I Love A Parade!
-
@globaljaybird Is that overhead shot at Union Station where the rally will be held?
-
Eddie Volquez & his adorable twin daughters…good for him !
-
@brooksmd Which feed are you on?
-
@globaljaybird Salvy should have his MVP trophy on top of the truck.
-
@globaljaybird Watching both. Liked the chant for EV
-
@globaljaybird One year for Mardi Gras the town of Covington about 10 miles south of me had the Bud Clydesdales. Central Covington is small town USA. Saw them turn a corner at one intersection that is tough in a pickup. Amazing.
-
@brooksmd When you see The huge arches on the front of the building, you should recognize Union Station. Was completely restored about 15 yrs ago financed with a bi-state tax, but the outside looks the same as it did when we rode the passenger trains there in the 1950’s.
-
@globaljaybird Not all that familiar with KC. Is it near the old induction center I went to in 67?
-
@globaljaybird Great story about the Giants ordering pizza for K staff. Very cool.
-
@brooksmd Also the large, towering, cylindrical monument just to the west of Union Station is the WW I Liberty Memorial Museum. I believe it is the only dedicated WW I Museum in the US.
-
Wouldn’t it be cool if mrs zobrist delivered w/dr right now?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Would definitely be an anchor baby to keep them in KC.
-
@brooksmd They were right across the street from each other when I took my physical in 69’, Yes. They fed us breakfast at 6:00am that morning at Fred Harvey’s in Union Station. Don’t know if the old Govt building still stands. Only get down that way once or twice a year to Sprint Center.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 WTH ?!
-
She seems like a trooper! Not me!
-
@globaljaybird Don’t remember eating and I think we must’ve have left late that nite as I remember getting off the bus at Lackland, not a soul anywhere except our TI’s, they fed us, put us to bed and seemed like we no sooner hit the sack and the TI was in the dorm yelling at us to get up.
-
Is Joel and HUD announcing parade?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 They are on the foxsports one & local fox 4 coverage.
-
@globaljaybird Game 5 highlights are showing on the huge LED screen outside Union Station now. Pumpin up the crowd for the rally abt 10-15 min away.
-
To bad we have to listen to buck and Harold ! Worth it though
-
@Crimsonorblue22 In the back of a pickup?! I sure as the devil hope not !
-
I can’t see game. Can u?
-
Hey @curmudgeonjhwk howzit?
-
Enjoying the parade on MLB.com
-
@curmudgeonjhwk I didn’t think to check MLB channel. It’s on there also. Is that regular broadcast team for Royals on MLB?
-
Weather is absolutely GEORGEOUS for this parade. Low 70’s. sunny blue skies. If the series had gone to a game 6, the weather is supposed to be Krap-rain & cold…This was just meant to be.
-
Judging by the comments made towards Mets must be Royals broadcasters.
-
@globaljaybird wouldn’t game 6 be today?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Yep
-
@Crimsonorblue22 yep but the parade…
-
@globaljaybird confused
-
This makes me smile!!
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Remember saying Esky wasn’t a good leadoff hitter because his hitting was so bad during the reg season. Boy did he come through in post season. Hope he keeps swinging at those first pitch fastballs. Thats his bread n butter.
-
@globaljaybird Did you notice when Esky hit that double in the 12th how far the 3rd baseman was playing off the line? There was no way in hell he could stop one down the line.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Why does that not surprise me? There is NO way they could pull this thing off in less than 24 hrs and the parade has to be with 48 hrs of the end of the game as per MLB rules. So there is a100% chance of rain on Thursday.
-
ESKY!!
-
Get lil momma a chair!
-
@brooksmd Poor fundamentals-you guard the line late in a close game=no brainer
-
People started parking cars & camping out last night for parade spots at Union Station.
-
Man whata seta lungs !
-
Looks like Vargas with the WS Trophy? - Ya think they’d have someone who’s not recently had arm surgery hangin on to that baby?!
-
@globaljaybird You think management will let go the purse strings to keep Gordo and Zo? Maybe even redo some other contracts?
-
Jonny Gomes…the hell with PC!!!
-
@brooksmd Hard to say boss. @Crimsonorblue22 pasted a link yesterday that had the upcoming dates & numbers for tendering offers to FAs by their respective teams & I think minimum for 1 yr deals are over 15 mil. After abt 6 days they can then neg on the open market. That’d be 30 mil for just 2 guys when the whole payroll is just 117 mil. Sadly I have my doubts. This is a very special blend of talent & personalities but they’re gonna get a lot of money thrown at them. The big Hang up for ZO is the 2 yrs they still have to pay Infante. Gordon wants to stay so I think that’s a real possibility but my gut says ZO is gone.
-
@globaljaybird Well I guess we’ll find out soon who likes to play the game, win and get paid and who plays the game to get paid.
-
@brooksmd Guys said Gordon is such a health & conditioning phanatic he has not even had a slice of pizza in about 10 years. Not many people on the entire planet have that kinda dedication.
-
@globaljaybird Well ya ol fart, I still have more curtain rods to put up. Come to find out last night when my wife ordered the one long rod to put above three 4 ft wide windows see didn’t include the 6" space between them so the rod was short. So going with individuals above each window. She had 2 and ordered 3rd one last night. Look for you tmrw nite for some KU bb.
-
@globaljaybird I haven’t had a SINGLE slice…
