Royals I'm going to assume this is a repost... - Page 3

but I was taking a sh*t and was reading the new ESPN the Magazine...and the Player X column totally bashed Kansas City...saying players are bummed about the All-Star game being in Kansas City since the stadium sucks and there is nothing to do in Kansas City...

I was pretty irritated when I read that...

**** you, Player X...

I like Kansas City a hell of a lot more than Chicago...that's for sure...

I am all about Kansas City...I think it is a good place to live and work.

It is just kind of a shame that the area immediately surrounding the stadiums is a shit hole.

Exactly.

Love our stadiums...walking to my car from a recent Royals game I looked up at Arrowhead in awe. Can't wait for Sundays to come back.

Must be a pretty tough life to have to worry about crap like that. Whoever it is must be pretty sure they will be going to the game that year.

What an ignorant piece of shit. I live in Austin now (a very popular destination at the moment), and have lived all over.. including places as cosmopolitan as Barcelona, Spain... and KC has MORE than enough to offer in a 2-3 day span... it's a shame that ESPN gives a soapbox to worthless prima donnas like this. **** him and may he die falling on fire from an aids tree while choking on antifreeze.

Sucks that people like that exist to waste good oxygen.

Bingo.

That's the problem. There isn't anything that is glamourus around the stadium. It has so much promise in the area. A very classy hotel like a Hilton or a Merriott would deftinaly improve the area, and the fans wouldn't have to commute too far from the hotel to the stadium.

Wouldn't hurt to have some kind of a version of a P&L as well in the area, or a Village East type (like the Village West in KCK). That would generate some economic (assuming) into the area and as well to the city (if the city councilmen-women/mayor or county people aren't mis-managing the money to begin with anyways).

Or a very classy casino. Whatever it is, something needs to be done in the area, becuase, as you said, and rightfully so, the areas immediately surrounding the stadiums is a shit hole.

Here's an idea, Player X, if players are so "pissed" about it then they can forfeit their nomination to the game. I'm sure there are plenty of players who would be just peachy about playing in an All-Star game, in KC or otherwise.

Know what? There's a highway you can even see from the stadium that takes you straight to downtown in about 10 minutes.
