I've called it the Denkinger Curse for a while.

It's a self-induced curse called the Hunt-Glass curse...

What's more confounding is how one city could be so unlucky as to have THOSE TWO family own our major teams...

One has to wonder what might be different if they had to actually live in the city where their teams are.... By all means the homers for those two families will point out that A) there is no such rule and they will also B) try to indicate that it wouldn't matter.

Oh well, I'm sure with attitudes like that we'll keep getting more of the same...

Incredibly stupid by the Giants...he has been pitching better lately. I'll be shocked if he is not shelled on his next turn

Well, looks like MU fans and KU fans can start hating each other again.

You ****ing dickheads!!

I lived the Blessed Kaufman days, but have a much greater appreciation now. Baseball needs fiscal sanity. This would help some. Being invested in your city does matter. No way glASS feels the torment day to day. Dude doesn't care.

If there's one thing I do think glASS is trying to do that's right for the game it's to bring fiscal sense (equality...) to the sport. Granted, he's doing little more than letting one team fail badly and hoping, someday, the world cares, but 9 out of 10 lawyers will agree that in the legal sense of the word it is "something." It's stupid, it's ridiculous, and it won't work, but it's as much has his greedy ass is willing to do to fix a very broken system.

If there's one other thing he's "doing", I'd say that keeping inept people in key positions and allowing them (not putting any pressure on them until it's too late) to make obviously bad decisions to allow/ensure the team keep failing.

He sees himself as a visionary, a revolutionary thinker of sorts, a game changer......and won't ever change as long as that kind of coin keeps rolling into his account.

Bitching about Glass is a waste at this point...he will never sell the royals and we are stuck with him as fans. Thing is, if GMDM made the right decisions with the money that has been freed up and on the farm this wouldnt be an issue. fact is GMDM is the sole reason the Royals suck to this point. Glass hired the 'up and coming' star GM and opened his wallet a bit....it's time for GMDM to go and let someone else try this with the same amount of $$$ to spend.

If bitching about glASS is a waste, so too then is bitching about the Royals, GMDM, how GMDM spends money (which might be glASS's will), and any other coach or player in this organization.

glASS owns this train wreck, so if he's off limits so too should be his employees... And there's no way to be a local fan and not bitch, so it'll start with glASS and move through his ranks...

Kansas City Royals ‏@Royals 20m

#Royals reinstate RHP Wade Davis from the Paternity Leave List, designate RHP J.C. Gutierrez for assignment.

Royals Designate J.C. Gutierrez For Assignment on his 30th birthday. Quite the Royals thing to do. I imagine he'll get picked up though. His numbers this year haven't been bad.

Can't ****ing fire an owner though man? Glass is the WORST owner, trust me i know this...

This fanbase lives off of hope. Fact is that GMDM has done a crap job of making the best farm system in the majors into the A's of MLB, thats what the Royals should be.
