It was the lead on SportsCenter this morning, and finished #1 on plays of the day.

Jonny Gomes to KC. This team has a lot of solid players now. They get Rios and Infante out of the lineup, 1-9 is STACKED now.

It's a blast watching Gore in KC. With so much more talent in KC this year, will be interesting who they put on their playoff roster.

Houston it is. They have great starting pitching and have home run threats up and down the lineup. Their defense is second in the AL to KC. Should be a fun series between two teams with a lot of young talent.

And they used their 20 game winner tonight, so he might make the Game 3 start...

So any projections on how far the Royals will go?

Would like to think they can make it to the WS and maybe win it but with last year being a dream season I am not sure I see it happening.
For the record  NEBUGEATER does not equal BUGEATER    !!!!!!!

ALCS, and lose to the Jays there. The Royals offense has not been good enough this season.

And the crazy thing is, the Royals offense is better than last year.

Toronto scares me but it is more based on the Royals starting pitching.

Cueto has to be the ace he was brought here to be. The bullpen isn't as strong as last year so the starters are going to have to step up. One good thing is that in the playoffs they don't have to throw a 5th starter. Maybe even get by with a 3 man rotation of the schedule falls in their favor.

Yeah, I should clarify that the offense has not been good enough to beat the Blue Jays this year. If they were facing the Rangers, I think it'd be a different story.

Holy |expletive| is that a brutal way for Gore to get "thrown out" at 3rd. Ugh.

I did not make it either. Do you know where they shot that pick from? I was thinking the top of the WW1 Memorial would be a great place to be today.

I wanted to go to the parade part, but after I saw the parade route photos, I am glad I didn't have any vacation.

Saw somewhere they were estimating 500,000 people.

Last reports I saw said there was close to 800k there. Heard KC's mayor this morning on the radio this morning and said they got tons of calls from Iowa, Nebraska, Arkansas along with Kansas and Missouri asking about parking and recommendations.

All those people and only 3 minor arrests. No rioting the night they won. So cool for KC.
