McDowell: Why The Chiefs Pursuit to Renovate Arrowhead Has Hit A Snag
We've been talking about this for a few weeks over in the Royals thread. It's been interesting to see how quiet the Chiefs have been while the Royals negotiate for a new stadium, and in the last couple weeks there's more and more smoke that the Chiefs and Royals staying in Jackson County is not a sure thing. Sam McDowell finally wrote about it. It's a very long column so I just picked some highlights. It's a good breakdown of the situation. It sounds like Kansas hasn't made any serious offers but they're the obvious alternative if Jackson County decides to punt, and it sounds like the Royals and Chiefs want answers soon.

It'll look a lot better once Stevieray climbs his old ass up there and paints a mural on it...

I'm concerned that Mahomes would blast a spiral into the roof and cause a cave in.

Look at this. It's another example of what the Super Bowl would have looked like IF the Rolling Roof was built. The roof would look much much more up to date than Chernobyl's haha. Another option could be a modified version of what the Marlin's stadium idea. So basically like the original rolling roof BUT it only covers the top and not the entire stadium. I think for me I HATE full enclosed stadiums. Something about Football being played outdoors is just so much better and even if they went with a more traditional dome that could open its just not the same! So to have an option that simply covers the top to help with rain/snow but still have a feeling of "outdoors" should be the goal! |

Well it worked out. Wonder how much watching Mahomes do his thing last night helped turn the tide on this.

Will they be required to announce the location of the new Royals stadium before the vote?
If someone would offer to put Frank White under it, I'm sure it'd pass. |

So are we all still supposed to hate Kansas for some unknown reason?

From other thread I posted:
KS state rep Sean Tarwater was on 810 there. MO sounds in deep deep shit if they wanna keep the Chiefs. STAR bonds bill being drafted up today or tomorrow which Chiefs are full onboard with. They'll 100% build them a dome too. Chiefs want a hotel, amphitheater etc. Tarwater mocked MO and Jackson County and said they will try to organize themselves with a rebuttal but aren't on the same page at all and Frank White will hurt them. scoopeandscoreks.com just went live too |

If you tell me Arrowhead is disappearing… dome, no dome, who cares.
But if it’s between Arrowhead and anything domed, then the former. I don’t hate domes. I just hate losing Arrowhead. And if we do, go as commercial as possible. |
