Watering any product down always gives it more mass appeal.

Bad look Clark!

...Renovated locker rooms?! Really!? That's nothing. Get it done! No wonder Andy was making those comments about he Raiders brand new facilities and we got a report TODAY that Chiefs are looking into renovations just one day after this report card came out. Good! Glad you're listening!

None of that renovation involves the practice facility.

There must not be any room to set all the Lombardi's

Any of the players denied this?

The facilities would be nicer if the employees picked up their ****ing candy wrappers.

You probably should be upgrading your facility to at least be on par with the majority of the league.

Players are also going to look out for themselves in some circumstances, like feeling like they are pushed to return from injury quickly, some guys don't like that. That however isn't anything to be overly worked up about.

Do we actually know what Clark told him? Did he actually say, I'm going to make sure the practice facility is updated by the start of next season? Is it possible there is a grander plan for new facilities once the Royals are gone?

For example, we regularly hear players rave about how great our training staff is - Rick Burkholder in particular - and we regularly have guys come back from injury more quickly than expected. But then they get an F on this report? It doesn't pass the sniff test unless all those players are just outright lying.

O.city beat me to it but I’d bet that has something to do with it.

Someone posted an interview of Orlando Brown Jr her recently. It seemed like a pretty recent interview after he had signed with the Bengals. He made a comment in the clip about how the organization “expects you to play through injury”. He didn’t say it in an obviously negative way and I can’t remember the full context but.. could have something to do with it.

I’m sure this is untrue. It doesn’t jive with any of my experience in the real world. Leadership, facilities, and amenities are pretty important aspects of keeping you employees happy.

I'd be more comfortable breaking a plus-sized influencer’s leg at that place than the Chiefs outdated facility.

Fixed that for ya

F for Fantastic, maybe.

Royals are not gone until 2026 (if they get the stadium vote) to go their way. Chiefs have always said they dont want to alter Arrowhead and take away some of its uniqueness. That stadium was built in 1972 so renovations will be difficult and expensive, but I would bet the contracts will not be issued until after the vote, its a lot of money that will be funneled into the local economy via construction jobs so that hanging on the vote is a "incentive" to vote

Pretty sure Clark is about to pay Veach a lot of money.

Also sounds like Clark is planning to fix the practice facility. It was talked about before per the players and he confirmed today that it will be a priority

So does winning... If Tyreek was given truth serum he would have never left... despite the shiny marbles in Miami...

Anyone have any guesses (or better yet, hard numbers) on how much more a franchise can expect to earn relative to postseason success?

I’m assuming the home playoff team earns the lion’s share of ticket sales? Do they receive a greater portion from TV deals as well? And what percentage goes to the visiting team? What about Super Bowls? I’m assuming teams can expect a surge in merch but I’d assume there would be some sort of cash infusion..?
