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:

Jon, the holdup is that the D-Backs need more than asdrubal for upton. We know that because it's what you said right before you said you didn't know what the holdup is. Something must've been lost in the translation when Scott Boras was telling Heyman what to say.

Just perused the Royals Review Day 3 WM thread (I know, I know, exercise in futility).
Unbelievably negative reaction there. Calling Holland a "meh" return for ANYTHING. Just further proof of the cesspool of negativity that is that site...

There's a place more negative than Chiefsplanet?
Let me guess - it'd David Price or bust, right?

Picture what Chiefsplanet would be like if, instead of being really good in the 90s, the Chiefs had been a laughing stock that whole time...

Can we at least pretend the Chiefs won the Super Bowl in 1985?
