Re: GO ROYALS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Overpaid by a little. Remember, we are the Royals. Until we can turn in a playoff team a couple years in a row we are going to have to overpay to some extent. I like Francoeur and think he has turned in a pretty good season thus far. Our outfield is leading the league in assists. Gordon with 19 and ...

Re: When is Jack in the Box opening in Overland Park?

I drove past there a week or so ago and it looked very close to being completed. I wouldn't be surprised if they open in the next 2 months. They are currently seeking approval for an Olathe location and I believe that one is going to be opened in the summer of next year as long as there are no snags.

Re: 2011 Chiefs

I am pretty excited about that signing. He is a very good receiver. My only concern is he is not a pure speed guy and that is what we are lacking, a consistent speedster.

Re: AWD Car in KC winter weather

I've heard such mixed reviews of Audi's so it's nice to get some direct owner experiences shared here. I always loved the a4 quattros, but I still remain extremely cautious of their reliability.  I've had 3 friends who I trust tell me never to buy an Audi.  They've had a lot of electrical and mecha...

Re: AWD Car in KC winter weather

Yeah, seems to me everyone I ask always mention Subarus and Audis for AWD and nothing else.  KansasCityCraka, I have seen that video and it always makes me lean towards the Subaru. Unfortunately, the Japanese Earthquake and Tsunami has delayed the new model Legacy and the brand new 36 MPG Impreza b...

Re: Oakland's new stadium plan for 2 NFL teams

This will just be leverage for the 49'ers to get a deal done faster with Santa Clara. I can not see them sharing a stadium.

Re: AWD Car in KC winter weather

I have driven both Subaru's and Audi's/VW's a lot. If you are not looking for luxury and just something comfortable and more affordable go with Subaru. Subaru's are the only AWD cars that can convert enough power to a single wheel to keep the car moving. It is a 3 year old video but nothing has chan...

Re: Overland Park could raise property taxes 46%

So what is the property tax now in Johnson County for a $200,000 house.  Here in Houston, where there is no state tax, I pay $12,000 per year for a $285,000  which really seems excessive....I'd like to compare.    I talked to my parents about it tonight on the phone and they said theirs was approxi...

Crow for closer? I hope so. So sick of Soria. I wonder if he has any value left in the trade market.

Re: Livestrong Sporting Park

IMO, it really doesn't matter what happens in his personal life. The stadium is named Livestrong Sporting Park, not Lance Armstrong Park. His charity does great things and I doubt anyone within the organization would even consider a different charity until the current agreement is over.

Re: Osama bin Laden is dead

Reports are that we tried to capture bin Laden so we could bring him back to the US. I do not believe the initial plans were to kill him but to have him surrender. He refused and a firefight ensued which wound up leaving him dead. Saddam Hussein in the face of our troops and little support surrender...

Re: GO ROYALS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Duffy and Montgomery are both dominating so far for Omaha but I doubt the Royals really want to bring either of them up right now. I don't expect them to even consider them coming up until very late in the summer. Luckily this is his last season under contract. If we even consider signing him to eve...

Re: 2011 Chiefs

The reason Justin Houston fell so far was due to him apparently testing positive for marijuana at the combine. He has a tremendous amount of talent and I am really excited to have him. You would hope he would be a bit smarter than to do drugs right before the biggest day of his life before the draft...

Re: 2011 Chiefs

He looked terrible in the Mizzou - Iowa bowl game.  Iowa won on a freak play but no thanks to Stanzi.  Yes he didn't look great in the bowl game but he is a very good QB and could turn into a great QB after sitting for a couple years. He needs to build some more upper body strength. We have the lux...

Re: 2011 Kansas City Command

As of right now they are averaging around 4,800 a game. I really wouldn't be surprised if they don't even make it past this season. And if they do, there is no way they can stay at the sprint center.

I do agree it is a bit expensive. The only time I will go is for lunch since they have the $9 burger/side deal. Its $3-5 off depending upon what burger you choose. I am not a big alcohol drinker so I can keep it relatively cheap and just have a fountain soda or just water and get out of there for a ...
