At least we have the Chiefs to look forward to in about 10 minutes.


Amiright?

It's so amazing that these guys can find new ways to screw up. There's always next year, right?

Meh. It doesn't matter anymore. Realistically we aren't catching them.

Sir, you're first.

Up against the wall please, spread your cheeks.

Welp.

GMDM needed to leave Crow in AA.

BOHICA

Thanks Royals for breaking our hearts again.

....and leave Ned in Detroit.

Ned should be fired right now

Guess I'll go Chiefs with the sound.

Honestly, I am looking forward to watching a game that I am not nervous about nor am I expecting much out of.

You call that looking forward to something? I call that a sad existence....and always my life.

These pussies are just choking it all away.

Yeah, I'm the only one that's felt this way during the course of this turd of a streak . . . .

I never said it was over. Division, not likely. Wildcard, still an option.

If you feel it's over, probably no more need to watch.

Find a good lifetime movie to watch, be less vag than these two teams

Lane v Poose again. Write down the K

I'm so pissed. But not surprised. Is it KU basketball season yet? JFC.

Just found it ironic that you were commenting on my rant after the statement you made the other day that you were glad they were rolling over and quitting.

One might infer by your comment that you were writing them off too?


But whatever. Guess it doesn't matter really.

Well yea, they were quitting in that game. You said the season was done. And hell, if it is, I'll watch the ship sink all the way to the bottom.

Lighten up Nancy, it's a message board.

GD it... This is painful.

yea not much fun today.

We losing a triple header today.
Royals loss
Chiefs loss
Tigers win

Not a good day.

Cleveland scores 1, Tigers up 6-4 , runner on 2nd & no outs.

Hopefully they ask about using Crow and Aoki in the pressed and then ask if he was aware of the splits.

There goes another opportunity

Damn,Tigers win.

Bases loaded.

Amazing. We are basically forefieting(sp?) with this move

Oops. Wrong thread. Chiefs just gave up, in case you were wondering

And strikeout looking.

that sums up that series.

SWING...THE...****ING...BAT....

It was a foot outside

That ball was a foot outside.

Horrible, horrible call on that last strike!

Lorenzo Cain is a piece of shit.. way to look at strike 3.

****ing asshole Ned.

It's over folks

Well......fun season guys

Ned's justification for Crow is just ...

Glad I'm drinking right now.

Season on the line, and you're still so hidebound you save Herrera for the 7th when the game was in the balance with two outs in the 6th.

Fireable offense.

September. Two weeks to go. He's managing like it's May.

The quote about Herrera?

HO-LY SHIT.

@KSeaboldt: These Yost quotes from postgame almost sound made up. Like I’m reading The Onion...

Yikes. Those quotes are bad.

Ned knows he can go YOLO because this gutless franchise won't hold him accountable.

Somebody please come in here and defend Ned. Alnorth? Tk13? Anybody who's intelligent and level-headed (and sober)?

Hasn't Al North been a defender of Ned?

Here's even more damning evidence.

Will Ned get fired again with 10 games left?

I can't anymore. It's September. You pitch guys who can get people out when guys are on base.

No reason to put Crow in that spot.

**** NED.

Not even a 1% chance that happens.

In between trying to get my internet up and running, I got to see the Crow MOON shot, and absolutely couldn't believe Yost would leave him in. Been working on my piece of shit router since. :facepalm:

How about now? With 14 games left.

I complexity despise this mentality of "this guy is strictly a 7th inning guy" , or "8th inning guy" etc......

Every game situation is different. To be completely static like that is incompetent.

That's fine early in the season whey you want guys to know their roll. Once you have seen them all season, you decide based on the magnitude of the situation who you'd put in. Crow does not come in with guys on base in scoring position since we have seen him all year.

The difference between a dummy and being reeruned ?


Dummies can learn......

Don't look at me. The only person I argued against extending is Holland because he had arm fatigue earlier this year... and especially now he's battling injury. Davis and especially Herrera is fair game, especially at this point in the season.

Thank you.

You should start a thread ....

I want to murder this mother ****er. Again, this is exactly why he was fired in MIL. What's a ****ING DUMBASS!!!!

Again, he's managing like he is in teaching mode! You ****ing dipshit, this is a Pennant Race. Gawd, ****ing shoot me already. I can't take watching this stupid ****er manage this team any longer. And, you know gawdamn well will he be extended "for doing so well this year". FML

Did anyone even ask Yost why he didn't bring in a lefty to pitch to Neva?

Why must KC be forever cursed with terrible coaches? (!@#*$1o01UQWE9E

Worst. Sports day. Ever.

Said they would have brought in Napoli.

Yes, god forbid that we make a move that makes the other team make a move. That would be just silly. Ned is a ****ing tard!

On his defense he got stung by Boston in July when he brought in Downs and they countered with Gomes who won the game. That said you cannot ever bring in The Crow. That is outrageous

:facepalm:

Bill James has repeatedly said the biggest mistakes in MLB are (1) not platooning enough and (2) not bringing your best relievers in at the most critical times. As far as I'm concerned, I'd have considered Greg freaking Holland at that point with the bases loaded 1 out. Why not? He's your best, win or lose with him. Or Davis. Or Herrera. Whoever.


We've platooned a lot this year (hasn't worked) which is good, but the high lev situations should NEVER involve feces like Crow or Downs or Bueno.

He has changed Aoki's roll from a poor defensive RF guy who doesn't hit well into a DH. Why can't he change Crows role?
