Hendricks is the first Star reporter to recognize that this banner was probably a mistake.

I’m no fan of Mike Hendricks, but I gotta give the guy credit for being the first Kansas City Star writer to finally – finally – realize that the search for a NBA or NHL team to play in the Sprint Center has been a disaster.
