KCRag Forum

I made an account almost for the sole purpose of the forum keeping track of what I had already read for me.

The wife and I have enjoyed the Little Blue Trace Trail quite a bit. It's very conveniently located for us and long enough we can choose different sections to shake things up a little bit.

The KC Curling Club has announced plans to have a dedicated curling facility open by September. New facility will be in Blue Springs, just off the Woods Chapel Rd exit. They have been playing at the Line Creek Ice Arena up north for several years. https://kccurling.com/dedicated-ice https://kccurlin...

I have normal level xfinity internet, and have not experienced any real problems with YoutubeTV in the year I have had it. I did previously have problems with stuttering when I would Cast from say the FoxSports app, or NBC app to my Google ChromeCast but those have seemingly disappeared as well.

Yes. 2 trains a day would be great but I dont think it would look like SW chief. It would be more like the River Runner

I still think that's definitely preferable over driving or plane.

Some friends and I took the Southwest Chief to Chicago a few weeks ago for a conference. We are all semi-frequent users of the River Runner, but had never used the Chicago service yet. I have to say, we all agreed afterwards that it was by far the most enjoyable way to get to Chicago. None of the st...

When is MLS going to put a team in Denver?

The Rapids are a charter member of MLS, unless I'm just totally missing sarcasm.

I recently heard something along the lines of "economic impact on host cities is in the billions". Is this true? Probably for all host cities in aggregate. Certainly not for a single host city. It isn't a local team (unless the USA draws your city), so you could potentially have 40 to 60k or more p...

Mo/Ks border war mentioned on John Oliver. KC segment starts around minute 12.

29 for appearance. 30 for wins.

Is the plan to stick with three car length trains or go longer? Or is that further down the road?

Not for long! Bye Kansas!

Iowa State, surprisingly, always seems to be the team that really packs them in.

What is Chastain's plan this time, other than the taxes mentioned?

The concept appears raised above ground level with no ramps.

League Average attendance is just under 6k a game http://theahl.com/ahl-teams-establish-all-time-attendance-record http://www.hockeydb.com/nhl-attendance/att_graph_season.php?lid=AHL1941&sid=2016 I get that, I'm just saying it's reasonable to think they would play in Sprint Center, not that they'd ...

7 of the 30 AHL teams currently play in arenas with a capacity of 15,000 or more. So, Sprint Center is a reasonable location.

I took the Mavericks statement as meaning they would not be the AHL team. Not that there wouldn't be an AHL team, it would just be a different team than the Mavericks.

if you have ever taken amtrak out of chicago to st. louis, you will notice how MANY college kids disembark at bloomington-normal for illinois state. i think half of the university rides amtrak! granted, there's a station right on top of campus. The trade-off would be bypassing Sedalia and Warrensbu...

I go to school at UCM in Warrensburg and campus is full of foreign born Indian students. Don't know why, but there's seemed to be a real boom the last few years.

Yes.
