Q

Was he too honest about the team, or something? I liked him in the booth.

Yes. See post 5713 http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showt...240326&page=72

Heh! Well, there you go. Thin-skinned front office.

The Royals have dumped on Frank White several times in his career. Don't know why. They'd never treat George Brett like this.

They really have. And he's a KC guy, to boot. One of my favorite players growing up, him, Brett, and Freddie Patek. The Royals can eat shit.

Frank is a friend (I sold him a home) and a Very nice and descent guy. He should been a Royals Manager years ago instead of the scrubs they have brought in. Royals have no class at all.

This! :clap:

The ironic thing about this is that George Brett is an asshole (seen it first hand and he has a bit of a reputation). And Frank White couldn't be a nicer guy. He's almost too genuine.

So the nice guy gets crapped on and the asshole is treated like KC royalty.

I don't think he was a good color guy. Likeable and all but he probably belongs in scouting or instruction.

Frank's not as polished as Splitt was, but he always called it like it was, and he wasn't afraid to be critical when it was called for. But TV is not a job for tree huggers, people get whacked all the time.

Frank was one of the good reasons to watch the Royals. You would learn intricacies of the game from him all the time. Besides just being a genuinly nice guy and my childhood hero, the man knew more about baseball than anyone else in that stadium. Including the players!

Frank introduced me to Pepsi Zero. I've never tried it, but through Frnk, I now know what Pepsi Zero is.

Embarrassing. It sounds like this is all Dayton Moore's doing.
