Fans just spent the entire weekend watching, listening to, and loathing their counterparts from the East as they got to see up close how fun it must be to be a fan of a good team. But none of these things are on my mind this Monday because there is something more important at hand. The city of Kansas City, Missouri is gravely close to opening the door for the Royals to walk right out, and I’m not sure that’s a bad thing.
