yes and time for communities to push back.  Primary revenue for NFL but you saw reaction with Kaepernick - NFL does not like bad publicity - and if fans in KC do not want a stadium like was imposed on Bills fans they need to react.

Florio/PFT are going to be all over this! 🙄🙄

 

nah, the Bills to Toronto story seemed like his dream, and Pegula buying the team and the Bills building a new stadium here seems to have really broken his spirit and zest for relocation stories. 

 

Now he's back to "the end of football?" type stories to make himself feel better.

This is so ridiculous. Billionaire owners threatening middle class people to buy them a stadium otherwise their team will leave. This is one thing I hate about the NFL. Public funding for the stadiums of Billionaire owners is just wrong

Of course they will vote yes, as even wafting a threat about moving this franchise will be too awful for the region to bear, all grumbling aside. Pretty dirty pool by the Chiefs ownership however.

The goal of a business is to maximize revenue while minimizing costs.

 

If I owned the Bills and wanted a new stadium, I'd absolutely threaten to follow the Braves to San Diego even though I had no real intention of going anywhere.

Agreed.  They may be angling for the KC side, not the Missouri.  That’s possible, but the Hunt family has been around since the beginning.

That would be awesome LOL

 

I wouldn't wish that on any fanbase because we came that close to it happening to the Bills.

Don’t care, couldn’t happen to a better fan base at this point.

Mexico City Chiefs?   Sounds good.  

 

For real, I hope they get it figured out.  That's horrible to do to a fan base and I don't wish it on my worst enemy (chiefs) 

Calcutta Chiefs

 

Forget investing Europe, S. America, Africa… India is the biggest country in the world and it’s not getting smaller. Go be proactive Hunt family. Go find that money elsewhere 🤣

It's crazy the owners do this but the asset that they own and can sell for profit increases in value. Not sure how that's allowed, I'm sure there is a law to affirm its legal, but doesn't make me agree with it.

 

But as a fanbase you have to not dig your feet too deep in opposition or you end up with the San Diego Chargers situation, they had it down to only hotels and tourist type attractions would carry an increase in tax, which is a really good compromise IMO, they still said no and lost the team.

So sick of paying these billionaires fare. Putting rich peoples play pens on the backs of working class and on top of that gouging them to go see the product. Don't care if it's our local teams or other cities. Move as far as I'm concerned.

Except Chiefs fans are pretty decent people. You’ll get treated better there as a visiting fan than you will at Highmark.
