Does anyone else have a Royals hangover now?
I have that feeling that you get as a kid on the day after Christmas. I looked forward to watching the games every night. The win was incredible. But now I'm just kind of in a sports "no man's land". The Chiefs already blew it, the Mavs are not going to be good, and I don't like hockey. Daylight savings time just ended so I get to go to work in the dark and come home in the dark.
Sigh. |

I keep asking myself "what now?" It's kind of like when you finally bang that hot chick you've been going after for the last decade (not me personally since I'm pussy drought). I always told myself that a Royals World Series would be the peak of my sports fandom. Now that it's actually happened, I just want it again and again. Even still, if this is the only World Series victory I ever see from KC in my lifetime, it will be totally worth it.

Loochy,
Great way to summarize that feeling. I'm elated we are the world champions. But, it's weird. After all those years of wishing baseball season would end already, the past few I wish there were more games. It's like the Royals were a part of my family this summer, and now that family member has gone on a vacation until March. I love all football so I'm good with sports but this was such an incredible ride, there is a bit of a void now that it is over. That being said, I'm gonna enjoy this and hope to have the same feeling this time next year! |

Football has become boring now.

The irony of moving away from KC the same year one of the teams wins a world championship was too much for me, so I went all in for October. I flew back for 6 postseason games, including the 2 WS games. Each time back was filled to the max with family, friends, and old haunts. It obviously paid off as it was without question the best month of my life. However, I'm oddly content, relieved, and excited to get back to relative sobriety, clean eating, repairing my bank account, and not thinking too much about sports in general.

ESPECIALLY with the way the Royals did it. They brought nail biting excitement almost every game. The sad thing is the Chiefs are as unclutch as the Royals are clutch.

The Chiefs and Royals are polar opposites in crunch time when their backs are against the wall. For the Royals someone always steps up make a play. For the Chiefs someone always steps up to choke the game away. |

I'm still physically hungover from the alcohol Sunday night. I think I slept 13 hours yesterday....

If you're into college basketball, I think that's starting to gear up.

I don't live anywhere near KC so that's not an option for me.
