To my knowledge stl did receive the settlement money. It was in the 700m range though. Regardless, he’s 1 of 2 people who I’ll be celebrating their eventual departure from the mortal realm.

Yeah, it was supposed to get 750 million. I misremembered. Is the other person who he has donated millions to their presidential election fund? Cause if so, I think we just became friends. As a Chiefs fan, but fellow Missourian. Fuck Kroenke.

I lived in kc all throughout my teens. Have a big spot in my heart for the area. I’m not a chiefs guy but I really don’t care about football anyway since oh about…2016ish. But I do love the stadium parking lot. We used to go sledding there in the winter.

We did get the money, a few years ago. Only a tiny fraction of what we should have gotten though. Stan should be sleeping under highway overpasses and eating out of trash cans right now.
