If the season ended today, I would make so much money writing a book 20 years from now about why the 2014 season ended so early

When someone posted the Bob Sutton thread the other day, my first thought was why are we talking about that guy we have Andy now.

Butler saw me with my daughter and threw me a ball then signed it. I got two other balls. My four month old daughter was good bait lol. He saw that my wife is a D-backs fan and said to her "You're wearing the wrong gear ma'am." My daughter and I were decked out in our Royals attire of course. I made her do the sweeping motion walking out of the ballpark. She's too cute for people to get mad at me lol.

Shout out to our fans that screamed "home of the CHIEFS!" at the national anthem, that was sweet! And it was awesome hearing the "let's go Royals!" chant in the middle of the 9th inning. D-backs fans didn't like that but it was throughout the ballpark. It was Royals-West. Way to represent guys! GO ROYALS!!
