Take a moment to consider where the Royals HAVE been

by RoyalsFanInMarinerTown on Mar 29, 2008 3:18 PM EDT

Let's take a moment to reflect on our Boys in Blue over the past 15 years or so, by exploring some wonderful Onion articles.

Who can forget this timeless classic, which shows the original movement to return to fundamentals from the Buddy Bell era.

Remember the compassion of this story? We can all cry together knowing the lift our boys must have recieved from this event.

Finally, we see the impact of the signings of psuedo-big name free agents such as Guillen and Meche.

Truly, I am EXCITED about Royals baseball this year, and I hope this trip down nightmare lane reminds you HOW FAR WE HAVE COME! Long live Dayton Moore.

Well said

I appreciate you taking the long view and looking at things with some perspective. This team is much better than the Royals have been in years, including the fluky/lucky 2003 team.

I probably disagree with you.

for a good 1 minute reading the emanski deal the first time I ever saw it. Now really - try laughing for a minute (watch this if you need help trying .... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DXf5Ym3Jsd0) , and you'll know how much the wit and satire of the onion can be appreciated.
