes the fucking Tigers Ned. "Most of those are against the Tigs" (snarky Edgar voice) Give me a fucking break. I'm done with this team forever.
