I’ve seen several people on X use comicon as a reason to not have a downtown stadium. Common complaints: traffic, parking and people. HA! You can be opposed to the Crossroads stadium because of the businesses located there, but the moment you complain about parking, get outta here with that nonsense...

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium

For the record, Cockson’s nickname is mild compared to others I’ve assigned business owners and politicians here. It’s meant to be a fun play on her last name while aligning with recent actions.

Re: 2023 KCMO Election

KMBC’s Kris Ketz posted on X that sources are telling him that Platt removed himself from the list of candidates for Austin City Manager. City Council will work on a contract extension. Great news. Would’ve been horrible to see him leave considering he’s probably the only person in City Hall pushing...

Re: West Plaza Flats

There has to be a crazy story behind this project. Sitting stagnant for months on end. I've heard quite a few squatters have broken in and are living there. The floor plans are so crazy I have no idea how anyone salvages this thing. It has to be worth far less than the bank note on it. The Doug Pri...
