Full transparency the only thing that might get me to attend a Royals home game is a downtown stadium, so maybe this is a brilliant tactic on Sherman's part

What if they brought back dollar beers and hotdogs in GA again? Would that get you out to the park?

Our brand of putrid, absolutely pathetic baseball is what distinguishes us from other Midwest cities. Without a .210 ball club we're just another Omaha or Wichita.

I'd say that Oakland deserves to lose it's team but it ain't as though John Fisher deserves to keep it either.

Frankly, the owner and the city deserve each other...

Looking at Omaha, if they need another starter before Lynch is ready, I think Austin Cox is the only real option at the moment.

Alec Marsh would probably be next in line if they believe they’ve solved his command issues.

Might be too tired, which explains their lackadaisical play

Cox has a pretty good curveball but not a lot else. There are a lot of areas where you could question/critique Dayton Moore's pitching scouting and development pipeline, but one of the bigger ones was an obsession with the curveball.

There's obviously still a bunch of time left but woof this looks like the same old shit except worse

That said any of you PHX gluttons want to see how cheap we can get suite tix for the 4/26 afternoon game next week?

Originally Posted by lewdog (Post 16911530)

I bet it’s still not cheap. Dbacks are 11-9 right now!

Or will the Royals pay me to attend?!

I was pretty sure. After talking to someone who had seen the police report, and spoken to one of the detectives, and seen the pictures submitted.

In DV cases, instances of the accuser completely fabricating everything are very rare. That sure looks like one of them, in hindsight. Like I said, it forced me to reevaluate my reaction in situations like that, letting more time pass and information come out.

That's a lot of words to say "My reaction was based on talking to people who had seen the documentation on the legal side of things, but that was wrong because Crystal lied, which made me wrong, and made me reevaluate and change my reaction in cases like that."

My issues with the Matheny staff were always far more broad than the religiosity of the staff. That was a secondary component to the tactical issues, the issues developing young players effectively, and the inability to keep the clubhouse healthy and loose.

I don't think I was anywhere close to the primary complainer about the religious component. But remember it however you want.

Re: the stories in St. Louis and Matheny's Bible study, that's an urban legend that happens to be supported by a friend of mine who covers baseball for a national publication and who witnessed it first-hand in the clubhouse.

I don't expect this to change your opinion of me (honestly don't care), and honestly I don't expect you to even read the whole thing. If you want to hate me forever or whatever, you do you, man.

I won't be responding about this again. Back to baseball talk in the thread, for me at least.

I have 3 sources who said they saw you raping 3 cows behind a Casey’s in Higginsville. Sources!

Yeah, man.

Thankfully all the rumors about Mike Matheny being terrible at managing a locker room proved unequivocally false by the way none of the players wanted him back at the end of last year.

BULLSHIT! Back that up with posts from every player last year stating this or admit the BS.

hey, bud. If I take the trouble to do this (and it's out there, my friend). Will you own this or will you cry "FAKE NEWS" or something like "tHiS iS jUsT mOsT pLaYeRs nOt ALL"

I think I know which direction you'll go -- but hey, lemme know.

Cool. Can you work on giving me an example of the players who gave proud defenses of Mr. McDreamy Matheny and begged for him to come back and I'll work on the many examples of players wanting a change. Deal?
