On 810 today they stated the Chiefs would have a 6/1/2025 deadline to accept the Kansas deal.

Wonder if the new Kansas stadium will get a World Cup semi finals once its built?

If the spot they are thinking is the Legends, it will never get any big events because it is too far from most of the hotel rooms in the region and there is no public transportation.

Like the mother****ers have any leverage to impose a deadline on the Kansas City Chiefs while they are right in the middle of finishing up the install of all the World Cup 2026 changes at Arrowhead.

I don't know, that's just what they said. Could be some mechanism of the STAR bonds legislation rather than some arbitrary deadline. It's gonna take a while to build the thing anyways so the Chiefs can't just wait around forever.

Are you under the impression that it's hard for multi billion dollar corporations to focus on multiple priorities at once?

Tell me more about the public transportation to the TSC

There also haven't been major events. Kemper was the last place that a final four was held. And that was way before what it takes to host one now.

I guess the World Series isn’t a major event…that I rented a car and drove to

It seemed like the ultimate appeal to authority when in reality it just looks like they were winging it

This tied at the hip arrangement for the two teams is kind of unique and I don't believe either team or either league wants that kind of deal anymore. Goal 1 was to get rid of the TSC bond and it would have worked pass or fail.

Since the vote failed it gives the teams and leagues even more leverage and a chance to shop around until they land the sweetheart deal.

From a business view, I don't think the Royals want to be here and it only benefits them when the vote failed.

Rashee Rice will be close to the Kansas Speedway, so that’s good

The Royals are an ownership group made up of mostly Kansas City natives and big names. I really find it hard to believe they want anything else to but to be downtown if they can swing it. It seems like it'd be in their best interest all the way around given their business interests.

While the Royals have waffled around, the Chiefs have been pretty clear about their intentions. They flat said Arrowhead was not worth renovating beyond what they just proposed in the vote, and people said no. Now Clark has been pretty clear they need to look at other options, and that it takes several years to build a new stadium so they need to figure out their next step in the next year to year and a half. It makes sense because if they sort this out by next summer it gives them 4-5 years to build something new.

A baseball franchise outside of Kansas City would likely earn more money than one inside.

Once you're at the level of wealth where you're "allowed" to buy an ownership stake in a baseball franchise: loyalty accounts for piss all.

The Royals are the team that said they want a new stadium. The plain fact that these dumbass Kansas politicians lead off all of these attention seeking plans with Chiefs and all the released drawings are football stadiums show you that they are just blowing smoke up folks asses.

Chiefs said they want to stay at Arrowhead. Royals say they want a new stadium. Chiefs are locked into Arrowhead through January 2031 and are hosting World Cup 2026 games at Arrowhead.

Chiefs Super Bowl LVII rings say Arrowhead is Lamar Hunt's favorite place on Earth.

Every time there is one of the dumbass news stories about a new dumbass Kansas Politician talking about Chiefs moving to Kansas, you can think about how the Kansas City Sports Commission folks responsible for the World Cup will tell those Kansas politicians to give Sporting Kansas City and KU as much money as they need to be able to host some country's national team. And the only contact from Clark Hunt and the Chiefs with Kansas politicians will be to let them know that Kansas better give the World Cup people everything they ask for to make this area a successful host site.

Ok
