Very interesting... But. no matter what, I think the Royals TOTALLY F'd this up... I'm not sure folks "in" KC don't like George, but we all know he's more on the snob side than an approachable guy. I don't care, I'm not sure I care that much. And obviously, ring or not, he's not been the mojo to fix the team. Come to think of it, other people with even less notoriety that Frank have done more to fix the team lately than George.
I just don't think the Royals were planning on quite this much backlash over it. Another fail on their part... As a fan, while I'll admit I saw a lot more potential this coming year than I've seen in the past, they still aren't at the point where they can fire fan-favorite icons because they think they're smart. They're not...
I wish Frank the best, and I hope he stays around KC, and speaks to us about Royals baseball. Now more than ever we'll know we're getting the straight scoop...
