There has to be something else behind the sudden cancellation to the bowling tournament, right? Has to be...SURELY staffers at the city didn't just let a $100 million package "fall through the cracks" as the City Councils seems to want us to believe. How could anyone just let trivial matters get in the way of such a huge deal for the Wichita economy?

The City Council seems to be of the opinion that the city staff dropped the ball and looked like nothing short of a deer in headlights when this situation was "brought to their attention". Where was the oversight committee? Why were there no COUNCILMEMBERS in charge of seeing to these negotations? It seems to me that if you have $100 million riding on a yes or no answer, you get some ELECTED OFFICIALS off their butts and into the hot seat to make darn sure we get that YES.

There are people and organizations around town that are trying SO hard to rev up Wichita's economy, to attract attention, to bring new business, industry, and people to Wichita...turn up the excitement...and we have these bumbleheads in office throwing away hundreds of millions of dollars because they were too thickheaded to say "yes we can, Mr. Bowling President Guy" and then make it happen.

 Good Job, Wichita City Council. Good Job, Mayor Brewer, welcome to the inferno.
