The uber-Royals

I often like to think that the Royals might be the most cursed franchise in professional sports. It's always nice to have some other team that put things into perspective, however.

Blake Griffin's NBA debut has been pushed back indefinitely after the Los Angeles Clippers revealed late Monday night that their No. 1 overall draft pick has a broken left kneecap...Los Angeles was mostly healthy going into this fall, with point guard Baron Davis and center Chris Kaman both ready to play after missing chunks of last season. The Clippers actually have solid frontcourt talent with Marcus Camby, Al Thornton and Rasual Butler alongside Griffin.

Being a Royals fan, I can appreciate the hopelessness that many Clippers fans must feel.

On the other hand, at least L.A. fans have two baseball playoff teams and the Lakers.

The Royals have the Chiefs. We win... and by that I mean we lose.
