Bob D. Campbell and Company was the structural engineer for the Truman Sports Complex. He probably has had a good laugh about all this cancer of concrete.

I want one of the teams to jump the state line just to see what kind of excuses Quinton Lucas makes. That dude has ridden Sly James’ coattails for 5 years, allowing homicide rates to go out of control, homeless encampments to largely pepper downtown, the plaza to become a shell of its former self, and largely doing nothing at all.
The airport, the World Cup, the Street Car, new downtown construction…all shit that was stamped under Sly’s watch. Lucas is more interested in photo ops and rubbing shoulders in DC (where he really wants to be) than he is in the betterment of Kansas City. Can’t stand that dude. |

My point was that even when you look at that statement from Frank White, he doesn't say anything or use any kind of language that a politician would say about working to keep the Royals and Chiefs. He kind of comes across like he's powerless watching the waves roll by, when he is the government official who actually has the ability to work with the teams to try and come up with a deal or plan that would be more acceptable for taxpayers. Or just say we're not doing this. |

The Royals didn't want him. Tax payers despise him. The only card he has left to play is burning the house down. |

The more you look at those stadium plans in Kansas, it's actually one hell of a design. Lots of Arrowhead tributes in it.

You can't negotiate with someone who doesn't want to negotiate. You say its Frank, I think it's the teams. Frank has everything to lose, the teams have everything to gain. |

1) Who owns the stadium(s), not the teams 2) How much employment tax will KCMO lose 3) Property tax on abandoned stadiums, who is paying that 4) Missouri loses money on less employment and the players salaries they have to pay on gameday checks 5) Is it the teams that are deferring maintenance or Jackson County 6) To redevelop TSC, after the teams leave, who pays the demo cost? Look at KCMO, no pro hockey, no pro basketball, no pro baseball, no pro football, no leadership |
