I think the new ballpark should befit what the Royals have become. Design it to look like a toilet bowl.

As volatile as the construction/material market has been the past few years, with no end in sight, they (Royals and Chiefs) are going to make the "bond" language as generic as possible so that they aren't obligated to any "feature piece" that could cause the project to end up in the red because of inflation come the time of construction.
This is no different than any project that has required a vote the past few years, except for the fact it's a high-profile project! I am part of projects that require a vote that don't even disclose a specific location within the question, but identify a need [ie. schools, hospitals, etc]. and these pass all of the time. If this one passes, expect maybe 33% of what is shown in the renderings to actually be built. They are only obligated to provide what is stated in the question that is to-be voted on. Edit: I am NOT working on either of the projects nor have anything to do with them. And Tyler Bray. Last edited by Mr_Tomahawk; 03-27-2024 at 02:13 PM.. |

Um. Eat my ass. My family has been in KC since it's founding for Christ's sake. The question still stands, how much money and civic recognition do these business bring to the city and region? I'd like some numbers, but assume it is substantial. Anyway, I love all the associate degree libertarians that come out of the woodwork for a ****ing extension of a 15 year old 5/8th a cent tax. |

The KC situation reminds me a bit of the SD situation.
Whack ass Padres that have never won shit ever got a bitchin' new stadium in the heart of downtown San Diego, Chargers got the middle finger. |

Padres stayed loyal to San Diego.

As for the ass eating well keep those proclivities to yourself. I have high confidence your desires can be filled by a step outside in the NYC streets. |

I'd because yes vote, but the lack of transparency from Sherman is extremely annoying. The guy has had this planned from the moment he bought the team almost 5 years ago, but he still is being vague as hell about everything and it seems like he has no idea where he wants to actually put the thing.
