The owners are still going to be rich and get rich off the teams valuation increasing but this is the world we live in. Choose to live in reality or let Nashville or Texas take one or both of our teams.

Did you happen to read that article I posted about the breakdown of what Clay County was offering to the Royals? Dude who owned the land is one of Sherman's best friends. I would be willing to bet anyone the Royals don't go to Kansas. It will be A. The city of Kansas City finances them with city funds or B. the Royals play on the other side of the river. Kansas would need to pass ATLEAST 1b to get the Royals over. They just rejected expanding Medicare. Good luck getting some state rep on Hays to vote for it.
