Just another day at The K

The Big Donkey had another two hits yesterday. Ho hum.

Alex Gordon is a high-maintenance super model. Billy Butler is a baseball slut.

Big Donkeys' brother was at the game. We listened on the radio. Said brother called several times from The K but he was drunk and we couldn't understand him. Something about Gathright being fast and the scoreboard being BIG.

Is it just us, or is that monstrosity of a scoreboard going to distract fans -- and players -- from the game? Maybe it will distract opposing players so much that the Royals will have an added home field advantage.

Nunez + Soria = Let's Groove.

Lot's of people wondered why the Royals signed Mahay when they already had Gobble. And Bale and Musser. The reasons are as follows: Mauer, Morneau, Thome, Cust, Matsui, Posada, Giambi, etc. Not every team is as right-handed as the Tigers.

Bob Davis should stick to the Jayhawks. Is he good at basketball? Football? Or is he just a familiar voice for KU fans to listen to while they're wallowing in their super-inflated senses of self-importance? Do KU fans also think Davis is good at doing Royals baseball? Just curious.

We'll pay every reader of this blog $1 if AROD doesn't hit a dinger off of Greinke today or Bale tomorrow. Having said that, we think Greinke's going to pitch a nice game.

Big Donkeys knows baseball. And THIS is a good TEAM, people.

So kick back, put the steal sign on, and enjoy some wins.

The sign is awesome! I'm glad that Bob Davis gave you some sense of the scale. Opening day was awesome (note to Deadbirds fans - Royals fans could care less about the Cardinals - it's the Yankees who bring out the real antilove). I saw a little of the game, but mostly I watched the giant TV and worried about when they were going to put the crown back on the sign. Maybe I could buy some of the crown on Ebay? It'll look good in my front yard next to the UMR signs that I'm trying to win on Ebay.

We can't get the Royals on TV in Rolla, but I did see Ryan on TV when we were in STL for the marathon last weekend. He looked strange without his Hawaiian shirt. He and Denny had some good chemistry, but what does "good" matter when you are riding the Walmart express?

I also saw Ryan in a suit and tie last weekend. Very strange. I go to Springfield every weekend, so I'm hooked up with all of the weekend TV games on dish/satellite.
