Will UMKC ever be a decent Div I hoops program?

:( I think having MU, KU, and K-State so close doesn't help it much. :(

Downtown views at night

Is there any way to find out what they were trying to spell on 1KCP. I'm asking because it was on the night AFTER MNF. Maybe it's for Thanksgiving??

Bannister Mall area revitalization

Everytime I go to Bannister Mall...there is less and less there. I, of course, would love redelopment for this area, but I fear that it will end up like the Blue Ridge Mall if there is no change soon. (The Blue Ridge Mall got so small, they blocked off most of the mall with walls). #-o

Broadway corridor designs

There are columns along a few bridges on U. S. 71 (Bruce R. Watkins Drive). They are just....columns. They are rather ugly in the day, but they light up at night...and they don't look so bad. (You know, like those 4 things on Bartle Hall). So, I hope these new columns light up...otherwise, what's th...

I think Kansas City won't be fully "up-to-date" until we get light rail. Like Denver and St. Louis.

What I don't understand is... why didn't the Chiefs (Carl Peterson, and maybe even Lamar Hunt) think that changes to the defense were not need last year??? ](*,) #-o

Holiday doings....

well there is debate if really 500,000 people are there but crowd overestimation is not limited to KC so I say we run with it. I agree. I have heard some rumors about the Thanksgiving Day Parade in NYC may draw a little as 500,000....but you always hear it's over 2 Million. So, I say, even if only ...

I know those pictures may not have come out the way you wanted them to, but I think the fogs "adds" a little something to the photos. I'm not sure what it is, but I like the way it makes the buildings and some of the bridges look. Of course, I'm bias. You've gotta love the ones with both 1...

The Chiefs didn't play as bad as I thought they would against New England, but they still lost. #-o They are not 3-7, and are out of the playoffs, which hurts. ](*,) But, not as much as losing a home Monday Night game, when we hadn't had MNF in this city for 4 years. ](*,) Don't get me wrong!

I have never to been to the ceremony either. I'm normally at a friends house on Thanksgiving. But, we have always watched it on TV. When the lights come on, you can hear the people cheer and the cars honk! There is no other KC event that brings over 500,000 people to one place, at one time. Half a m...

I have always thought of San Diego to be on the most "perfect cities" in the country... 1. Near mountians 2. Near the ocean 3. Near another country 4. Not so much on the earthquake fault-line. 5. Doesn't get too hot or too cold 6. Traffic not bad 7 Impressive downtown (or least way better ...
