Dear David Glass

The people of Jackson County have shown a generosity the likes of which haven’t been seen in this town since the passing of Ewing Kauffman. We are putting up about $200 Million to your $20 Million for what amounts to a new stadium. That’s about 10% you’re putting in? That’s not even a decent tip at a diner. I hope you don’t treat restaurant wait staff like you’re treating Kansas City. You will now have the “world class” facility you desire. There are no more excuses. We demand “world class” baseball to go with the stadium. You have your luxury boxes, your concourses. For that matter you even have your own television network. Put a good team on the field. Quit treating nickels like manhole covers and get some players. Cost cutting may work at Walmart, but this is the major league. You’re not buying bulk plastic crap from underpaid sweatshop workers overseas. There are no championship pennants awarded for best profit margin. This town deserves a good team. This town deserves a good owner. Prove to all of us you really do want to win.
