CHIEFS GAME MOVED TO LA!
NFL officials just confirmed as well. Like the idea of proceeds going to help fire victims, including first responders. Maybe encourage fans to bring necessities to game for donations, à la Harvesters. So much for training in Denver, Coach McVay.

But yeah, this is going to have repercussions. Mexico just lost a lot of prestige and they're not going to be happy about it, both with their own folks and the NFL. As a random musing, I wonder how much of this has to do with the fact that it's a game between two 9-1 teams on Monday Night Football. This is possibly the marquis game of the regular season for the NFL, and they want it to look good. Would they have moved the game if it had been between two 3-7 teams?

Weather will be in the 60's-70's, Onshore Sea Breeze. That could potentially kick up a lot of fire ash into the LA Basin and Valley's, have to take that day to day

Maybe this is all a cover story, and Mexico is retaliating for Trump's new tariffs on soccer imports to the U.S.

I think star players insisting that a union rep go down there an inspect the field wasn't going very well.
The NFL cut their losses and took the L before it grew into a bigger debacle. For ONCE. |

We should petition the NFL to move the game to a safe place. Like, say, Kansas City.

Fill that stadium with half chiefs fan. Have them wear an overshirt.
With the last words yelled home of the chiefs rip off the overshirts to a sea of red unexpectedly. |

I mean surely someone was tasked with making sure the stadium hadn't collapsed into a smoldering pile of rubble at some point. As part of that job, you would think "make sure the field doesn't look like a middle school playground" would be on the checklist.

Yeah, that really stinks. Now you're either eating the cost of a Mexico City flight AND buying an LA flight (with hotel tribulations, I'm sure), or you're going to Mexico City to find a sports bar.
