In the past, I’ve written stories critical of how the Royals organization has handled their downtown stadium negotiations. And while I don’t back away from the ham-handed way that process has been going, I did start to wonder if perhaps I have gotten the wrong idea about Royals owner John Sherman.
After all, I’ve never met Sherman, so it’s impossible to know someone without meeting them. This got me wondering, have I formed the wrong opinion about John Sherman? Has my opinion of him been unfairly influenced by online comments and stories, and thus have not gotten a true bearing into the man himself?
