The Kansas City Royals have a proud baseball history and the millions of their fans who spend their time and hard earned money deserve ownership who is dedicated to winning by every available means. Not just by drafting and development, but also through acquiring talent by paying market value for top free agents and through intelligent trading.
David Glass's tenure as owner has seen the Royals average 68 wins per season (not counting the 2012 final win total) with no reprieve in sight, given General Manager Dayton Moore's statement on sports radio 810 WHB that the Royals will not be competitive until 2014. David Glass's tenure as owner has seen the Royals' revenue sharing monies increase dramatically with little reflection of that in the major league payroll.
We demand new ownership that is willing to invest in a forward thinking , sabermetric inclined front office. We demand new ownership that is willing to take its hefty revenue sharing monies and reinvest that in major league payroll. We demand new ownership that isn't content to remain secluded in Bentonville, Arkansas and remaining detached from the Greater Kansas City area. We demand change, now.

The growth of this petition has reached a level that commands attention from local sports media. I am currently finalizing a formal document to deliver to ownership that details our specific demands for reinvestment and front office accountability.

Bentonville doesnt care about baseball. Get someone in here who actually lives in the city and wants to win.
Enough is enough. Been a season ticket holder for years and I am tired of watching them pocket the cash instead of building a roster. Sell the team.
TOTAL WASTE OF MONEY GOING TO THE BALLPARK. FIX THE PAYROLL.
We keep waiting for 2014 or 2015 or whatever year they make up next. Just sell the team and let someone else have a go at it.
Same old story every single year. Glass needs to go.

KC deserves better. It feels like we are just a farm team for the bigger markets and I am so over it.
