all about that baseball

I keep dithering about whether to request Kansas City Royals RPF for Yuletide this year.

pros:

• clearly the thing I have been most fannish about this year, in terms of time spent watching it, listening to it, talking about it, reading about it, etc., etc.
  
• definitely rare, in that there's all of one piece of Hosmer/Moustakas on AO3 which seems to be very vague brief pining and also it is in Chinese
  
• makes me giddy with enthusiasm
  
• at Christmas I may be mourning another postseason heartbreak and someone will have written something to cheer me up

cons:

• too rare?
  
• I mean, I'm actually getting shippier stuff from the spots they run on Fox Sports Kansas City than from fandom at this point, which is just wrong
  
• realistically not a fandom that anyone is going to pick up on a whim, either
  
• on the off chance that anyone does write it I may still be too distraught from postseason heartbreak at Christmas to read it

I dunno. I feel like getting overinvested in a bunch of dorks in frumpy uniforms was a poor life choice.
