Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium
I just had to rinse my mouth out because I think I sarcastically agreed with akp.

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium
I suspect Sherman doesn't want to move the Royals out of the metro but knows he can't deliver a quality product without boosting revenue or paying out of his pocket for players (which isn't sustainable). Aside from anything else, this is the crux of the issue for me. It's not sustainable to pay pla...

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium
Whatever disagreement someone might have with taxi, I can assure you all the dude is not a moron. Also that video was actually pretty funny.

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium
I would be a little surprised if it didn't pass, just based on precedent. Personally, I'm still leaning no, but not as rabidly as the last time this came up less than 20 years ago. Probably still vote no, but honestly don't care enough either way to argue about it.

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium
This whole thing where performative impoliteness has become acceptable / expected is abhorrent and likely to make me, and I would hope, other sane people, instantly support whatever the shitheads are yelling against.

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium
- Mouthpieces saying we shouldn't worry about this "right now" and the process 3 years from now will make it right. We've all been around long enough to see this in action and the neighborhoods left holding the bag as "it's too late" to change the plan. Yeah, it's not just a KC ...

Re: 1587 Prime - Steakhouse in Loews Hotel
Given that 80% of restaurants do just that, it doesn't seem like a very bold prediction there, Kreskin.

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium
I don't entirely blame her, if the bulldozer was approaching the tips of my shoes I might be inclined to be irrational too. But yeah, she goes too far. I might also though, so I'm not sure I should get too bent out of shape about that either. I just don't care and won't listen to her. She has earned...

Re: wtf is happening to w. 39th?!
Aren't they still out in KS? Or did those finally fold too? They were never as good anyway in my experience.

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium
I can't escape the sunk cost fallacy here. I'm not saying we made a mistake 50 years ago, but if we did, is it the right choice to keep making it forever, every (less than) 20 years? I don’t think we made a mistake. Hard to argue that these two sports teams haven’t done more for our cities reputati...

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium
Technically it is financing, but it's not the kind I could go out and get, which makes me wonder why they don't just go to the bank? Because of interest fees, and the whole concept of paying it back? Gotcha. Well, that's insanely good financing if you can get it. They'd theoretically pay it back th...

Re: New Chiefs Stadium
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.

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium
I think this may be the most badly fumbled thing that had the potential to be an easy touchdown I've ever seen in my life. Even as a heavily skeptical and likely no-vote, I'm not happy about this. It's a really bad look. There's time, but not much, to turn things around, and I'm not sure even if we ...

I don't, I actually never really thought to look before. Surely something exists.
