This is probably the way.

I honestly can't believe how poor this roll out is.

They basically just want this hand out and do not want to give a lot of details...the ones they give are abstract and non binding and then they are like...hey just trust us we will figure out the details later.

****ing stupid.

Yeah, I didn't think there was anyway this didn't pass, but it's starting to feel that way. If it doesn't pass, then they have time to stop being so secretive and sketchy and give this another shot. A quick Google search says it takes 1.5-3 years to build a stadium. That's plenty of time.

Yeah, John Sherman seems to be a real ****ing dipshit about this whole thing. Really seems like he doesn't have a clue what he is doing.

He knows he has legit leverage with Nashville waiting in the wings.

Except they aren't moving to Nashville and that's not what this vote is about. Howcome you have such a hard time processing information? I've seen several of your posts in here and in DC.

It's a grift, the amount of money he wants is about the same as the value of the Royals.

Dude wants the stadium to sell the Royals and double his worth.

I would assume chiefs football fans can pass it, royals, not so much.

You seriously don’t think relocating out of KC would be considered if this vote doesn’t pass?

Are you naive or just plain stupid?

I’ve seen several of your Reeruned posts here and in DC… so that probably answers the question.

If the Royals were going to move to Nashville they would have done so already

That would be years down the line, I'd think the could come up with a better plan in 7 years..

Also posting in that DC thread that the ship crash was a terrorist attack pretty much disqualifies calling anyone a moron ever again.

Nashville is also in the process of paying for a new stadium for the Titans, they gonna just go ahead and ok another one at the same time?

Odds point to no.

Keep believing that as you vote no.

You and Reeruns of your ilk such as the illiterate hack Frank White will look rather stupid when the Royals end up in Nashville, Portland, Salt Lake City, etc.

Are you aware there are at least five cities actively trying to lure an MLB franchise?

****ing stupid.

If they'd just firmly stuck with the East Village site from the get-go and announced this thing six months ago; there wouldn't be a fight about this. It wouldn't be a hot topic.

Only the Royals could fumble a bag this hard, and they still might get their votes. But it's just because Jackson county voters will slap a 'yes' vote on anything they perceive makes them a 'big time city' - not because they earned those votes in an honest effort.

Quite a few folks just couldn't give a shit to be frank. If they want to go, let them.

KC hasn't had major league caliber baseball since 2015....do you really think that anyone would be that upset if the Royals moved?
