We Interrupt This Broadcast ...

... to bring you an update on a matter of great significance:

It's officially October, and the Royals are still playing ball!!!!!!!!!

Please pardon the nostalgia from a middle-aged, long-suffering Royals fan. My old man and my big brother Chris took me to Game 5 of the 1985 ALCS. I was 12, and it's one of the best memories of my childhood. Royals were down 3-1 in the series, had to win to stay in. Danny Jackson pitched a gem, and KC manufactured two small ball runs and held on.

That team was a bunch of fighters, and while I know better than to make any predictions, this 2014 squad is satisfying to watch for the same reason.

much peace,
tjb
