About Mike Sweeney

This is the first time I’ve been near a stable(ish) Internet connection since the news came out Friday that Mike Sweeney signed a one-day contract with the Royals and retired. Like many Royals fans of this era, I have Opinions about Sweeney. But unlike most cynical bloggers out there, mine are positive ones. Mike Sweeney, …

Omaha loves Mike Sweeney

Michael John Sweeney may only have played one of the games of tonight’s double-header in Omaha, but Sweeney Fever left the whole crowd feeling happy and energized through the last out of a fantastic second game. Other than a couple of hits, Omaha couldn’t get a whole lot going in the first game. Maybe they …

Sweeney to become an A, and more

Well, the wait is over for Mike Sweeney fans. We know where he’s going, and that’s to Oakland. I’m happy he gets to be closer to home. I’m happy that a somewhat likeable team is getting all the things I love about my best friend Michael John Sweeney. I’m happy that he is no longer …

Sweeney home among those endagered by Cal. fires

When I heard about the fires in California, for some reason Mike Sweeney popped into my head. I of course knew he was a SoCal guy, and I wondered how or if the fires have affected him. Turns out, very significantly. “We only had time to grab what we could. We got our marriage certificate, …

Who will join Ryan LeFebvre on FSKC?

The Royals’ parting of ways with Frank White* was ugly. Nearly two months later, we still do not know exactly what happened, and we may never know (although I would totally ghost-write a Frank White tell-all if he’s looking for someone). *and Kevin Shank!

A Royal Blues Year in Review, Part One

The obligatory end-of-the-year post is being broken up into parts to allow for more pictures of Eric Hosmer (and other people and things). This is Part One. January I was chosen to be a part of the Royals Digital Digest at FanFest! Before I went to KC, I noted that Anthony Lerew is married – …

Looking back and looking forward

Long story short (for once), I didn’t go out for New Year’s. That puts me here, in my computer chair, at less than two hours into 2009, and somehow I don’t feel any different than I did before 12:00 struck. Also, all the cool kids are doing years-in-review, so I have to too! This blog …

Birthday cake, Royals style

So, it is my birthday. Last year on my birthday, I was at Rosenblatt to watch Scott Elarton give up 3 2-run homers in the first inning, and a solo shot in the 2nd. I don’t think I need to say this, but the O-Royals went on to lose that one. Pretty miserable present, right? …
