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:

Hopefully you don't get revised sig requests in August.
(e.g. "hey, give me Ned Yost yelling while getting his ass thrown out by the umpire, and also one from the game last week where Cain was looking up in the sky while the ball bounced behind him. Both of them with the phrase, 'Not Yet' ")

![]() OK Simplicity if you can't fulfill my Biancalana dream how about Tim Belcher adjusting his cup behind the mound with the words "some time."

I wouldn't mind one with Ken Harvey as a fat cartoon panda with the words "No can take buffet."

If you get one of Ken Harvey it has to be him falling over the Tarp with a RIP sign.

AL, you can take my name out of the thread starter. When I started the repository a few years ago, I took that quote from you from the previous years repository.

I'd like to request two signatures. I'm going to put them next to each other. I want this Escobar pic
![]() And this Hosmer pic ![]() I'd like just the Our Time slogan in simple font (none of that squiggly stuff, I'm not a fan) and maybe some cool effects like you've done, just make them look cool. If I can't have them both as a sig due to how the pic layouts one being horizontal and the other vertical, I'll take the Escobar one as a Avatar and get rid of Jessica for the season. |

I don't think my Biancalana or Belcher sigs are being taken seriously. Which is good. I'm all sig'd up.
Simplicity is 15 years old anyway... he has homework to do instead of catering to every whim of a bunch of adult baseball fans.

Check this aerial shot from Arizona. I think is cool that the Surprise complex has one field with the dimensions of The K and one field with the dimensions of Rangers Ballpark. Royals should be able to play in Arlington like it their second home. Not really, but cool imagery.
