I've been a dual Cubs-Royals fan for as long as I can remember. On the Cubs, since about 1982, when I'd come home from school and catch the middle---or end---of afternoon games on WGN. On the Royals, since about 1977-78, when I remember watching the American League playoff games against the Yankees. My allegiances have resulted in common foes: the Cardinals, White Sox, and the Yankees---the last being a vestige of those first Royals memories.
Although I was born in Kansas City (raised there and in Harrisonville) and resided in Columbia, MO for eight years, I have lived in Chicago since 1997.
