Chiefs Chiefs have to play all games on the road? - Page 5

According to Keitzman the steal workers are going on strike and if the construction isn't done the Chiefs will have to play all there games on the road next season. Keitzman is full of shit.

You know.... this is the perfect opportunity for True Fans™ to show their real commitment to the team. They should all donate their free time to helping with the construction.... Pull together! We can do this!

There are all kinds of issues if this is true.

The Bears played in Champagne, IL while the spaceship landed in Soldier Field.

I think Champagne from Chicago is a further drive than what KC to CoMo is.

Parking and space period would be a ****ing nightmare if they played in CoMo.

The season ticket base would NEVER go to Norman, and Lincoln isn't exactly convenient either. Faurot Field can hold more than KU's stadium, and you could expand it with temporary seating behind each endzone (field level), and above the Hill. You could easily get it into the mid 70s if you had to. No, it's not Arrowhead, but it's the best local option there is.

As for the union situation, either they do right by the Kansas City area, or the area should turn against them in every way possible. This is nothing but a stick up by Labor. Work for the money that was in the project and be HAPPY that you have a job!

Will this delay the release of the schedule?

Demonpenz · 03-25-2009, 01:38 PM

How many people does the kansas speedway hold?

Fish · 03-25-2009, 01:39 PM

Most ****ed up offseason EVER!!!

I hope it does happen. I would love for the Unions to continue doing this stupid stuff. Then, MAYBE, people will start seeing them for the fact that they are nothing more than legalized organized crime that is backed by the democratic party.

I know quite a few union carpenters, including union steel workers and millwrights in KC.

I hope they can work something out, but to assume a construction worker isn't replacable is pretty funny. You're right that some 60 year old sprint IT guy probably can't, but strong backs are available. ALOT of construction guys are laid off right now.

Brock · 03-25-2009, 01:53 PM

Yeah, I'm sure the company isn't trying to **** them or anything. They wouldn't do that.

GoHuge · 03-25-2009, 01:54 PM

Hell yeah Kansas Speedway could hold them all and then some. That would be the best solution rather than trucking to Lawrence, Columbia, Lincoln or where the f#*k ever.

Also a caller just called and said her husband is a union worker and they don't have a say or a vote in what the union does. One man by the name of Terry Davis is the local president and he alone has the say so on whether the union excepts the construction companies bid or not. I say KC needs to go full on Nuthooks for this economic terrorists. He's basically committing extortion and using our beloved sports team as bait for these local businesses to put up more money. I think alot of union guys are going to continue to work because they know how lucky they are to have a good job.

Brock · 03-25-2009, 01:55 PM

Fire them all and hire illegal immigrants. That'll fix things.

**Iowanian** · 03-25-2009, 01:55 PM

The companies could be the a-holes as well, there is no doubt about that.

Given the economy and the number of construction companies that are slow, the number of employees that are laid off, I'd say they should probably be happy to still have their jobs, still be getting their benefits and have work.

There aren't alot of construction companies recording record profits the past couple of years that I'm aware of, are you?

I don't know what the situation is. If the company is asking for givebacks, don't blame the union for striking.

No way....there is too much $$$ at stake for all sides.
