  • The morning after the KC Royals won the 2015 ALDS vs. the Astros, Rex was on sports talk radio discussing the upcoming ALCS against the Toronto blue jays. Hudler says, "The Royals need to drop a Royal blue turd right in the blue jays nest." The radio hosts were laughing so hard they had to brake to a commercial.

    Thomas Pynchon
