Kevin Kietzman Has Issues Kevin Kietzman

   I've long argued spending a ton of draft capital on offensive linemen is a loser's strategy and now we have the data to prove it.  Wait until you hear the teams that emphasize OL in the draft versus teams that don't.  Spoiler alert, the Chiefs are nearly dead last in using draft capital on the line and have three trophies to show for it.
   Bobby Witt Jr got a chance to be a hero after a Blue Jays error Tuesday night and he makes them pay.  The Royals snap a 3 game skid and our dear friends at www.pawsitivetailskc.org had a sellout for Bark at the Park. 
    Laird Veatch is the new AD at Mizzou and he's a great choice.  I've known Laird a long time and he's more than familiar with Mizzou as he worked in the department for several years.
   There's a perfect solution for how to stop the violence by Hamas activists, some shocking new stats on unmarried women swinging politics in America and Mayor Q gets heckled for inviting illegal aliens to KC.
  Also, the Federal Trade Commission is making non-compete agreements illegal and MLB commish Rob Manfred gets strong advice from a fan at a game. 

   The  NFL Draft begins Thursday night in Detroit and Andy Reid and Brett Veach will be making their picks with fat new contracts in tow.  Andy becomes the highest paid coach in NFL history and he's earned it.  Stan Weber will join us to talk about Mizzou, KSU and KU players in the draft and where the Chiefs may be going.
   Mayor Q is trying to back off his comments asking for the overcrowded illegal alien centers in other cities to send those people here.  Oh, his Dem power brokers aren't going to like this.
   Hamas terrorist group supporters in NY are arrested by the dozens as, shockingly, they turn violent in their hatred of Jews.
 

   The Orioles really brought the Royals down to earth Saturday and Sunday and we're left hoping this is just a little bump in the road.
   KU Athletics Director Travis Goff challenges Tim Fitzgerald of www.gopowercat.com to come to Lawrence for an interview about the football stadium renovation after Fitzgerald pointed out some uncomfortable things about the financing of the project. 
   A major league team and United Airlines are investing why and how a coach wound up in captains seat in the cockpit during a charter flight.
   Democrats wave Ukrainian flags on the House floor Saturday as we are spending $61 billion more to support war.
   Mayor Q is taking it from all sides after saying he wants KC to be a haven for illegal aliens.  And your emails after Friday's podcast were fantastic, I'll share some of the best.

   The popup ad that started playing in front of this podcast Wednesday was a surprise to me, too.  I'll explain fully what's going on and I'm asking for your input.
   Conservative writer Jack Cashill at www.wnd.com has authored a column asking if the George Floyd era is over after he snapped a picture of a giant mural of Floyd on a building near his office being painted over.  You have to hear this.
   It's too late for many suspended athletes from this past year but the federal government has implemented a new rule for college athletes pertaining to Title IX that will keep the fellas playing.
   George Brett went on MLB Radio and proclaimed what I've been saying for years: It's time for the Royals and Chiefs to split up.
   We'll talk some needs for the Chiefs in next week's draft, the NCAA wants more free agency for athletes and a former Royal gets suspended for something he said.  This could get interesting.

     Former Attorney General  William Barr is no fan of Donald Trump but says he'll vote for him in November.  Barr made the comments as he was speaking truth about the dangers of the Biden administration and weaponizing our justice system.  You gotta hear this.
   The Kansas City Star writes a headline that makes it look like Josh Hawley stole campaign funds to buy himself a car and then explains in the story it was a business move that any Missouri voter would see as brilliant and savvy..... and legal.
   How can it possibly be that millions of dollars worth of merchandise and memorabilia was stolen from Augusta National Golf Club over a 13 year period?  Even worse, it was somebody that worked there that has finally been arrested.  This sounds like a great Netflix movie or documentary.
   Caitlin Clark jerseys are already sold out and not available at major sites until August or October and retailers are blaming Nike.  But, what if Nike is up to something for themselves?
   The Royals get a double header split against the White Sox but its becoming alarming to see how weak their bats are on the road.
   And former Mizzou player Jontay Porter has been booted from the NBA for life.  I've got the details on his gambling scandal.  Then, our Final Final is a famous football coach that has never had coffee.

   It hurts to say this but KCMO Mayor Quentin Lucas inviting illegal aliens unhappy in New York to set up shop in KC will likely get somebody killed.  And he's willing to spend tax dollars to make it happen while presiding over record murder rates he cannot fix.  While Mayor Q is three years behind other big city Mayors that are now changing their minds after failure, this man can't stand the idea of others moving ahead of him in the Democrat party.  So collateral damage be damned, Q is on board now with all the other Dems that simply don't care about your safety.  This will impact everyone in our region.
