The star is on a weird build the retractable stadium kick.
Considering the wide area we draw from I always thought a roof was essential. If I'm in Salina KS and I want to take the family to a game I'm going to be more likely to if I can be assured it's not a rainout. Heat is becoming an issue but an open-air stadium with a roof for sun and rain would be fine.
Lol. WHAT?!?!?FangKC wrote: ↑Wed May 31, 2023 2:11 am I've seen several articles indicating that if we don't get off fossil fuels very quickly, Kansas City will be like Phoenix in 50 years.

Their current deal pays out between $48 million and $52 million a year. MLB is likely to take the rights in house, which will be great for blackouts. But they aren't going to pay more than current market value. Which is likely going to be significantly lower than the current budgeted amount.
In the grand scheme of things, likely won't mean a ton for this project. And long term this is probably a good thing for the league. But the team is bracing for lower budgets and potential cash infusions in the short term.

https://frontofficesports.com/mlbs-rob ... kruptcy/MLB lawyers are seeking all its clubs with DSG contracts to be paid in full. Judge Chris Lopez had previously ordered DSG to make partial payments to Texas Rangers, Arizona Diamondbacks, Cleveland Guardians and Minnesota Twins that MLB claimed the RSN were being held “captive.”
Minus the clubs being made whole, MLB has requested Lopez release the team from their DSG contracts.
Lopez is expected to make a ruling at the conclusion of the hearing, which is expected to continue into Thursday.

It was about building the sliding roof over TSC. Like instead of going downtown, finish the original vision. It's as dumb as it sounds.
No. Adding more air conditioning to this world only exuberates global warming. You're literally introducing MORE heat to the world with air conditioning.FangKC wrote: ↑Wed May 31, 2023 9:29 pm

Will people sit outside if it's still in the 90s after 8 pm? I doubt it. I've lived in a desert city and people don't go outside when it's still in the 90s in the evening.
And I wouldn't put much credence in the articles. Most of those articles were written by journalists who have very little idea of what they are talking about or how modeling works. I have been involved in a lot of scientific modeling over my career. While it wasn't climate modeling, the probability functions all work about the same. When I put the P99 or P1 estimates for a given input into the model, I know these were values that we were unlikely to ever achieve but theoretically still within the realm of possibility (and the output on the high end will be based on many of the higher more unlikely inputs). And in the modeling I did, we had a host of empirical evidence that suggested we knew much about the relationship between what we were modeling and the input data, much more of a handle on the primary relationships than climate scientist have to work with.Imarealperson wrote: ↑Thu Jun 01, 2023 4:10 pmBuilding an indoor Air conditioned stadium based on what the weather may or may not be in 30 years seems…um…not like the best idea.FangKC wrote: ↑Wed May 31, 2023 9:29 pmDon't you read?

Also, that said heat index, not temperature. Do you read? Or just browse headlines? Posting multiple news stories of the same study is pretty thorough work. Jesus Christ. Try again.
