If i'm Sherman or Hunt and I see that margin, why would I waste my time pouring money into another proposal and campaign just to see it fail again?

This vote makes it very clear that Kansas City does not want the Royals or the Chiefs around.

Won't be surprised if Sherman especially starts talking to other cities very shortly.

The teams aren't simply going to throw their hands up and move away. Missouri also just voted to eliminate corporate income tax as well, which is more incentive for them to stay in MO.
I do think there is some urgency because you can't wait until the end of the lease to make a call. I don't think most sports teams wait until the absolute final year of the lease to make a move. The call has to be made in the next year or two just to give enough time to build a new stadium so there's a place to play by the last year of the lease. Even just renovating an existing stadium, the Arrowhead renovations would have started in 2027 and not been done until 2030 or 31.

It also makes it clear that the Chiefs had the pulse of this vote and may be one of the reasons the practice facilities have been neglected. I wouldn't be surprised if they look to move in 7 years and do a deal with Kansas, or another Missouri County and will move their practice facilities and will start building and moving their offices and practice facilities in the next few years.

If the chiefs don’t have the royals anchor they can get what they want. I said it from the beginning this vote was going to be a reflection of how the county feels about the royals and Sherman’s “plan”

And it was

Chiefs don't want to be at the Sports Complex anyways. They are licking their chops at Kansas. Royals listened too many people. Same clowns bitched at East Village then praised it when they moved to the better spot in the Crossroads. Then bitched about the Crossroads when its the right spot for it. North KC will probably jump on them if not Salt Lake City will. They got the ownership group with deep pockets and stadium plan.

Damn. I sure hope they don’t seriously consider out by Legends.

Chiefs can go to Kansas and the Royals can go to hell

No more complaining about the industrial park out in the middle of nowhere

Titty Meat 04-02-2024 08:11 PM
The Royals downtown might be dead but this thing didn't pass anywhere in Jackson County and likely wouldn't pass in Clay County. My guess is either the city somehow pays for it, or private funding with some help from the state, or a vote in Kansas

Propose the same tax but give 100% of the money to the Chiefs

that shit would pass immediately


Royals ****ed this up, it is completely on them

Clark will undoubtedly get in talks with other cities. He’s a business man. I doubt he would go far from hole though (Dallas).

He’ll likely use places like OKC or San Antonio as leverage

I am honestly shocked at the number of people who don’t want downtown baseball.

KCUnited 04-02-2024 08:13 PM
The Royals went YOLO and the Chiefs plans looked like Matt Cassel drew them up

The whole thing has been bizarre
