He pointed out that Moustakas is in the lead because it's the people in Kansas City that are giving him a gazillion votes, meanwhile, Donaldson is top 10 in the majors in RBIs, HRs, doubles, runs scored and in slugging percentage.

Fielding wise, Moustakas couldn't hold Donaldsons jock. Now is this deserving that Moustakas deserves to be ahead of Donaldson in voting when Donaldson outclasses him defensively and in a helluva lot of statistical categories.

Guys, you know this system is ****ing bullsh*t okay? Donaldson is the better player and deserves to be in there over Moustakas. You guys are voting him in there because he is your boy. This voting system on choosing all-stars is a reflection of extreme biases and favoritism. The people of Kansas City blew that out of proportion. It's just so unfair.

*Go ahead and flame away. I'm confident my point stands strong

Would you like some American cheese to go with your Ginger Ale (Canadian wine)?

The system is what it is. You don't like it? Get out and vote. Perhaps you wish your fan base was as passionate as the Royals? I'm sorry that they aren't. Besides, Donaldson will be playing in the All-Star game. He'll just be coming out in the 3rd inning instead of the first. So who cares??

Oh, and one more thing . . . . . . . . .

**** off.

Your fan base is passionate because of the seasons you've had in the past what 2,3 years?

We're you guys there when you were at the basement of the league for like 10 years?

Would you guys have voted for your shitty players back then over the rest of the good all stars? Probably not.

But because now you are a winning team all the KC Royals players are better than the rest of the all stars around the league. Meanwhile, KC fans don't know jack sh*t about the rest of the league or the players. It's the same thing here with the Chiefs. Many of you put your attention on Chiefs players and lose out on focusing on the rest of the league and the other players around the league and as a result overrate Chiefs players tremendously. Your love and passion for your teams are very passionate which I give you credit for but they result in your judgements being biased, and severely clouded that they neglect love for the rest of the players around the league.

*Why not have the KC Royals against the rest of the all stars? Id enjoy it to see you guys get smashed.

I'm too tired to research.

I do feel that they've been more successful than the Royals not just in the last 10 years but throughout history.

Both teams have losing records over their collective histories. So I guess you could argue the Blue Jays have a slightly better winning % but that's kinda like fighting to be the smartest kid in the F students section.

The answer is 1993. I thought you were a fan? Stop acting like you're better than the royals. They're very similar franchises.

Hamas has a great point. We might just be ****ing ourselves out of home field in the WS.

But how delicious it would be if they fielded 8 Royals and won.

It's awesome that the MLB lets only Royals fans vote for the ASG.

I know, right?

It really is a shame that MLB doesn't give the other fan bases an opportunity to vote 35x to offset the small market Royals voting fanbase.

I feel bad for them.

King_Chief_Fan · 06-14-2015, 06:08 PM

What...fans paying their hard earned money to watch over paid players shouldn't decide who they want to see play?

It's just that nobody gives a ****. Write your senator or something. It's a shame this got all up in your feels. Or maybe it's just funny.
