The people of Kansas City want to be optimistic about the Kansas City Royals beating the San Francisco Giants on Tuesday night in Game 6 of the World Series, a feat which is required to force Game 7. Still, many TV viewers watching Game 5 on Sunday probably were caught off guard by an advertisement from Dick's Sporting Goods that congratulated the Royals on being the "2014 World Series champions!" and urged fans to buy the same kind of apparel players probably were soaking with celebratory Champagne and beer at that very moment. Holy "Dewey Defeats Truman!" Good omen? Or just bad timing? The commercial was more than just a few hours premature; even if the Royals had won Game 5, they still would have been one victory short of their first championship in 29 years.
