2012 Kansas City Royals Repository Thread
2012 Slogan: Our Time
A better, more accurate 2012 Slogan: It is Finally Next Year (from Great Expectations) An alternative slogan if you don't like that one: Someone has to win this crappy division (from alnorth) With the beginning of a new year, it is time for the 2012 version of the Royals Repository Thread. We've got Hosmer, we've got a 2011-dominating Gordon, we've got Moose, we've got hopefully a killer bullpen, we've got a stereotypical slow slugging DH, we've got easily one of the best defensive shortstops in the AL, we've got a promising catcher in Salvador Perez. Hell, we've got offense and promising prospects galore. We do not have starting pitching. Oh yeah, we've also got this: ![]() Get ready for, (as of January 2012 anyway), one of the most confusing puzzles of a baseball season in recent Royals history. Will they suck? Maybe, I don't know. Will we be given a year of 0.500 baseball? Possibly, I don't know. Will they win the division and go to the playoffs for the first time in 27 years? For the first time in a long time, it could happen, I don't know. 92 losses, 92 wins, or anything in between would not surprise a lot of us. Everything goes here except Gameday threads and really big news. If a giant story breaks, the Royals achieve some awesome milestone, or we sign/lose a highly significant player/coach/mascot/whatever, then it might also deserve its own thread. This being Chiefs Planet, please do not clutter the board with new threads about trivial Royals news or you will only annoy those who come here for just Chiefs football. If you aren't sure and its not a Gameday thread, it goes here. What sort of stuff often goes here? SPchief explained it well, so I'll just copy that: Quote:

Jesus, these moose antlers are the dick in the mouth in this rape celebration of a season. We're The Great Outdoors of sports movies.

Fun at the ol ballpark. Tomorrow they'll be kids toys, next week they'll be torn up and headed for the trash.

Just admit you want to keep him under team control every single day possible and you aren't interested in putting the best team on the field right now. We'd be pissed but we might actually have some modicum of respect for the truth.

Hoch gives up a grand slam to Maeur and the Twinks lead 8-2 still in the top of the 2nd

Royals lose 8-7 after a damn near miraculous comeback. Thanks Hoch, you mental midget. Dyson picked off in the ninth while pinch-running? I'm pretty sure he was safe at second, but still. WTF?
