Kevin Kietzman Has Issues

    I don't ever remember a Chiefs draft that was so resoundingly applauded as this year.  The Chiefs get defensive with a focus on the secondary adding 5 players to defend three great quarterbacks in the AFC West.    The Royals get swept by their nemesis, the Yankees, and it wasn't pretty.  KC can't score and they don't know how to win.  It's ugly early as they drop to 7-13.    2700 packed into a...

   After the wide receiver crop didn't fall the way of the Chiefs, they absolutely crushed it with their two first round selections.  A trade up for a cornerback and having their edge rusher fall to the 30th pick was the perfect night.    We've mentioned, short of the U.S. going to war, Elon Musk buying Twitter is the biggest story in America this year.  Everything going forward will be a reaction...

   It's the start of the NFL draft and unless there's a trade, the Chiefs won't be on the clock until late Thursday night.    The bigger news is structural damage to Royals shortstop Adelberto Mondesi's knee as he's set to hit the Injury List.  And it because it's a knee, the Royals fear it could be worse than that.    Ryan Lefebvre joins us to talk about Mondesi's history of injuries, Daniel Lync...

   NCAA President Mark Emmert says he's stepping down some time in the next year and the liberal sports media are all speaking in unison celebrating and laughing at his tenure.  But why?  These reporters got everything they wanted to take down college athletics.... and more... during Emmert's tenure.    Royals left Daniel Lynch now has 12 straight scoreless innings and is showing signs he may be t...

   Elon Musk is the new owner of Twitter and the first thing he did was lock it down from his own employees, fearing they would tamper with the service before he'd get a chance to take a look.    A liberal judge in Wyandotte County has struck down the new Congressional District 3 Map in Kansas as it now heads to Kansas Supreme Court.    The Royals are making waves for some alternative uniforms the...

   Candidates running for U.S. Senate in Missouri traded shots at each other Saturday night at the Jackson County Republicans Lincoln/Reagan Day dinner... it was not something I expected as the emcee.   The Royals look like they will never win a road game after getting some timely hits over the weekend in Seattle creating plenty of chances to win.  But they get swept.  Ouch.    Former K-State bask...

   Missouri AG Eric Schmitt is the front man for a lawsuit by over 20 AG's that is seeking a temporary restraining order against the Biden administration's quest to let Title 42 expire at the border.   At a speech at Stanford University, Barack Obama is calling for more censorship and less free speech in America while comparing conservative Steve Bannon to Vladimir Putin.    Mike Tyson pummels a p...

   The Royals have won three in a  row and they've done it with great pitching.  Not good pitching, great pitching.  This is exciting but I need more, more, more to get really fired up that they can compete.  The Royals scored a run on a double play and another on a bunt.... and WON!  Now we're talking.    The Chiefs have no excuse whatsoever to not offer the 49ers whatever draft picks they want i...

   To be perfectly clear, there is no confusion on mask wearing.  Don't wear it if you don't want.  So why do so many on the right keep saying there is confusion everywhere?  We're sending the wrong message.    The Missouri House passes the Parent's Bill of Rights regarding education and it has libs fuming.    The Johnny Depp/Amber Heard trial may be interesting at times but it's the most tone dea...

   Saturday night in Kansas City, most of the Republicans running for Senate, Congress and Jackson County seats will gather at the Jackson County Republicans Lincoln/Reagan Dinner downtown.  Tickets are available at www.jacomo.gop and as emcee, I'd love to see you there.  It's $50 and includes a great Italian Dinner and you can hear all the candidates talk about their visions.     Kress Cambers is...

   There are unmasking celebrations on airplanes all over the internet which is fun.  A 33 year old Trump judge just freed everyone but it is kind of sad we are this excited to be free.  It should be a given.    Missouri Senate candidate Vicky Hartzler is attacked by the Star for being Christian... on Easter!  You can hear her speak Saturday night in KC at the www.jacomo.gop dinner I will be emcee...

   It's tax day and for most people, that's not a big deal.  But what about college athletes now getting paid big money in some cases, how will they handle this system?  Here's a clue... most won't handle it well.    Former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey torches the board he sits on and is basically saying they are ruining the company.  Sounds like @jack wants his 38% profit from Elon Musk and a wave goo...

   The Missouri House is passing a sweeping Elections Bill that will call for a full audit of registered voters and give school districts the option to hold elections on things like biological males playing in girls sports.  This is such good news, let's get it across the finish line!    Elon Musk is still trying to buy Twitter and a Saudi Prince is trying to stop it.  Musk then did what Phil Mick...

   Elon Musk has offered $43 billion to buy Twitter and take it private.  The board is debating whether or not to take it and this is just spectacular.      There were 5 murders in 24 hours in KC this week after we just had our two deadliest years ever.  Mayor Q said over two years ago that curbing violence was his #1 priority.  He has failed miserably.    It's an election year so dems are offerin...

    A strange, one game road trip to St. Louis shortened by rain provided a perfect chance for Ryan Lefebvre to join us to talk about the state of the team one week into the season.  Also, we get his thoughts on all the network broadcasters jumping ship for big cash. 

   The subway shooter suspect in New York is a crazy hater that authorities knew about prior to his botched attempt at "exterminating" oppressors and creating an "American Auschwitz."  How does a 62 year old man get this radicalized in America?  Well, we've made two full years of mistakes and have a constant drumbeat from media and pols that encourage this behavior.    Truth is what's in short sup...

   A couple things going on in Kansas are very nice wins this spring.  Redistricting for Congress is working out and liberal Governor Laura Kelly is forced by her opponent to sign a new law against Sanctuary cities.    As we watch the horrors in China and Ukraine, it's all a good reminder that our government wants more control and big tech and media want to filter information you receive.    The R...

   The National Champion Kansas Jayhawks celebrated in style in front of tens of thousands of fans in Lawrence creating memories for a lifetime.    Three really high draft choice pitchers for the Royals get rocked Sunday at the K.  Bubic, Kowar and Singer combine to give up 16 runs.  Why are the Royals so bad at developing pitchers?    Scottie Scheffler wins the Masters and has now incredibly won...

The Royals win their opener against Cleveland and Bobby Witt Jr has the game winning hit! There hasn't been this much hype about a player for the Royals in a while, and he delivered the game winning RBI in the late innings for his club. Tiger Woods was good today, he was able to recover and make a lot of pars to shoot 71. Does he have a chance at Augusta?

   The Royals open against Cleveland at the K on Thursday afternoon and we have your season preview!    We hear from www.dannyclinkscale.com about what to expect, and while he's not as bullish as I am on the Royals, he sees the upside like everyone else.   Also, Ryan Lefebvre on expectations for Bobby Witt Jr who, like Ryan, is the son of a big leaguer.    And we have the audio of manager Mike Mat...

   Emily Stone and Heather Eslick were kind enough to join us at KKHI and we congratulate them on their school board wins in Harrisonville and Lee's Summit Tuesday night as school boards are moving to the right!  We break down how it went all over the area.    Former President Obama was way off his game at the White House Tuesday and I can't believe nobody is talking about his absolute flub at the...

   It's been about 25 years since my lifelong friend Steve Specht came up with the idea of me doing a weekly golf show on radio from his driving range and family fun center in Overland Park.      We've each had pretty good runs since then as Steve is now the General Manager of Canyon Farms, the jewel of the www.greatlifekc.com clubs and courses around the midwest.  Steve's a busy guy this time of...

   It's common to say a title is "one for the ages" but the Kansas Jayhawks comeback win over North Carolina truly was.  What an incredible effort, with flawless execution, in the second half.    The only down side was hearing Charles Barkley blunder calling Dave McCormack a "nice little player" that isn't playing against the "shrimps" of Villanova and NCAA president Mark Emmert call the team the...

   KU and UNC are ready to play for it all Monday night, we've got the preview and the prediction for you.    A Kansas City pro team is now listing pronouns in the bios of its players.  What is this all about?    A national football writer lists Kansas City as the top landing spot for communist quarterback Colin Kaepernick and I think that's the craziest thing I've heard this year.    Kansas Passe...

   We ar e so honored to have Royals broadcaster Ryan Lefebvre joining us regularly on the podcast this season and we know you'll love his baseball insight.    But our goal is to bring you much more than that.  Ryan will tell you his family and his faith are  more important than any game or broadcast and I think we can all learn from his journey.  On our first episode this year, Ryan shares some p...
