The Rams wanted the Rams to move, too, yet fans still wanted them to remain in STL. Sometimes you separate ownership/management and the team/players.So we’re all going to forget that Clark Hunt voted for the Rams move so he can have this market now ?
The vote was 30-2. Owners weren't going to block another owners decision unless it was some crazy decision, and the move made every other owner more money by going to bigger markets. It's not like it was part of Clark Hunt's evil plans to gain the St. Louis market.So we’re all going to forget that Clark Hunt voted for the Rams move so he can have this market now ?
Maybe from a fans perspective, but in the owners club, it's best to not go against the people with the most money and influence.The move was inevitable, BUT, if you really wanted STL money you should’ve voted nay out of principle.
That part is true. Kansas City views itself as the little brother and St. Louis as the big brother. They really hate Joe Buck. When I moved to KC, I viewed the Cards/Royals rivalry as just a fun game, but I realized that the Royals fans have a true hatred for the Cardinals.Besides, Kansas City has the largest Napoleon complex towards St. Louis. I checked the Chiefs’ twitter page. No retweeting of the Blues’ well wishes. What does that tell you ?
I don’t mind the Cardinal hate. I would hate them too if they invaded my venue on an annual basis, but the collective saltiness of St. Louis is pathetic.That part is true.

When the Royals got to the WS, I had the mindset of rooting for them with the whole root for Missouri thing. There were so many that hated that though, they would've much preferred me to not support the Royals. I'm just back to being completely indifferent with the Royals, like the rest of Kansas City.I do

Yeah. There are a bunch of Blues fans in KC and just around the area. Also a bunch of just hockey fans in the area that aren't necessarily Blues fans, but wanted to go to the game.Didn't the Blues hold a preseason game in KC recently and from what I remember it did pretty well? Obviously some I'm sure traveled from St. Louis but I think there were a lot of KC people there.
I don't understand the KC/St. Louis hate thing. I actually think it's a thing where KC hates St. Louis but those of us in St. Louis don't have an issue with KC at all. I'm a Chiefs fan and I'm pumped they're in the Super Bowl.

Yeah, I think a lot of the St. Louis fans that travel probably tend to be the more "confident" fans, so I can definitely appreciate the opinion when the best fans in baseball idea gets thrown around too much and people want to thump their chest with it.As someone who grew up in a KC sports household, I appreciated this tweet.
Despite my upbringing, I never really liked football until I watched Mahomes play. He makes Chiefs games must-see TV for me.
Not sure if this viewpoint is welcome here, but my dad says KC fans don't mind STL fans, but they do mind the overly pompous ones. All anecdotes, though.
I do see the inferiority complex KC has; I don't think the "rivalry" is nearly as heated as the STL-CHI rivalry due to how STL sees KC as the little bro. It does seem like a one-sided rivalry like some of you pointed out, for the lack of a better word.
I can, they kept moving the goal posts every time the city met with the guidelines. Kroenke sabotaged the team into complete irrelevance in order to tank attendance and **** talked the city as not viable for a football team. They can go **** themselvesI can’t really blame the NFL owners for voting the Rams to LA. The stadium will be awesome and if Kroenke wanted to front $2 Billion (now $6 billion lol) for a half-empty stadium then so be it. It’s a shame the NFL allowed all of this to take place with no compensation for St. Louis, but it looks like our city may get some money from this lawsuit. With all that being said, Go Chiefs!
