I just suck then.
I have no problem keeping them winning, but the post season is more of a crap shoot. I have 35 years of history, missed the post season the first year and have 34 straight 100+ win seasons, 34 straight seasons in the top 3 in pitching, 34 straight seasons in the top 3 in hitting, 34 straight division championships...

I have 12 World Series wins, 18 world series appearances, and once had 3 World Series wins in a row. Most appearances in the World Series in a row was 5.

Call it the resurgence of the Kansas City Royals. I started off with an 80 million budget, it's currently at 148 million.

It's what you learn after you know it all that counts.
