Thanks for that pick me up. The Royals haven't been to the playoffs since 85'. Truly helpful you are.
Glad to help. Didn't know about Royals though. Honestly. Only teams I know are Cubs, Yankees, Red Sox and Mariners.

A. We suck B. We're a small team in the midwest C. We suck D. We really, really suck but won a World series in 85' so no one feels pity for us.

If anyone reads this, I need some happy news. K-State basketball coach Frank Martin just left after a childish public feud with our athletic director. The news is bleak and this is me.

As you get more immersed into the world of Derby County Football Club, eventually you will come to realise what true misery is all about. What you are going through at the moment is nothing.

It is bad form though for an englishman to show his emotions in public....if you really wish to belong then please desist from shmaltzy, mawkish, sentimental blurge. Cry privately, wash your face in cold water than stride back into the fray......

Keep a stiff upper lip my good man. :D

Yes, go to the pub, drink too much beer, pick up a fight and get your ass kicked and make a ass of yourself. But no crying. That is the Finnish way to support your team. :unsure:

Can't I punch and cry and laugh and drink? Seriously I'm really good at multitasking.

As a man of many sports. I thrive off my misery. It's all I have half the time.
