David Glass says he is ‘obsessed with winning.’ Wait, what?

Although it might be hard to believe, as the city does its best impression of a cryogenic freezer, Kansas City Royals’ spring training begins next week. Which, of course, means that it’s time for team officials to start bloviating (lying) about what a wonderful season is in store for the team faithful.

Kicking off the preseason period of morale boosting and measured raising of expectations, team owner David Glass gave a ridiculous interview to MLB.com in which he discusses top minor league prospects (calling them “kids” 10 times) and how winning seasons are surely soon to come. Oh, and he’s not selling the team.
