OK, how many baseball fans are out there? Give a shout out for you favorite team.

I hope you Red Sox fans are getting nervous, the Yankees are catching up and be knocking you off your pedestal soon.... well, the Rays will probably do that first.

Favorite team would be who ever is playing against the Yankees and then the Cards and the Cubbies.

What if we are fans but embarrassed to admit who our favorite teams are? My favorite team set records last year, but no the kind one usually brags about. x:-8

I am not exactly a closet fan though. I have a blue and white monkey from the infamous "I Believe" campaign on my key chain.

Nae, is it Kansas City????

She needs to inform Glass that he can't run the Royals like he did Wally-World. This is not the time for discount players if you are gonna win....

You know that, and I know that, but this particular owner keeps insisting that it isn't how much you pay your players that matters.

Actually, he is right up to a point. However, if you finally get someone on your payroll who really doesn't earn that much (compared to other teams) and is an outstanding player, it really defeats the purpose when you constantly trade them for 2-3 more unknowns and hope they will do as well.

I haven't even been to one game this year; worse, I stopped watching on tv. It is too painful. At least it looks like we might not set any records like last year. You know, record team losses in one year, etc etc. If things don't change soon they will have to change their name to something more appropriate. It is for sure the only one 'Royal' is Glass, and that is just because he acts like he thinks he is Royalty and knows all.

Nae, we'll gladly give you Steinbrenner....

Going back to my roots I have always been a cardinal's fan. Don't get to watch many games as summer is always such a blur and fall doesn't slow down much before things speed up for the winter season.

Time is in such short commodity always...wish it could be slowed down sometimes.

In the 80's I was a big time KC Royals fan, back when they were winning of course. It has been tough for the last 10 years are so, and like Nae we haven't been to a game for a long time, and only check them on tv to see if they won. They have had some good wins this year but also had a 12 game losing streak.
It's similar to what we've been experiencing with the KC Chiefs; such a great history but can't even make the playoffs any more.
It's a good thing our 2 universities have decent football and basketball programs; at least we have someone to cheer for!!

In that case, steaks, this one's for you:

Go Sox.

Though the Rays are already in first place here in the east, the Yanks still have a ways to go. Sorry to disappoint you, but I'm not nervous.

Come on, Ray, you know you want to.

No way, Kimberly. But just to show you how magnanimous us NY'ers can be, if for some reason the Sox do win the pennant, I will root for them against the NL.

Detroit Tigers-Baby!!! I was at the game were Verlander threw his no hitter. It was awesome. No one sat down after the seventh inning.

I heard we have a team here in town, but I don't know if they are any good...

After last night I think I might have to do away with my key chain (monkey). Even a 'bad-weather' friend can get too much of a bad thing.

After hearing the final score (19-4) my husband asked if I was talking baseball or football. They are SOOOOOO embarrassing sometimes!
