Go Royals!

At the risk of jinxing this good fortune, the Kansas City Royals have a four-game winning streak! I became more of a Royals fan while I was laying out sports pages — I suppose I stay a fan because I tend to keep cheering for teams that lose a lot. I like the Cubs, too. I grew up in a pretty solidly Cardinals household, but listening to Cubs broadcasts on WGN radio in the early days of our marriage (when we had no TV) produced a switch in loyalties. Sorry Dad.
