      <![CDATA[One thing people forget is that AEG manages most of the arenas in the country. They can basically tell anyone that if you don't want to play KC, you don't play LA. So losing the newness may not matter.

      <![CDATA[Once the Sprint Center (inevitably) loses it's newness, AEG and whatever shortsighted mayor will tell the city that the Sprint Center needs hundreds of millions of dollars of renovations. They'll make even more outlandish problems that they can't deliver - maybe a political national convention - and dupe the taxpayers into going even further into debt while ignoring the city's crumbling infrastructure and social plight.

      <![CDATA[I agree with jjskck - in another two or three years, the Sprint Center is not going to be the newest game in town - some other arena will. Let's face it - KC was talked about as a destination for NBA/NHL more because of AEG and the fact that we had a new arena then this town actually being able to support the NBA or NHL.

      <![CDATA[Keep in mind that as the fresh sheen on the Sprint Center fades, so does the likelihood of attracting those 41 guaranteed dates a year.<br>And even with that, I'm still highly skeptical that a 3rd pro sports franchise can be profitable in KC.<br>That said, I still have no beef with the arena at all. They financed it with other people's money, more or less, and say what you will about that practice--every freaking city in the US does it.
