Why are there so many "royals fans" here all of a sudden. I get it, most of your teams fans don't know much about baseball because they just started watching a few months ago, so there is not much to discuss with them ... So instead you come here to try and talk, let us go for the night.

Have at it, I'll go back to lurking and sharing the more memorable gems from this meltdown on Twitter.

There's a lot of b*tching and complaining about the lack of class shown by some of the Royals, but there are a lot of people posting here who seriously need to look at themselves in a mirror.

This is an Orioles message board... if we can't vent here, where can we?

OH wow.

Third, I understand the beef with Dyson's comments (though he wasn't wrong) but what on earth did Eric Hosmer do? He made a gesture towards the third base dugout after a big hit? C'mon. Grow up, and realize that these are kids in their early twenties having the time of their lives.

I wish you all the best in this series and beyond, but I'm appalled by how whiny a good part of your fanbase appears to be.

Baseball is a game (maybe the last of the major sports) that is supposed to be played with some class. Hosmer's antics on the field (stupid dance he does every time he gets a hit) and his screaming like an insane person in the dugout every time someone gets a bloop single are not ways of displaying class.

Not sour grapes. Your team has played well and they deserve to be where they are. It would just be an even better story if they could do it classy.

Keep it classy, just like your players. I know the Midwest is a boring wasteland but surely there must be something else you could be doing after winning game 3 of the ALCS.

What about my original post was classless? And yeah, I have something to do, like getting ready for work tomorrow. I've got a busy morning ahead of me because I've got a lot to get done before a champagne celebration in the afternoon.

This is so bizarre. It's not like there's some kind of KC-BAL rivalry. If the Orioles were up 3-0 it would never occur to me to seek out a Royals online forum to read the posts of sad Royals fans. I mean Red Sox, Yankees, sure, but Royals? No.

Coming here to tell us how "appalled" you are with our fan base.. how is that not antagonistic? I was planning on rooting for the Royals if they beat us but your team and fans have rubbed me the wrong way.

Classless players, classless "fanbase".

Exactly. The Royals haven't been relevent in most peoples life time, now all of the sudden they are acting like the Yankees, haha. Whatever, man, let them ride the BABIP wave, just like every wave, it will break in due time.

      Well he isn't exactly tearing it up since he got sent down.  I think he is something like 6 for 31 since?  Which makes him 8 for 70  (roughly) since his call up. Which is batting around .115 or so for the past month. He has obviously hit a level of talent that he is not handling all that well.  Considering his age, unless he really starts tearing it up?  I would be inclined to leave him down in AAA all year until the late season call ups.

      Some Absurd Trade Ideas from the Reds Forums

      By OnlyOneOriole · Posted

      Roy, man I love you as a sportscaster personality and more importantly as just a genuinely nice person.   I do. But this is why I said last week in the thread you made about how the O's would get blown out by the Yankees that you are saying things lately that don't seem to be making much sense and many other posters would be banned by now for the same things. And don't get me wrong.  I don't want you banned and I hope you keep posting for a long long time.  You are a true O's, albeit very emotional..FAN. But Roy, read the OP.  He clearly said those trade ideas were from a Red's message board. 2 times I believe. Cmonnnnnnnn man!   BTW as far as the actual trade ideas?  Laughable.  Not even being a homer.  But just laughable.

      Which of our position players would be the best catcher?

      By thegardner · Posted

      Kremer is an excellent athlete and I think, think, I heard he had some experience catching.

      One of our friends ran into him at a game. He invite him, his girlfriend, and her two kids up into the owners’ suite to watch the game with him.

      Which of our 8 starters would make the best closer?

      By Billy F-Face3 · Posted

      Kremer is included in that, so we will have to take somebody out of the rotation and it will be a difficult decision. Hopefully we can preserve their ammunition for late in the season, by somehow rotating the rotation.

      Just based on pure stuff to overwhelm hitters at the end of a game, I'd say this would be Grayson Rodriguez. But I'd rather have Grayson Rodriguez as a starter so I went with Albert Suarez because he has some swing and miss in his very good stuff, and I don't want to take Burnes/Bradish/Means/Rodrigez/Irvin out of the Rotation. So by default it goes to the best swing and miss guy we have not in the starting rotation, and I'm mindful of how alot of former starters have become superb closers. (I'm thinking of Smoltz, right off the bat).

      I bet it would be so much fun to sit with him and watch a game and talk baseball. Like you said, he seems like a warm and friendly person, but he's also smart and knows his baseball history (and world history too).
