Re: BURY THE HATCHET!

Max line from 18th and Grand to Paseo, south to 31st street out to the old Rock Island line, on the Rock Island with stops at the Stadium, Downtown Raytown and on out to 3rd street in Lee's Summit with a turn around in Downtown Lee's summt.

OK maybe a little much, but at least out to Raytown.

Correct, but July was still the last winning month on record.

Re: GO ROYALS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i guess it feels like 2003 felt for us. quit acting like it has been a century since we had a good team to root for. we had a team that spent 5 months in first place in 2003. 2003 was a quirky start that carried us to July. Which, incidentally, was the last calender month that we have played above ...

Re: One really good reason voters should've rejected the stadium tax

Do I need to spell it out... The city manager FIRED THE AVIATION DIRECTOR A FEW YEARS AGO. That doesn't sound like something operating independently from the city. Are you arguing with the fact that the aviation department is under the jurisdiction of the city? There is a KCMo city seal on the fuck...

Re: One really good reason voters should've rejected the stadium tax

The airport was built by the city and is governed by the city. It is part of the city infrastructure no matter how revenue is directed. If the shit hits the fan...it is KCMO's responsibility. Why else would Cauthan be so involved in everything going on up there? For his own personal pleasure? It's ...

Re: One really good reason voters should've rejected the stadium tax

I see what you're saying, but baby steps. Because Jack Co and KCMo have exclusively paid for metro attractions for soooo long, 99.9% of the attractions are located in those districts. It would be political suicide the force the issue without at least one prominant tax burden having its home on the ...

What do you think has spurred this increase in violent crime?
