I think half the problem is half this team buys into the marketing hype. Hosmer, Moose and French actually believe that not only are they "big leaguers" but that are great ones at that.

they rebuilt so well

they gave big contracts to Swisher and Bourn and signed Aviles, Giambi, Mark Reynolds, Stubbs, Aviles and Brantley

what a great rebuild

I doubt that. Its obvious watching them. Moose and hos have no confidence

that's right

they signed Mike Aviles twice

And we continue to look up to them in the standings

Probably not now when they realized they have to produce and hype alone won't get them shit.

again

I'm not even debating our incompetence.

I'm just trying to grasp how the Indians have done such a good job rebuilding teams year after year after year.

Compared to us? They have several times but I agree..in total they haven't done much

Are you even following the conversation, Doofus? We're talking about a fellow small market club in our division who continually out-does us and who is able to put out damn competitive teams on a semi-regular basis. Some of which crack 90 wins.



Bashing them only makes you look dumber than you already are.

again

I'm not bashing Cleveland. I'm not saying we're better than Cleveland.

I'm bashing a poster who typed out the following sentence:

"Cleveland doesn't tolerate losing."

ROFL

Prison Douche is on his way to douche of the year award for 2013. Cleveland the one city in the country more snake bit than Kansas City when it comes to sports.

As htismaqe's old sig would say: better than bad ≠ good

I miss that guy

We should set expectations for what accomplishments should be. If it's win the World Series than 2/3 of the teams in the league won't ever accomplish much. I don't really expect the Royals to win the WS or even get there really but I do expect a winning record ever few years. I mean long term your average should be 81-81 but we haven't done that in 18 of the last 19 years.


So it's rather funny watching Royals fans try and tear down fellow small markets who actually do try. Who do put out good products on a semi-regular basis. No actually it's embarrassing.

it's almost as embarrassing as someone who would type something like "they don't tolerate losing in Cleveland."

wait

no, not even close to as embarrassing
