The song played in the stadium during the first inning last night said it all: “We’re Not Going To
Guillen the role model?
Take It Any More” by Twisted Sister.
The Royals lost their 11th in a row last night, with Twins manager Rod Gardenhire damning us in the worst imaginable way: accepting victory by offering pity and condolences.
During the losing streak, Jose Guillen erupted. He described his teammates as “babies” accustomed to failure. He blasted the culture of failure that permeates the Royals organization — the soft bigotry of low expectations that exists after decades of losing. He used the word “fuck” more than 40 times — a word uttered more times by Royals fans in the last two weeks.
