Part of me wonders if they pitched this whole thing as "Move Royals here and do X, Y, Z to Arrowhead" it would be a slam dunk. Maybe they're just waiting to see what the Royals do and then build their ask around that. But you know it's coming, the Chiefs are going to ask for money soon and they're part of this process. But the Royals are taking the full-on lead in the community.

I think you got this right. The Chiefs know exactly what they want to do, and Step 1 involves the Royals moving so they can make use of all that space and finally develop the area around there into something.

The royals can move to the TBones park at the Legends. Might fill that one up

If entertainment districts matched team performance then the Royals might be good staying put next to Taco Bell, Denny's and The Fellowship of Christian Athletes

Royals taking on the arrows politically since replacing the stadiums are tricky situation and the Chiefs come in to get in passed.

Wut? These situations have next to nothing to do with each other outside of the fact they currently share the same complex. The Chiefs are currently one of the top organizations in the most popular sport in the United States. The Royals by comparison are a bottom tier organization in a sport that's stagnating at best. If/when the Chiefs actually gets serious about a potential new stadium, there will be a mad scramble by every potential location the Chiefs float to give Hunt money hand over fist to put the new stadium and surrounding entertainment district there.

Hell, the only thing that MAY save Sherman is if Mahomes becomes a public face for the effort since he's got money in the Royals

Damn, this mofo be spittin'!!!

Bummer has a good reputation for being a high-leverage lefty and ground ball pitcher, but that's quite the haul in quantity for a guy who had a 6.79 ERA last year.

If Soroka is healthy, that could be a good get for Nicky Getz's husband

It is a lot of guys but it's also Atlanta. Hard to get one over on them.

Bauer is a complete unlikable shithead. Doesn't make what happened to him right. What ever happened to innocent until proven guilty?

RockChalk 11-17-2023 07:22 AM

Innocent until proven guilty is not a thing in America anymore. Social media eliminated that law.
