The Sports blog Today’s Knuckleball in an article mostly about the royals, contained one interesting nugget of information for us Sporting fans. Apparently there is some lower level conversations between the Kansas City Royals and Sporting Kansas City about a creation of a Kansas City Sports Network with the two franchises providing a bulk of the content.
While it is still way to early for conjecture about possible new television rights it is important to note that both franchises enjoyed banner years, quite literally with Sporting winning the U.S. Open Cup and the Royals winning a World Series.
