On the other hand it makes me have to watch baseball, which is a pretty awful sport. |

The old people who vote are probably Cardinals fans. The future would probably be a soccer stadium. Sadly, do not care

They are miles behind the times when it comes to making their product accessible and an optimal viewing experience for the fan. I've long maintained that baseball would be an ideal sport to launch a Redzone style channel. 15 games a night 3 times a week. Jump around between situations where runners are in scoring position, when big names like Ohtani or Stanton come up to bat, when a pitcher is on the verge of striking out the side. Right now, you couldn't pay me to watch a non Cardinals game start to finish, but something like that I would definitely check out and would likely drastically increase my interest in the league as a hole. Why isn't MLB thinking forward and implementing shit like that? Frustrates me to no end to see the sport dying and the owners seemingly being content to just let it happen. Edit: Apparently something like this already sort of exists on MLBTV. That's cool. Why haven't I heard of it though? Why do I have to open an app to watch it, instead of it being on YouTube TV next to MLB Network? I just don't get the way they're promoting the game at the moment. |

Government will piss tax money away on something worst. Hell we are all posting on this board because of government paying for a stadium.

I overlaid, to scale, every downtown stadium in baseball on that proposed footprint to keep Oak St. open and none of them fit.
None of them. Not even Oriole Park, which is basically built to avoid Camden Yards the same way this stadium would be built to avoid Oak St. What that tells me is that the Royals are willing to say whatever it takes to get this vote to pass, and they'll let the architecture firm figure it out later. What it also says is that the renderings you think you're voting on are not anywhere close to what will actually be built. |
