Strawberry Hill NIMBYs. They got organized to help organize opposition to the Woodside Village Rosedale project. A bit backwards considering they live miles away.

I don’t recall this. SH nimbys couldn’t organize a one man parade.

Missouri doesn't have a great record of fighting to keep NFL teams.

They did fight but lost the battle

U-Haul gets to stay and property values stay low in the East Crossroads. Plus, people can still ride their bikes to the women’s soccer games. Everyone wins!

Keep the East xroads site. Tear down the surrounding crap one story shanty buildings and turn it into green space. Man, wouldn’t that be a dilemma for the Twitter virtue signalers. Maybe put a couple bike racks in there too in order to secure the incel vote.

Side note - thoughts on why Strawberry Hill hasn't really taken off yet? It's close to DTKC, has a nice collection of restaurants and bars (albeit not high-end), interesting views and history. Housing stock just too old/small? KCK decay/reputation gets in the way? Is crime an issue? Often had these...

Already know more details about the Chicago Bears news stadium announced today and ever did about Royals plan, just for an idea of how proper new stadium plans get announced. Also they are funding 70% of it themselves. Oh no!!! “But Friends of the Parks, a not-for-profit group that advocates for th...

If you want to leave. Leave. You don’t have to do an 1,500 word “Look at me and please beg me to stay” plea. I didn’t take that as a beg me to stay post at all. It came off as a “this forum is getting way out of hand” with stupid statements and politics and multiple, multiple accounts to try and in...

There is nothing greater in the world of social media than rambling “I’m leaving” screeds And nothing worse that people would just dismiss someone leaving a community because you can't actually see their face. If you want to leave. Leave. You don’t have to do an 1,500 word “Look at me and please be...

Her business model is simplistic. Sell the minimum amount of food required legally to obtain liquor license. Sell bullshit fancy sounding cocktails with a 5000% profit margin (don't forget the dash of biters). Allow outside food to avoid needing any kind of kitchen or kitchen staff. Keep everything...

Wow, how will she ever survive? Subsidies and accounting? Her business model is simplistic. Sell the minimum amount of food required legally to obtain liquor license.

She's back at it. Misinformation and smear campaign in full force. In my opinion, you should sue her. Well I personally wouldn't sue her but I do think some people should, including Matt Abbott. However, you just give her a bigger platform at that point. She's been emboldened by the same 25 people ...

Since most of us will be waiting for a while for some actual news, I'm going to throw out a wild stadium site. I think you could squeeze a stadium in north of 43rd and Broadway Blvd. Westport would be the entertainment district. It's a couple blocks to the streetcar. Far enough from Plaza NIMBYs (y...

Their home opener attendance this year was 38,775. Pretty close to sell out. I know it was a near sell out this years, but the Royals went 2-3 years prior to covid that were far from sell outs. A remarkable thing in MLB no matter how bad your team has been doing. Let alone at team that went to the ...

I can’t believe people are so stupid they assume the Royals are just “good to go” now. They just denied a pro-team with a lease expiring in 6 years. They think they’re safe now? People are so stupid. Sorry, I just can’t take it. Royals average attendance below Tampa Bay right now. Tampa Bay. The ci...

Just a reminder that Kansas only earned $7 million from sports betting for it's first full year. Sports betting tax revenue will not pay for a stadium alone in either state so we don't have to worry about Kansas being able to use that to build the Chiefs a $2 billion dome capable of hosting superbo...
