KC misses out again. Arizona Coyotes going to Utah.

My dream site remains the Manual Tech/ATA site: there's an entertainment district already built, that we already subsidize. It's investment on the east side, the Negro Leagues history is there, it would bridge the Crossroads to East Side gap, there's room to include parking structures in the plan, ...

Alehouse shut down because it went for the quick cash and not the long play. They reformatted the music and tried to be a bottle service type nightclub opposed the original idea of a great sports and beer bar. They've had too many tavern disturbances, shootings and other forms of violence, includin...

My fantasy site was East Crossroads and it almost came true but like everyone here agrees, they fucked it up.

I still do have a strong feeling it could happen because KCMO is going to help pay for it.

There’s a lot of things happening and most of it’s conflicting. No idea at this point that the Royals are thinking. I’m not sure what the comment about them getting “bad advice” is about because they really led the charge on the plan, messaging and were adamant about being in the April ballot. I thi...

You clearly haven't been on that street after 10pm on a Friday or Saturday when it was open? If you did, you'd remember the street car racing and donut-polooza.

Ecstatic they did this! There’s hope.

The Royals draw just fie when they are respectable. Not losing 90+ games. We stay on the pace we have set so far this season you will have near sellouts on the weekends by June. Biggest problem is over the last 30 years we are either in the playoffs or losing 90+ games, with a lot more of the latte...

Grid from the top rope knocking chiefs fans, royals fans and people that wear sports gear at airports all in one post! :lol: Grid from the top rope knocking chiefs fans, royals fans and people that wear sports gear at airports all in one post!

I didn't make or get that joke but guessing it was as much about just being inept and not being able to get desantis very far even in a race full of weak opponents? Well, I won’t go down the political rabbit hole here but hate him or love him, Trump certainly doesn’t fit the label of a “weak oppone...

But also build more parking. 1 parking spot per seat to make the KC residents happy.

Makes sense considering he somewhat recently moved to Three Light

Yep.

They should hire a political advisor that’s worked with a famous democrat so they don’t instantly become a target like what happened last time. “Oh they hired a guy who worked for Desantis, he must be evil I don’t like it blah blah”.

Be cool if they made a way to make like a Sunday day baseball game watch party a more organized event. I've done it a couple times just to be in a 3rd place and be outside with baseball game on but it's never very active. They've done those before, even with the Royals involved bringing down Slugge...

enormous crowd for a seemingly unorganized event at the live district for the womens title game today. was awesome walking by during the tipoff and hearing roars erupt when something happened. not at the level of like a road playoff chiefs game obviously but didn't seem way off from some of those i...

Forget the voters. The Royals and local governments have to find a way to pull off a downtown stadium without a vote of the people. The Chiefs on the other hand can go to the voters without the tag along Royals and likely get approval for Arrowhead improvements. I was trying to find my comment from...

So was THIS the "new location" for stadium that DCole was referring to??? EXCLUSIVE: East Crossroads site pitched as a prospect for downtown Royals stadium https://www.bizjournals.com/kansascity/news/2022/08/11/kc-royals-downtown-baseball-east-crossroads-star.html Ding Ding! It’s crazy we...

Sly was a good Mayor and I'm not a fan of Democrats. He wasn't a great fit for this campaign.

Funkhousers name should be stricken from the record!

Goes to show how bad the campaign was. Why not say: We expect this tax to generate 500m. We will look to the city for 350m. We will look to the state for 350m. And we, the royals will put over 500m into the project. Obviously using clay county info there but same applies to KC. Share info like the ...
