Re: Congrats Royals Fans!
I would also be willing to wait a long time and have my team make a serious run or win a championship.
As a lifelong Pirates fan, it was well worth the wait to be able to experience last years Wild Card win, as well as pushing the Cardinals to the brink in the NLDS. I was hoping for another step forward this year, but it was still nice to see them make the playoffs.
I was not alive for the Super Bowl wins in the 70's for the Steelers, but they definitely put us through some tough losses in the 90's and 00's (AFC Championship Games in 94, 97, 01, 04 - Super Bowl XXX) before winning the "one for the thumb". All of those losses were definitely worth it though.
I am pulling for the Royals, but will not be too disappointed in the Orioles win as well. Just hoping either or them can knock off the Cards or Giants!

Re: Congrats Royals Fans!
For the first time ever, an MLB team has won 4 straight Extra Innings games in the playoffs. Go KC

Re: Congrats Royals Fans!
As a lifelong Royals fan I can't even begin to describe the energy that this team has brought to the city let alone the feeling of euphoria that comes with every pitch, inning, hit and run.
The best part of it all is that the next generation has now seen some winning baseball. I got to take my 10 year old to the clincher against LA on Sunday and I was so happy he got to see that moment.
I should have known it was going to be a special season with how SungWoo's visit went while he was here. It was magical in itself and I got to spend quite a bit of time with him and learn a little about South Korean culture and history. He also knows more history of the Royals that most people who live here know.
Magical season so far...I hope it continues through the weekend and into next week and onto the WS.

Another great win highlighted by a Moose catch for the ages. Every long suffering fan base is watching this team in envy right now.

Re: Congrats Royals Fans!
It is unreal. This season is magical. From me and my fiance hosting SungWoo in Kansas City to the playoffs and now world series. Didn't miss a playoff game however the WS is a different story with these ticket prices. GO ROYALS!
