Northwest is on, what? It's third string quarterback? What a program.

KC, overall, has poor management when it comes to sports. If you listened to 810 this morning, apparently, the Wizards are going to get rid of Tony Meola. Not that I'm a huge soccer fan but, he wants to be here and he's a recognizable person in the community. The Royals are doing the same thing with Joe Randa. Meola isn't the problem with the Wizards just as Randa isn't the problem with the Royals. However, nobody seems to recognize that. Couple all this with the Chiefs free-fall and it's not a good time to be a KC sports fan. |

Also I do agree with you that they need to keep both. But I have a feeling you don't have a grasp on why they are letting them go.

Well, to be honest, I don't know anything about soccer. All I know is that the only guy on the team I can name is Tony Meola.
As far as Randa is concerned, I know they don't want to pay his $3.3 mil option. So, they're cutting costs (which is no surprise). But, Randa has taken less each year just to stay in KC. That, to me, says a lot. Plus, they're getting rid of Mizerak which leads me to believe that there's gonna be a complete overhaul at 3rd base. They're going with that guy who played well in the Fall League but, there's also a butt-load of good free agent 3rd basemen this year. I'm just irritated at the state of professional sports, most notably baseball. I went to the Joe Randa Chairity Tennis Tournament and saw many of the things he does for this city. I just think it's a shame they have to get rid of the one person who really wants to be here. |

Keeping Randa around is a waste of $. I know he's a great guy, but you don't build contenders by keeping guys around just because they're nice. (ie 2004 Chiefs) |

Regardless, I know KC can't afford any of the 3BM on the market. But, is Joe Randa a good baseball player? Yes. He's worth one more year, and he would take less money to stay one more year. Since Teahen isn't going to step in and play right away, why not keep Randa another year? I know that KC already signed some minor league journeyman to a one year deal to replace Randa. I suppose Randa wouldn't take whatever dude did, so I suppose it had to be done. And by the way, what's with your "Internet Message Board" superiority complex I see oozing through my monitor? |
