WILD CARD SERIES

The Royals are in the Wild Card World Series. We Kansas city fans wanted another I-70 series but the gods of baseball wasn’t’ having it. After a 29 year drought of no post seasons, several bad years of let downs and disappointments and a exciting up and down season, they have made it back to the highest pinnacle of baseball. How dare we dream that they can take the crown!

The team to beat is the National league champion San Francisco Giants, winners of 2 of the last 4 World Series. This team has a deep history of winning. Only in sports can match up people from 2 different realms of the universe to accomplish the same goal. Both teams have been hot during the playoffs with great pitching and hitting.

It is so great to finally be in the World Series again, and see this town get so excited for one common goal. Total strangers getting along and able to bond and have fun together. It has been a fun ride so far and I look forward to the Royals taking the Crown.

DISAPPOINTING SEASON FOR KU FOOTBALL

What a disappointing football season this is turning out to be. My Jayhawks just lost again, I thought for sure they would be better this year, compared to the season we had last year. I did not expect them to be contenders but I sure thought they would be better than this.

With new coach Charley Weiss, he came in and made many changes in personal in assistants and players, but so far it still looks just the same as last year. I know that this is supposed to be a rebuilding year, but rebuilding is very hard to watch. 

Many critics have said that Charley doesn’t have what it takes to be a head coach. Just look at what he did at Notre Dame. I have always liked him as an offensive coordinator and still have hope he can change things for KU football.

Since this football season has turned out to be another losing season I am already and can’t help it  looking ahead for the basketball season which is right around the corner.
