Same Old, Same Old
Well, it's 10 games into the 2006 season (otherwise known as Royals purgatory for the remaining KC fanbase) and the boys in blue are looking for another record-breaking season.
Unfortunately, it's looking like another franchise shattering record for losses at their current pace, maybe even a major league record if things don't turn around very quickly.
Who's going to lead them? Buddy Bell? HA! That's a laugh.
Right now, what's left of the Royals fans are seeing an exact duplicate of Tony Pena in Buddy Bell, as far as managerial brains are concerned.
Of course, you're only as good as the players you have, so thanks to Allard Baird and David Glass, Buddy's really behind the 8-ball, given his lack of ability to manage a game with any foresight whatsoever.
Mr. Bell had a career .422 winning percentage as a manager coming into the 2006 season. And so far this year, it's gone down even further after a scintillating 2-8 start that threatens to doom the Royals to their 11th losing season in the last 14.
It's obvious to any Royals fan that Allard Baird, David Glass, and Dan Glass hired the least expensive manager that was available.
How budget conscious of the Royals. After all, they are rolling back prices everyday! ****extreme sarcasm****
As a lifelong Royals fan, I have finally hit my limit with the amount of ridiculously inept and downright stupid decisions made by the front office and managerial staff of this organization.
When the Royals hired Buddy Bell, I was stupefied. I couldn't believe that they hired the worst possible manager for the job, but in hindsight it makes perfect sense.
Especially if they are trying to get the Royals to be contracted after the current deal runs out.
