Anime Online - View Single Post - Annual Losing Teams: Royals Break 19 Game Losing Streak

*Delerium* · Aug 21, 2005, 10:38 AM

Not sure if any of our sports fans on AO noticed but a certain Kansas City team had lost 19 straight baseball games. The streak ended yesterday 2-1 over the A's. Now I look at this streak and wonder how its even possible, I mean I'd say its about as likely as a team winning 19 in a row. Its hard to lose 19 straight games no matter how bad you are. What would you guys do if you were a fan of a team as bad as this? I mean this is pretty bad. The Royals had a decent season (.500ish) a few years back but have been horrible since.

They arent alone in their misery, this happens in all sports.

Football has the Arizona Cardinals, Basketball had the Bulls and now the Hawks, other baseball teams include Tampa Bay D-Rays and the Pittsburgh Pirates.

I have to give props to those fans that stick with bad teams through the years. I've been a Hawks fan for about 10 years now and its been very depressing over the last few seasons, but I refuse to give up.

Any other AO sports fans suffer from the same disappointment every year? How do you think your team could improve?
