Time to plan the Plaza Parade! No, really...




Now that our World Series triumph is an inevitability, it's time to turn RR's favorite metaphor into a living, breathing reality. It's time to plan the plaza parade!

I've been involved in some active discussions on this subject elsewhere, and I'll offer some suggestions from that forum here in order to jump-start the conversation. Parade elements should, nay, MUST include the following:


-Up front, the Marching Cobras, led out by a back-flipping Jerrod Dyson

-Billy Butler on the back of a beer truck, hosing down the crowd with BBQ sauce

-An ambulance containing Eric "Ewing Theory" Hosmer

-A hearse containing Raul Ibanez (No, that's not a threat, people. He's old, you see. Old. Very, very old.)

-Ned Yost, forcing Jeremy Guthrie and James Shields to keep walking the route until their legs physically fall off of their body.

-Above, the clouds part, and SungWoo Lee, having been bodily elevated into heaven following the Royals' triumph in game five of the World Series*, smiles down beatifically.

-Bringing up the rear: Herrera, Davis, and Holland, in that order.

-Not present: Rex Hudler, who has gotten lost somewhere in Excelsior Springs.


Seems like a good start, but I can't help but think I'm leaving out some key elements. What have I missed?





* Yes, I think we get taken to five games. I've always been something of a pessimist.
