Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium
With a big ask from the city for funding KC residents in Jax co will be getting hit twice. I mean not really right? First off the tax being voted on isn’t exclusive to Jackson county residents. It’s a sales tax on anything bought in JaCo by anyone. The city will probably issue municipal bonds that ...

Re: New Riverfront Women's Soccer Stadium
I do too. This isn't a premier league stadium. It's a stadium for a minor sport.* I'm actually surprised it's as nice as it is. Could have easily been roofless. Haters need to adjust their expectations.
*Nothing against NWSL, just an economic reality.

Re: OFFICIAL: Power & Light District
Pork ribs should not fall off the bone. If they do they are overcooked. That will.lose you points in any BBQ competition.
If you like them that way, go for it. But it's outside the standard.

Re: Restoration of City Control Over KCPD
So, the affect this has on crime, good or bad, shouldn’t be a determinant? Correct. If we had zero crime I would still want local control. No other major city in the US has to deal with this. Right. The origin of state control of the police force was corruption that happened mid last century. It ha...

Re: Restoration of City Control Over KCPD
The argument for local control should have little to do with crime rate. Police should be accountable to the people that they police, not one man living halfway across the state.

Friday and Saturday it gets pretty packed, but I find that to be better than a parking lot. in 5 years when Earls is gone we will be stuck with a weed infested lot.

Re: Trees in KC (ongoing)
Sapling trees are much better than 2", and up, trees. They don't need regular watering except in extreme conditions and they grow a better root system and are easier to plant. And you can pick them up for a few bucks. However, their worst enemy is lawn mowers, so you have to mark them and prote...

Re: New Chiefs Stadium
A communion of his sentence. I wanted to make a joke about Parsons consuming the transmuted blood and body of Christ in a strange ritual in order to accomplish this, but who knows, he may have actually done something like that. Anyway, I think it's a commutation . Doh! Correct. Sometimes spell chec...

I'd be fine with that for Arrowhead. As long as it's in the metro.

Re: New Chiefs Stadium
Just had a couple of people stop by with Vote Yes Flyers. Asked me how I was going to vote. Said undecided. Asked why. Said closing Oak and underwhelming announcement from the Chiefs. Canvasser said "Oh really because I understand they are building a retractable roof to get the Super Bowl"...

Re: New Chiefs Stadium
Who pays the cost of demolition of the K and what is that estimate? BTW does anyone REALLY care that the concrete from the K will be repurposed? Just seems like lip service to be responsible stewards of the environment but maybe (probably) I'm out of touch. Does repurposed mean, used to fill in the...

Re: New Chiefs Stadium
I was ready to vote yes despite my misgivings about Oak being closed, but this has flipped me to no. Public money to upgrade the most expensive and exclusive parts of the stadium, while the rest of us get covered walkways? No thanks. The chiefs will cover those portions while the tax payer will cov...
