Still had my window open:
I need to vent and I need a dedicated thread for this so **** it I'm starting a new one. What the **** is with this ****ing Royals team?
Last year during the World Series I rooted passionately against them. Couldn't stand them then. I'm certainly not a Giants fan but was so relieved they pulled out the WS win so this piece of shit luck team didn't win. Despite having the derpest manager of all managers they somehow managed to get to the WS last year and it frustrated the **** outta me, one bunt at a time.
Now this? All over again but even worse this year? Yep.
-Down 6-2 late in ALDS elimination game to the Astros, and Correa botches a routine grounder that opens the floodgates to their comeback?
-Batting a guy with a .612 OPS as your leadoff hitter, while putting Alex Gordon in the 8 hole, AND IT KEEPS WORKING OUT FOR YOU? Since when is Alcides Escobar suddenly the best leadoff hitter in baseball? How the **** does this even happen? Escobar had an OPS more than 50 points less than Ryan Goins this year for ****'s sake. Can you imagine if Ryan Goins was batting leadoff for us and hitting .500 and winning playoff MVP awards?
-Last nights 4 base error...I mean, in the park home run. More on that later.
Call it sour grapes, call it whatever. I ****ing hated this Royals team last year. I ****ing hate them more this year. Its as if the baseball gods are just pissing in all of our faces. Opponents hard hit balls are always right at them, yet everything they hit somehow finds a hole. Are you ****ing kidding me with that in the park home run last night? I mean, are you ****ing kidding me? Cespedes played it like a bag of toys, and then it goes off his knee and rolls 50 feet away? That set the tone for the entire World Series of course.
Luck on top of luck on top of luck on top of luck on top of ****ing luck. And to top if all off, they also have the biggest assholes in baseball on the team. The series against us where they threw at Donaldson repeatedly for no reason. The series against the A's where they threw at Lawrie and 120 pound Ventura chirped whenever a grounder was hit back to him. Volquez, Ventura and Cueto. 3 smashable faces. Hell make it 4, add Hosmer to the mix.
I'm sorry, but I can't get over our loss yet. I keep replaying that 9th inning over in my head and I can't believe we let this Royals team through again. We didn't even need to play great to beat them. We played poorly and still almost did. The Jays that we watched in the 2nd half didn't even show up in the playoffs and yet they still almost made the World Series. Pissing in my face.
And just a heads up to Rays/Royals superfan BTS when you decide to respond: I've got you on ignore.
