Just imagine the Chiefs meeting directly after the Royals/Chiefs meeting where Clark Hunt realized what kind of an idiot he was paired with. He comes off as such a scripted dork most of the time, but I'd bet he had some entertaining comments.

I find that a person who purchased the team a couple years ago is already wanting a new stadium and for all intents and purposes threatening to move the team, or at least his wife running her mouth, and it comes across as very Major Leagueish and I don't think you're going to win many fans that way, but that likely wasn't ever the case and this was the intention you wanted from the get go. Doesn't matter where the team is in your mind, as long as you can make the most money off it, you'll Baltimore Ravens a great franchise so you get what you want. It's a problem when rich people buy things you care about, they can tear it apart right in front of you just as easily.
If the Chiefs separate themselves from the Royals and ask for money for renovations, even if they were the same lazy plans, it'd probably pass. Tying themselves to John Sherman is not a good strategy or look. |

Sherman has better plans than Clark and was going to put up like 3x the money Clark did

It's still under $100/year for a Jackson County resident and in most cases well under that amount. Anyone who is against it just needs to stop using the amount of money being asked for as an excuse for voting "no."

Sure, it lacked details and some assurances (at least from what I have read.) Voting "no" because you didn't like the proposal or had issues with the location of the downtown ballpark is fine. Mentioning the money as a reason to vote "no" is just lazy.

$2B in taxpayer money is not inconsequential by any measure. Especially considering us taxpayers would have had zero input on how any of that amount was to be spent.

I'm sorry, I wasn't aware you were going to have to write a personal check for 2 billion dollars. How much say do you have on where your other tax dollars are being spent? Do you help set any of the county's budgets?
