So Frank was fired because he spoke the truth about one of the worst franchises in sports? Lawlz **** this team hope they suck for another 25 years.

Didn't the Roayls permaban a couple of reporters for asking David Glass tough questions when Dayton Moore was introduced as GM?

Yeah I forget who but I want to say that cow Rhonda Moss and someone from 810? I could be wrong.

Yes on Mosszilla, and it may have been Fescoe when he was still working for 810.

Whatever, the Royals have been pathetic under Glass. Can't wait to host the All-Star Game when we're sitting 15+ out at the break. That will be the karmic kick to the nuts we have on the way for firing Frank.

Wonder what happened to her?

Anyway i'm a little surprised theres not more of an outrage about this. Frank is good people.

That sucks, I thought he did a good job when I got to see him.

It was Moss and Fescoe, and they were not being honestly critical of the team, they were being belligerent and disruptive at Moore's introductory press conference. It was high order douchebaggery. I'm sure you can find it online.

Fescoe is a douche of Mt. Rushmore proportions.

On the Frank White thing: The announcers are hired by Fox Sports Midwest and approved by the Royals. It could be that Fox and Frank couldn't come to a new contract agreement, maybe they want somebody who is a little more polished as a broadcaster, or whatever. I think he did an OK job. He's certainly as good as Jeff Montgomery, who they have on sometimes. The guy they need to can is Joel Goldberg. Remember the Guy Fieri fiasco?

Royals should put Frank White to work in the front office. He's a smart baseball guy. He went to the Red Sox for awhile, then came home.

If it is true that he was fired, he probably thanked them. I don't think he enjoyed all the travel and listening to Ryan act like a friggin idiot during the dog days

Really dumb move. Loved Frank White's commentary, and he's one of the top 4 or 5 icons in all of KC sports. Horrible decision.

wazu 12-02-2011 03:15 PM

It's especially horrible when you consider how much the Royals try to parade "tradition" and tug at people's nostalgia with memories from 1985.

Demonpenz 12-02-2011 03:44 PM

I think this is probably good for Frank. He doesn't need to watch this team, hopefully he gets paid somewhere along the line and some team takes care of him. I don't know how he stayed so fresh, other than the dude seems to take care of his health. After the long ass ballgames he put in I am surprised he just didn't say something worse. I love him describing second base ball. He was a true master at that position. An artist, master, magic man over there.

HAHA! I watched the whole thing through and actually thought it was a disaster because of what a horrible, embarrassing, lame interview it was. Then I read the youtube description and realized he's a fake. Awesome!

Demonpenz 12-02-2011 04:10 PM

Thankfully I was following Guy on twitter at the time. and he cleared it up. That was a classic royals moment
