Vote in this poll if you actually live in Jackson county.
We've all shared our opinions in the other thread. But who gives a shit what somebody in Platte County or Johnson County or Phoenix or NYC thinks. We're all just noise. [Reply]

"We will approach it from a broader perspective going forward because time is short for us at this point and so we need to see what other options are out there for us,'' Hunt said. "When we started on this process three years ago, it felt like we had a very long time, a long runway with about 9½ [years] left on our lease. We're now down to 6½ and so I do feel very much of a sense of urgency.
"Arrowhead is a special place for our family and our fan base. That was one of the reasons that we focused on it with the last effort, but going forward it may make more sense for us to be in a new stadium.'
If people are being honest, Clark deserves more hate than Sherman over the plan they had. The Royals 3 quarter assed the plan but the Chiefs at best half assed it. They gave people of Jackson county literally nothing to be excited about (DIFFERENT ORIENTATION PARKING!!!) And now are going in a complete opposite direction now that the vote was turned down. I don't think it's a stretch to think they purposefully sabotaged the whole plan to get to this point. [Reply]

This was intentional. They wanted it to fail. They now have more leverage with the county, and they can reach out to other suitors with impunity. [Reply]

Maybe but the teams did spend a Jackson County record 6 million on campaign funding for the vote [Reply]

If you are talking about me, I absolutely would have voted for this as I hope they stay at Arrowhead. This would have locked that up for a long time on a trust me basis from Hunt with a limited plan. Now the county will have an albatross... [Reply]

It sounds like the KCK Legends area is pretty nice. Hard to blame Hunt if he wants to put a brand new indoor stadium there and host some big events like the Super Bowl & Final Four. An older Mahomes above age 35 would probably appreciate an indoor stadium instead of the super cold weather of his prime years. [Reply]

It's nice if you're a terrified suburbanite who likes concrete and parking lots. [Reply]
