There is a Kansas City, Kansas. But the Chiefs offices and Stadium are on the Missouri side.

There are two... KC Kan... very small with small manufacturing and KC, Mo... much much bigger, with financial, technical, shopping, etc.

The Chiefs play in MO.

And, last time I checked, San Francisco (and the entire Bay Area now that the 49ers play in Santa Clara) are also part of the United States, no matter that Trump wishes we weren't.

I think Modesto is bigger than KC Kan.

I lived there for two years and was still getting lost when I retired and got the Hell out of KC, Mo.

But again, I'm not the President and I'm not giving the Orange Shitgibbon a pass on anything!

Can’t believe the Deep State put Kansas City in MISSOURI just to embarrass Trump.




The United States map is RIGGED! Who the hell put Kansas City in Missouri!?! It makes no sense! SO UNFAIR!!!




I'm not a football guy, but it sounds to me like what happened is Trump blew $10 million on Superbowl ads only to immediately wipe out any media news cycle buzz over them by mistaking Missouri for Kansas

After all, they enthusiastically employ partner- and child-beaters like Frank Clark and Tyreek Hill, while engaging their fans in historically-bullshit, racist faux-ritualism-chanting during very-popular-sportsball. For a Trump-brain, what's not to like (again, except the melanin)?

move all of Kansas City MO into Kansas. Problem solved.

After all, he once suggested moving all of Seoul, S. Korea , to avoid aggression from the North.

Let's see:
Population of Seoul, S. Korea: 9.776 million*
Popuation of Kansas City, MO: 488,943*
*2017

Kansas City should be a snap to move compared to Seoul!

Maybe I don't have enough experience with this, but it reads like someone congratulating a state university team or a HS all-state team in a national or international tournament.

I suppose it's just me, but I've never thought of pro teams as representing a geographic area.
