Why everyone should root for Royals?

The best World Series is the one goes on to the Game 7 and the champion is not born until the 9th inning of the Game 7.  To have SF Giants as the World Series champion is worn and stale, it is time to see the fresh blood like Kansas City Royals to be “crowned” as the champion.

German troops entered Paris 6/14/194
After coming back from England or as the Bard would say “this sceptered Isle”, I have a lot of stories to tell why everyone should root for the Royals.

The Battle of France lasted for a bit over one month.  Hitler invaded France on May 10, 1940 and the German troops entered Paris—the “Open City”—on June 14.  You may or may not know it that there were more French troops than German troops facing each other when the war came in 1939 and yet French went under in no time and the England stood alone for one year and half until the Americans came.

The difference is one has royalty, the other has not.  I have written “George VI’s contribution in fighting Hitler Nazi”,

Having a king and a queen stayed around during the Blitz and the six years of war is worth one million people, troops or civilians.  The above photo is taken from the book we bought at Buckingham Palace showing King George VI and his queen and Churchill inspecting the bomb damage to a chapel.
“God Save the King” is not an empty slogan; the king is the gravity that pull the nation together under the Nazi’s might.  This is my observation; not everyone will buy it, though.
The Giants is leading 3 to 2 at the top of 6th inning as I am writing.  We had a Royal Day Out on September 22; I am hoping it will not be Royals Out tonight.  Go! Royals, Go!
