Tim is coming back for 2010. Wonderful.

I don't know if I'm in the minority here, but Tim Scott has the ability to annoy and amuse me
And I found that all really annoying except for Callaspo and then the Greased Lightning finish.

And how about the...
…lame Max Hedrom reference? How many current Royals actually got that? – TL

Hah!
You’d think, based on the dancer girl demographics, that the only fans of the Royals are white. …But seriously, how ridiculous overall. Not only are we bad at positional player development and signing, but we can’t even put on a quality promotional song-and-dance routine. – TL

I mean, provided that...
…this is for real? Did this whole thing really happen? I can’t imagine having to sit through it without smirking the whole time. – TL

Would this be considered some kind of process?

Good one.
But the beginning of what?! – TL

Every awards show MC is going to take criticism
I don’t give a [bleep] if you’re Billy [bleep]ing Crystal. You’re going to take criticism. I think the problem is in this town we’ve had terrible awards shows for so many [bleep]ing years in a row that people don’t have any patience. So as soon as he does something that the media doesn’t like, they explode on him. [bleep] you and [bleep] them. Believe me, Jack Harry, Kevin Kietzman, Roger Twibell, every sports guy in town, Dave Stewart, has never interviewed for an award show MC job. You know why? Because there’s 30 teams in Major League Baseball. Thirty! No one’s ever called these guys to sing and dance. No one’s ever called them to do comedy. Why? Because they don’t know what they’re talking about sometimes. They DON’T know what they’re talking about sometimes. And I’m sick and tired of listening to it. OK? I’m sick and tired of listening to it. There are a lot of people who respect him that understand the game of emceeing. A lot of people do. A LOT of people respect him for his emceeing abilities. And you know what? If our media doesn’t, that’s fine because it’s not going to affect him. It’s not going to affect him. End of story.

It's not close to the top Royals players.
It was great he got it in as the first comment.

I owe it all to George
He’s been comedy gold for me.

I don't know, I think it is cool that they can have fun with this
I wish they had a camera on Xaq during this, though.

the removal of tim scott and ryan lefebvre
seem as important to my enjoyment of this team as the removal of guillen and farnsworth. they break the cardinal broadcasting rule: “don’t be annoying.”
I thought this was awesome.
And as far as broadcasters and “don’t be annoying” I’ve yet to find an announcer, especially of sports, who didn’t annoy me in some capacity. Especially if you listen to/watch them a lot. But then I think that of most people in general. Perhaps this is why I always score “introvert” on those Meyers-Briggs thing-a-ma-jiggies?
Those Are Some
Nice, freshly scrubbed amd healthy mid-American girls, alright. Who is Tim Scott and why did he do that?
I used to be an A's fan until they left town and got good.
Maybe it's just my personality or taste...
But man this rubs me the wrong way.
Nothing like rubbing salt in the wound of another nuclear offseason than the association of the name Zack Greinke with the chorus of “Greased Lightning.”
And sweet Jesus. Not to go all “low-hanging-fruit” on everyone here, but the notion of a KC Royals awards banquet is just completely absurd, right? Like almost ironic, right? Or is this the culture of winning that Dayton was talking about building?

Love the ending.

I don't know what kind of rinky-dink operation they're running there
But I saw neither orange slices nor RC or Shasta Cola for those poor boys. Those parents should be ashamed of themselves.

that made me chuckle
