Quiet, you.

[Valmy]

Ah well it is just game one right?  All hope is not lost right?

Ah who am I kidding.  They are doomed.  I am going to go get drunk.

You're talking to a Royals fan here.

The last time I paid attention to MLB playoffs was 1985.  Which saw the Royals come back from 3-1 deficits in both the ALCS and World Series.  This thing sure isn't over.

[Valmy]

I might be reacting a bit emotionally and not rationally...

Nah.  DOOOOMED.

[Barrister]

Still though - I cannot believe the motherfucking Royals are winning playoff games.  I was 10 years old the last time this happened.  I turn 40 next year.  This is absolutely crazy.  Not sure if I should be buying lottery tickets, or writing out my will.

[Barrister]

And just for derspeiss - the Royals playoff winning streak goes to 8 games.   

[CountDeMoney]

Meh, the KC Magical Mystery Tour is snowballing, they're the darlings now with their daring never-say-die extra inning magic!  The rest of the ALCS is merely procedural.

Eat me, they've been to the WS more recently than the Orioles have, so you can shove that shit sideways with a curling brush.

So much hate...

[CountDeMoney]

For all of the superior outfielding as America's Favorite Team^TM, KC sure has some sloppy infield play.

[CountDeMoney]

Sigh.

Eat me, BB.   Go punt on 3rd down or something. 

[Barrister]

Eat me, BB.   Go punt on 3rd down or something. 

Just crazy.  Royals now extend their playoff winning streak to nine games going back to '85.  Take a 2-0 series lead.  What's bizarre is how they're now doing it with lots of big hits, which is the opposite of what brought them here.

Doesn't really seem sustainable, but I'll take it.

Look on the bright side--at least you ain't a Cubs fan.

Baseball is about streaks, but this has been ridiculous.  One would expect the law of averages to bring them down to the mean, but it's not.  Hope it drops like a fucking anvil.
