Re: Chiefs Game on CBS

Actually this wasn't a nationally televised game so the only people seeing the blimp shots were KC and NYC viewers. Of the Chiefs' six nationally televised games this year, only one is at Arrowhead. Is that bullshit or what. I was thinking the same thing... ...and I doubt that anyone from NYC would...

Re: KC Gas Prices Soar

I gassed up the night before Katrina hit and paid $2.59 a gallon.  I still have half a tank left, so hopefully I will make it through the worst of the price bubble.  I've seen a couple of places in the last week that have $2.87 a gallon gas. Anyone think I can make it a whole month on one tank of ga...

Re: OFFICIAL - Hotel President construction

The hotel President is still sans Drum Room sign.  I can't wait until Baltimore opens up again because I drive by there every night on my way home.

Re: 3 Arenas

Omaha couldn't support a pro franchise in any sport.  At least not a competitive one. I'm about as big an Omaha booster as there is out there, but the numbers just aren't there.  Besides, much of the sports entertainment economy in Nebraska revolves around the Husker football team, a quasi-professio...

Re: 3 Arenas

Okay, I've been a lurker on this board for a while now and this thread finally inspired me to register.  I don't know why, because the current discussion is worthless.  I just wanted to point a couple of things out. 1).  MLS is *not* the first premier outdoor professional league in the US.  The ...
