Frank probably would have understood if they would have told him that he lacked in delivery, although he got much better as time went on. But making up a bullshit "too negative" reason is just nonsense. Told him he didn't measure up, he probably would have shook their hands and told them thanks for the chance.

I'm not sure how I feel about this and I haven't posted in here just so I wouldn't be too reactionary. Frank is my all time favorite athelete and I don't really have "heros" but he's as close as there would be.

I hate that I won't hear him on broadcasts anymore but I get to watch so few Royals broadcasts it won't really affect me. Knowing he's not there sucks more than the actually not hearing him. As pointed out elevently million times, Frank is as classy and likable a guy as you'll ever find... and of course he's a Royals and Kansas City icon... so from those angles I find it bothersome. As a few have also pointed out, he isn't the most polished broadcaster you'll find... but there are plenty of popular broadcasters who aren't. What Frank means to the Royals imo is worth more than his prowess as a broadcaster. It's not like he's bad... in fact he can be quite good. Very insightful and informative in ways a guy who's never played the game at that level could ever be. But if they wanted a more polished guy I can understand that. I think the biggest problem was how it was handled which makes them look like a bunch of bitches.

I'm not proud of the organization on this but I'm still looking forward to a season of growth and becoming a competeitive team again. One guy... no matter how popular... does not a team or organization make. Even if he is/was my personal favorite.

It's too bad it had to end this way. Frank deserves better and I hope that he'll remain with the team in some capacity, but if he doesn't I understand. As always I'll wish him the best and he'll always be my favorite player. The Royals will also always be my favorite team.

Here's to hoping both Frank and the Royals go on to bigger and better things.

Here's a pretty good evaluation of the situation. In a nutshell, they say its a small group of golf shirt wearing, privileged middle aged men having a pissing contest. Maybe. But crap like this shouldn't happen. At least the Royals ineptness didn't drive Frank to eat a shotgun blast, like the Orioles did to Mike Flanagan.

That's about it... I think it has everything to do with Frank being passed over for the manager job. He's a competitive guy, I imagine his relationship with this front office was ruined when that happened.

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...
