Royals fans just can't pass on a good ad hominem when their bullshit arguments fall apart.
Keep on telling yourselves that your choir boys are just innocent bystanders. It isn't just Cardinals fans that aren't buying that nonsense.

Sports fans have double standards and will defend their team right or wrong???
Holy shit, I think you're really onto something here. |

Call it youth or swagger or whatever, but it can't be ignored. Royals fans call it an edge, most others....do not. And for Royals fans to have embraced that black hat role then turn around and tell someone like Donaldson who had legitimate reasons to be pissed to just nut it up and walk to first is absolutely hypocritical.

The Royals have been hit by pitches 57 times this season. That's second in MLB. Our pitchers have hit 29 batters. That's 23rd.
Toronto has been hit by 31 pitches. That's 14th in MLB. They've hit 44 hitters. That's 3rd in MLB. In the series four Royals and three Blue Jays were hit by pitches. Please keep these facts in mind as you invent reasons why the Royals are a bunch of thugs and whatnot. |

Ventura's caught a lot of shit, and deservedly so, from Royals fans over his behavior.

Yeah, that's definitely a card a team with a 2-4 record against the Cards should play...

You keep coming back to Ventura as your best example of the Royals being "red asses". I have seen very little defense of Ventura. Most Royals fans wanted him to be sent down to AAA. Sure there's some "he's a kid" talk, but even that is usually in the context of how he needs to grow up and figure it out. Ventura aside, this team started the year getting hit a LOT and were getting little support from the umps. They were smeared in the media for dust ups with the A's and the White Sox in which they were in no way the instigators. Of course they're a little indignant about teams throwing at them. I still haven't seen any Royal make as big an ass out of himself as Donaldson did on Sunday. |

I wish I could understand the intricacies of NL baseball - I really do. It seems so advanced. Alas, I am a Royals fan, so I can only hope one of the BFIB will help me out here. They're always so, so very helpful.

Cain has been in the middle of plenty of temper tantrums this year. And really, gonna just forget about Herrera's garbage in the 'make an ass of himself' derby? Or are you gonna justify that one as well? Probably the latter. Again - just brick after brick after brick. Any singular incident in a vacuum isn't much but the Royals are in the middle of more of them than any team in baseball.
