Yes, they're more consistently competitive than the Royals year to year and don't have as long of a 'down cycle' when they hit it, but what has it gotten them?
A's have NEVER had any post-season success with this current formula and the Rays DID go to one World Series back in 08, but promptly got swept.
The Royals at least got back to back WS out of it, a trophy, and were within a hair of two trophies. Which result would you honestly rather have?

Why do Royals fans think they have to choose one or the other?
