Yeah.....

His job will be teaching Hosmer how to suck up all the available cash for the next five years, while we lose Shields, Moose, Escobar and Perez. Then as soon as he gets his huge money, he'll hurt his back and play about 30 games a year for the next four years.

Terrific.

Somewhere Jermaine Dye, Johnny Damon and Carlos Beltran are laughing their collective asses off, and rolling around in a giant pile of money.

And if we don't break .500 this year, we can blame Jesus.

From 2003 to 2007, we paid this guy $11 million per year.

That's $55 million dollars.

During that stretch he only hit .300 one year, in 2005.

Games played:
2003: 108
2004: 106
2005: 122
2006: 60
2007: 74

He stole... STOLE.... $22 MILLION from KC those last two seasons.

Except for 2003 when KC finished 3rd in the AL Central, all of the other four years of Sweeney contract the Royals finished DEAD LAST in the AL Central, including 100 loss seasons in 2004, 2005 and 2006.

And they want this guy back because.....?

Why does he need to work? He already has $55 million Royals Bucks.

If he wants to dress up and be Slugrrr, OK. If he wants to run the carousel, OK. If he wants to be a greeter and serve milk and cookies in the Royals Hall of Fame, OK. But for God's sake, KEEP HIM AWAY FROM THE PLAYERS!!!

Not sure I get all the hate towards Sweeney.

gblowfish 02-07-2014 02:07 PM

While we're at it, let's get Andy Reid to hire Bill Kenney as Chiefs QB Coach. He was 34-43 as a starter. Leadership!

One good thing I'll say about Sweeney, if you call him a Pussy long enough, he'll eventually snap....

Or hire Doug Henry as an organizational pitching coach... oh wait.

People are acting like he faked serious neck and back injuries.

A good Christian (like Gil Meche) would have given the money back because he didn't earn it.

Let this guy go out and save unwed mothers, he does that anyway.
Keep his losing stench away from this Chemistry.
I want winners.
I'm sick of losing.

Hell man, give this job to Lonnie Smith. He won WS rings with THREE different ball clubs!

The only way the Sweeney hate might make sense is if you think he was roided up and broke down because of it.

MIKE SWEENEY BITCHES. LIHOM. (Legend In His Own Mind). Maybe he can get up in the booth more often with Rex now and tell us all again just how great he truly is
