And even if they did, I doubt they would waste their time discussing how the franchise that currently occupies the stadium has been a laughingstock for 3 decades. And even if they did, they will fall into the “small markets simply cannot compete” stance that people like Glass have worked hard to make popular.

I doubt national media like ESPN want to make their agenda trashing owners of major sports franchises. I’ve never heard them say a single bad thing about Donald Sterling, and that guy is pretty much the devil.

You're buzzing my kill.

I do know, like most of you I'm sure, that he avoids interviews with the local media like the plague, which wasn't the case when he wanted local tax dollars.

Damn I got trolled by Deez.

I have chosen apathy. So not sure what is worse.

I'm as big a baseball fan as anyone on this board and sadly I can't even say I'm excited about the ASG. It's cool that it's in KC and I hope it's a good game and visitors are impressed with the stadium and the city... but really I don't think it much matters if they are or aren't.

I don't know if it's because a couple of our players got snubbed in a game in our own city, or no Royal being in the HRD after we thought we were going to have one, or just what it is, but I'm not able to muster any excitement really and I find that disappointing.

Sadly, that sounds like the most intelligent move, by far. Save the energy for people who actually give a shit, like the Sporting ownership group.

Not to be debby downer about the whole thing, but can anyone remember (without looking it up) where the all-star game was located 2 years ago?

St. Louis was 2009.

ChiefsCountry 07-05-2012 03:55 PM

Then it was New York two years ago.

It's a complete and total shame that the best sports complex in the country has encountered/enjoyed championship play just one time.

ONCE.


pathetic.
