Kansas City Royals

William Shakespeare was an English poet, playwright, and actor in the mid 1500’s. His most famous works were the tragic plays of Macbeth, Julius Caesar, and Romeo and Juliet. All of these plays have a major theme in common with the Kansas City Royals baseball organization. Shakespeare would say that the Kansas City Royals are one of the most historic and well rounded organizations in all of baseball. The Royals have a tendency to not quit and always keep fighting. Their fight and will has been proven over many seasons of hard work. Their comebacks have been so often that they were once known as the Comeback Kids and rightfully so. They definitely live up to their name and have shown that they are not like any other team. They also relate

"Yond Cassius has a lean and hungry look; He thinks too much: such men are dangerous" (Julius Caesar). This quote represents how the Royals were a dangerous team and how others may have feared them. The battle that the conspirators fought in the book to get Julius Caesar out of power was hard fought and strenuous. The journey to the World Series championship was also hard fought and well deserved. The 1985 Royals worked their rear ends off to get to where they were and have a chance at winning a World Series and they weren’t about to let that chance slip
