If the Chiefs move to Kansas, is it really even the same team?
April 7, 2024
Suporting the "No" vote is showing to have been increasingly unreasonable.

Lol yes. The team has always represented both sides of the state line.
Yes? How is it not the same team lol
Uh yea. They’re not moving to fuckin’ Dodge City.
To everyone that lives outside of Jackson County and doesn’t give a shit about the KS/MO rivalry when it comes to the Chiefs, yes it’s the same team. You can move them to Topeka, I don’t care as long as it’s still the Kansas City Chiefs with the same branding.
You should always be supporting “NO” when billionaires ask for public funding to do any vanity project. They’re billionaires. If they’re committed to their fanbase, then they’ll figure it out – if they’re not, they won’t. It’s black and white.
Unless they’re going to give the fanbase and taxpayers part ownership of the team, which they won’t, then don’t ever give them access to public funding for a private project.
It’s unreasonable that people didn’t want to have their sales tax extended to pay for a stadium and stadium upgrades that the billionaires who own the team won’t shell out for? Maybe if the billionaires want their stadiums, they should pay for them. Why does that fall on the public?
If the Giants and Jets can be named after a state they don’t play in, the Chiefs can play in a state that’s in their name.
Oh good it sounds like they’ve decided to leave Jackson county. Now we can stop having this conversation about whether or not we should give them lots of money to stay.
I say this synopsis posted by another redditor on r/kansascity and I’m just going to copy paste it in to every post I see like this in this sub until the regular season starts
Billionaires: hey we want to build a stadium in the crossroads!
KC: uh we have some concerns about these plans.
Billionaires: just vote yes and we’ll figure it all out later.
KC: so can you provide some clarity on a few points here?
Billionaires: look what’s your problem here? anyone who doesn’t vote yes for this isn’t really a fan of the chiefs or royals.
KC: no it’s not that. After all we stuck with both teams through multiple horrendous losing seasons, remember? But we think this barely half baked plan will be a no from us.
Billionaires: wow…so ungrateful. Ok then. We’re done. After the way you’ve treated us, you’ll be lucky if we even go to Kansas.
Why do all of these people think “no” voters are idiots!? They’re not, that’s why they fucking voted no.
