KANSAS CITY COUNCIL DUDE QUINTON WINS SNORE BOWL MALAISE AFTERMATH WITH CHIEFS STL GAME ALTERNATIVE!?!?!
Update on a warm and fuzzy idea that doesn't do much to fix crime, finances or busted infrastructure BUT makes voters happy and feeling like their politicos are busy doing something besides chasing a better deal . . .
Kansas City Councilman Quinton Lucas says that game should be played in a city that already has NFL experience. He says instead of having teams playing in Mexico City, the league should have the Chiefs play a home game in St. Louis.
KMBC: Councilman floats idea of playing a Chiefs game in St. Louis
KCTV5: Could the Chiefs play some of their games in STL?
Developing . . .
Maybe they should just move to Columbia and rename as Missouri Chiefs.
ReplyDeleteevery other home game in KC and STL..
They would just need to find 6 or 7 more events to hold at Arrowhead to pay the bills.
St. Louis had two different nfl teams and lost them both. Fuck you Quinton, did you think of this when you were on a drunken gay weekend in Lawrence?
ReplyDeleteSTL wouldn't ever do this kind of favor for KC. No thank you. This is a bad idea. I think we should keep game in the U.S. but not give a boost to a city that would gladly steal our team.
ReplyDeleteSt. Louis has proven twice that their city doesn’t deserve an NFL team. Does the St Louis Blues schedule hockey games here?
ReplyDeleteWhat’s with the red tone of his skin?
ReplyDeleteMake it a pre season game, season ticket holders should't have to drive across the state for this.
ReplyDeleteIt's a better idea than any of you bitches ever had.
ReplyDeletefeel good marketing, that's the council for you. But when it comes to actual accomplishments any real progress they've made is few and far between. Sorry, I like Quinton but this is really just about him wanting to capitalize on the good feelings the team has among voters. Might as well have said that ice cream and kittens are nice too.
ReplyDeleteHere is my better idea...screw STL. They are the Kansas City not St Louis Chiefs. Curious how much missouri tax dollars are still being payed for that dome?????
ReplyDeleteWhat Lucas doesn't understand, among many many other things, is that the NFL is desperately trying to develop an interest in football overseas because the domestic market is about as big as it's ever going to get and the voracious money maw that the league is really about needs a constantly-growing supply of cash.
ReplyDeleteLucas' attempt at trying to be a "big picture" guy ends up just showing how provincial he really is.
How about working on reducing the violence and homicides in the Third District?
Lucas, you're a councilman for Kansas City, not St. Louis.
ReplyDeleteJust when I think that no mayoral candidate can come up with a worse idea than Wagner's property tax increase, Lucas proposes the dumbest
ReplyDeleteidea in the history of dumb ideas.
This would be a great idea if Lucas were running for mayor in St. Louis!
ReplyDeleteIs Lucas actively trying to destroy Kansas City? If he were, what would he be doing differently?
ReplyDeleteIt's just grandstanding to keep his name in the news. Next we'll learn that he was raped by Natalie Portman.
ReplyDeletePlaying over seas or in Mexico is stupid enough but going on tour with your team is really dumb.
ReplyDeletethanks to former County Exec Katheryn Shields, the Chiefs are obligated by contract to play their home games at Arrowhead.
ReplyDeleteLeague rules can require a game in a foreign country, but Jackson County's contract governs any game played in the USA.
