Re: I-80 signs on the iowa side
I think as a traveler / visitor coming to Omaha, I would like to know the fastest route to downtown or the old market or college, World Series, etc. The last thing I will use to determine the best way to go someplace is the road signs. All they do in this day and age is confirm I might be on the ri...

Re: Union Omaha 2024
I hope they can find a bigger/better venue than Werner for that game, which I believe would be the first MLS match ever in NE. Nope. will actually be smaller, but that's fine. I'd assume the tickets will be almost exclusively for Union Omaha season ticket holders with a few going to SKC and maybe a...

Don't look now, but with only 151 games left, the KC Royals are only 1/2 game out of first place in the AL Central and third place overall in the AL!!
It's almost like, since the vote, they are playing for a new stadium and on a seven-game win streak.
