Well that is the most appropriate ad partner for the Royals I can think of.

QT logo on the official jersey? Are you ****ing serious?

Hard pass.

I saw a reddit post last night where you can purchase some insanely expensive Red Sox jersey for like $430 and it's an extra $20 if you want their advertising patch included. LMAO :facepalm:

Couldn't even get a corp sponsor that uses a color scheme somewhere near what the Royals use huh?

I'm suprised they don't make you pay more to remove it.

There is not remotely the same as the argument of I'm not a fan of public money for private profit or funding a billionaire's stadium, it seems a lot of people are fine funding a billionaires stadium if they have parking spots and it's in a suburb.

When you propose a 2 billion dollar project and announce it to the folks who you expect to fund it. That proposal makes no mention of parking for 20 to 40 thousand folks on any given day well that sounds like just another un accounted for expense. Parking is premium Downtown and the tennents already surrounding that area may pay in leases for a certain amount of parking for their business. So yeah parking is important and needs to be part of this plan. I would soon they found a way to pay for this on their own but I am not stupid as they will get their way or walk from the area.

LMAO Sherman is a whole clown

Seems pretty obvious that Shermans plan is to flip the team into making himself a big chunk of money.

With that stadium he can probably double what he spent for them.

I don't think so. He purchased the team for nostalgia. Him and his wife had their first date at a Royals game.

A little over a month til the vote & theres still no rendering from the Chiefs. MODOT still hasn't approved the cap for that side of the highway either.

It would be pretty stupid to vote for this as it's rushed and not clearly planned out.

I just don’t like giving losers anything nice. Wish we could move the royals to the tbones stadium until they have 3 consecutive seasons over .500

I would never live in Jackson county though so my opinion doesn’t matter

This ****ing team, man....

Idk if it’s worse, but the OKC Thunder have a giant “Love’s” patch on their jersey.

Tbf though Love’s are pretty nice as far as truck stops go.
