Priorities

Beware the Chicken Littles dressed in Bears’ jerseys now that the Kansas City Chiefs have agreed to leave Missouri for Kansas. Why? Because that august state is going to pick up 60 percent of the tab to build the Chiefs a new $3 billion stadium. How generous of a state that refuses to expand Medicaid coverage to residents. Truly, the state has its priorities in order. Better to help the Hunt family, carpetbag owners, before any needy Kansan. One last thing for the Chicken Littles to consider—the Chiefs intend to build a domed stadium, which will be number eleven in the NFL; the Bears’ would be number twelve and the Commanders’ thirteen. Correct me if I’m wrong, but if you keep increasing the supply of big indoor venues, won’t you be decreasing the chances of getting a Super Bowl or Final Four? Seems to me the sky’s falling only if you build an NFL dome.
