Bears announcement mentioned an opening roof is hundreds of millions more as the reason they won’t have one

The KS proposal is for a STAR that covers the stadiums and nothing else. At least that’s my take having watched the discussions live. Not sure how the development alone would generate enough to pay for itself. If so maybe it's a possibility? Wish they would do the development at the sports complex....

Parson at Canadian Pacific KC today saying Missouri will compete to keep both stadiums. Said they are big economic engines My concern here is that Missouri will go all out to keep the Chiefs as it is the only professional football team in Missouri to the point that there effort to help the Royals s...

A stadium like the Manica design would give the Hunts of Dallas status down there and equality with Jerry World. With the fixed roof, well the NFL owes the Hunt legacy a Superbowl. Will the state of Kansas stipulate a name change to the Kansas Chiefs or the Kansas City KS Chiefs? The Kansas Dome? I...

With Clark Hunt saying he talked to John Sherman and the two teams are going their separate ways on stadium efforts, and the fact Hunt said a new stadium (open air or domed) is being considered, it'll be interesting to see what happens. He remains open to Kansas as an option. Things are still early...

Its moving forward - Phase 1 was to build the surcharge pad - due to the crappy soil. Surcharge wont be completed until September... Phase 2 which is some parking lots should begin shortly and Phase 3 the actual Amphitheater won't start until Mid September. Live Nation being sued by the DOJ may but...

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

They did fight but lost the battle

You want this in a place it can be used as a convention asset

why would KC drop out of 2031? We would regress as a host city for women's WC & women's soccer in general by 2031? Obviously some advantages for 2027 with men's WC having been hosted the year before. But I would think focusing on 2031 would allow the US to better prepare their bid. Just curious...

US dropped its bid for women’s WC 2026 and will shift to 2031 but instead. Pretty likely KC drops out of the running now

Search is improved and can index 3 letters. It works!

Well done Jackson County, well done. You even fucked over Worlds of Fun because you showed how weak and easy you are to just pilfer from. WoF is in Clay County and the Mattel Park in KCK will be tiny compared to it. How many privately owned amusement parks are built with tax money? I can only think...

NK adding both DTW & DFW in July.
- DTW 3x weekly
- DFW 4x weekly

UMB’s acquisition of a Denver regional bank will propel the new firm to top 50 largest US banks. In terms of bank assets right above John Deere and BNP Paribas. Slightly behind CIBC, Western Bank, and Raymond James.

I just looked up attendance out of curiosity. Cardinals rank 6th in MLB with average of 37k. Royals are averaging 15k per game and rank 28th in the MLB for attendance. https://www.espn.com/mlb/attendance I said in person attendance. They’ve had alot of pretty empty days, not that we don’t either. Y...
