The Royals failed another trade deadline by not trading Whit Merrifield

The Kansas City Royals suck. Some of you might be a little taken back by the forwardness of that statement, but you should not be for two reasons. First, because there are no true swears in that sentence, and second because the Royals have sucked so bad that they absolutely deserve an entire encyclopedia worth of swears.

Put it this way: 2004 through 2006 is widely considered to be the worst and most painful stretch in Royals history. The team lost 310 games, at least 100 a year, and the teams were stacked with a parade of no-name players who were, to put it simply, not Major League caliber.
