KC Star Admits Epic Fail But Won’t Fire Reporter, Taylor and Trav’s Rooftop Rendezvous, Biden Calls LL Cool J ”boy”, Fox Cuts Off Trump, CBB Big Season Ahead

   If they gave journalism awards for inconsistency, the Kansas City Star would have the biggest trophy case in America.  The paper that called for me to be fired because I said Andy Reid's convicted felon sons were bad hires as football coaches is keeping a race baiting reporter that got facts wrong with a story and tried to pick a fight with an employee at a company he was trashing.  Of course, they didn't believe Toriano Porter was a wild liberal agitator until a video of him surface being "completely unprofessional" according to his bosses.  He broke at least three statutes in the employee handbook.... but they will welcome him back!   I smell a Pulitzer.
   Travis Kelce must really have  a crush on Taylor Swift as he arranged for Prime Social Rooftop to kick everyone out at 8:00 Sunday night so he could throw a private party that lasted until 2:00 am.  There's a lot to hate about Taylor Swift's whiny, complaining songs and her politics, but this is kind of fun being the cool city. 
   Joe Biden steps in it again botching LL Cool J's name and then referring to him as "boy."  Oh, boy.
   Fox News immediately cuts away from a Donald Trump speech the second he mentioned a name they won't allow to be mentioned on their channel, the White House continues to fret about a third party candidate and with shiny recruiting classes, the upcoming hoops season is shaping up to be a great one in the midwest.

Chiefs Make Swift Work of Bears, WR Rice Emerging, Tigers and Hawks Ranked, Huge Poll Lead for Trump, American Soldiers in Ukraine

   The Chiefs made swift work of the Chicago Bears with the world's most popular singer watching from Travis Kelce's suite.  We'll all remember this as the Taylor Swift game as the happy couple rolled out of Arrowhead in a hot rod convertible.  But there's a lot of football to digest from this one with a defense that could be dominant and a rookie wide receiver emerging as the top target.
   We talk Dolphins, Broncos, Cowboys the Steelers plane making an emergency landing at KCI on their way home Sunday night.
   Then it's all college as Mizzou and KU get wins to crack the top 25 and KSU beats UCF.
   The Washington Post has released a poll that shows Donald Trump crushing Joe Biden.  But it's the way they describe their own poll that's the best part of the story.
   And did you know a hospital in Germany is treating wounded American soldiers from the battle field in Ukraine?  It's true.  

Murder Charge for KCK Store Mgr, Rand Paul Sums Up War, ”Rich Men” Singer Goes Corporate, Leipold Controversy for Truth, CFB Preview and Pigskin Picks

   This week, a store manager at O'Reilly auto parts in KCK, without a weapon, allegedly tried to stop two thieves that left one of them dead.  The details here are not all that well known just yet but the black DA that just charged the white store manager with 2nd degree murder charges says, "race did not play a part in the investigation."  Huh?
   Senator Rand Paul sums up the war in Ukraine and why we should stop supporting it in 60 seconds.
  That viral singer, Oliver Anthony, crooning Rich Men North of Richmond did what he said he wasn't going to do.  He signed a huge record deal with a giant corporation that reps Lizzo and Jonas Brothers.  
   KU coach Lance Leipold is being criticized by media in Utah that cover this week's opponent, BYU, just for telling the truth.
  We'll preview our CFB games this weekend and then Lee Sterling of www.paramountsports.com has this weeks point spread picks.

Chaotic Bears Coming to KC, Chiefs Injuries Pile Up, Royals Delay Stadium Again, Garland is Fraud, Cruz Prediction, Twindergarten Opens

   The Chicago Bears are a hot mess.  A really hot mess.  Their quarterback is 5-22 in 27 starts and is blaming the coaches.  The defensive coordinator just quit and they have a road game at KC.  This is going to be fun.
   The Chiefs injury list includes a whole bunch of starters but it's a good week to have this issue.
   The Royals quest for a new stadium hits another roadblock and they will no longer announce their site this month, pushing it off for somewhere down the road.
   A school in KCK has to play high school football games in daylight after gunfire broke out last week.
   Merrick Garland's appearance in front of the House Judiciary committee was a slap in the face to the citizens of this great land.  Senator Ted Cruz has a Dem prediction you may have heard someplace before.
  Howard Stern is excited about the latest jab and a school district in Pennsylvania is opening Kindergarten this fall for a record number of twins.

KCTV5 Lawsuits Pile Up, Local FBI Agent Infiltrates J6, Trump Speech Roils Biden, Chiefs Set Record, Mahomes Wants to Punt, KC Ballpark Money Problem

   Three lawsuits have been filed by journalists in four months against the parent company of KCTV 5 News In Kansas City and I can't ignore this anymore.  It's right in the wheelhouse here at KKHI as I'll let you know just how ridiculous local tv news has become. 
   As the House investigates the failures of security from January 6 it is learned that an FBI Field Officer from Kansas City was dressed as a Trump supporter and apparently leading demonstrators into the Capital.
   When the GOP holds its debate next week, Donald Trump will be giving a speech to the United Auto Workers in Detroit.  You think the other candidates are getting played?  Well, wait until you hear what a couple of the Biden people are saying off the record about this move.
   The Chiefs set an NFL record with their win on Sunday and it's a doozy.  Patrick Mahomes tells Carrington Harrison of 610 Sports Radio he wants to punt in a game and the Royals still have a giant financing hole in their plan for a new ballpark. 

Oak Park HS Trans Queen, Dems Burning Cash, Lib Singer Unloads, Mahomes Gains Power w/Contract, Kelce/Swift Song, Coach Covers Spread

   I was going to downplay the fact that Oak Park High School crowned a boy the Homecoming Queen this weekend because it just seemed too easy.  But now as the story has reached national outlets, those folks have done some digging and learned something even more shocking.
   Losing an $83 million fighter jet is a drop in the bucket for the cash the Dems are burning through.  Their biggest concern now?  Target conservatives with advertising to sway us to keep supporting money for Ukraine.  What a scam... Oh, and it's racist to boot.
   A whacky lib singer says she's leaving country music to sing for the oppressed.  Have fun.
   Patrick Mahomes got a lot more than money with his new contract... he got real power and leverage.  I'll explain.
   Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift may be a thing... so one great KKHI listener decided to ask AI to write a breakup song.... It's awesome!
   The Royals have won 5 of 6, Phil Mickelson pens an amazing letter about his gambling addiction and one NFL coach clearly made a decision to cover a spread for his fans Sunday.

Football Feast: Chiefs D Rocks, Mizzou Win for Ages, KU Escapes, Bill Self Blows It

   We are covering it all on the Football Feast as the Chiefs get their first win of the season behind a wicked great defensive performance.  Mizzou walks off a 61 yarder against K-State and it was pure pandemonium.  KU escapes at Nevada and I have some thoughts on Bill Self hanging on to a troubled player.
   Of course Stan Weber will join us with his analysis... belly up to the Feast!

Dem ”Wrap Up Smear” Targets Biden, Trump Landslide Poll, Alford Loves Cabo, CFB w/Pete Mundo, Lee’s Football Picks

   A new poll shows where Donald Trump is today versus a couple weeks before the 2020 election and it's incredible.  He's got huge gains with voters in all the right places.
  Missouri Congressman Mark Alford has introduced the CABO act and it has nothing to do with sandy beaches or my favorite little dog.
   KCMO's Pete Mundo has me as a guest this week at www.heartlandcollegesports.com and we talked football with an emphasis on KSU-Mizzou.  I'll have a clip for you on what Pete thinks.

GOP Cat Fight Annoying, Stigall Leaving KCMO Radio, Toney Owns Mistakes, Rodgers to Return, R’s Worst Season

   We try hard to accentuate the positive here at KKHI but sometimes you have to call a spade a spade.  This stupid in-fighting between Republicans is flat out annoying and despite winning he majority in the House of Representatives, these clowns are doing nothing but fighting each other.
   It came out of nowhere but www.chrisstigall.com has decided to leave his show on the popular KCMO Talk Radio station and work for the Herzog Foundation.  We have the details.
  Chiefs receiver Kadarius Toney owns up to all those drops last Thursday in the season opening loss.  I can promise you, drops won't be the story of this player this year.  I'll tell you what will be his story.
  Aaron Rodgers says he's returning to football after his season ending injury and the Royals are trying to get a new stadium during a record breaking year for losses.
 

Chris Jones Loses Big, Kelce & Taylor Swift, NFL Eyes Owning College Football, Impeachment Inquiry Falls Flat, Fugitive Caught, Packers Bar Tab Payoff

   If the reports from ESPN are accurate, Chris Jones lost big from his holdout with the Chiefs.  Really big.  He got no raise, some crazy hard to reach incentives and lost $3.6 million sitting out.  Oh, and the Chiefs can now franchise tag him next year.  This was insane.
    According to Page Six in New York, Travis Kelce has been "hanging out" with Taylor Swift.  Oh, boy, Jessica is not happy with this at all.
   Sports Biz Journal reports multiple sources saying the NFL wants to dissolve the NCAA and take over as owner and operator of college football.  This plan will cut out at least 20 schools currently considered in Power Conferences.
   Kevin McCarthy has such a dull way about him that the Speaker's announcement of an impeachment inquiry in Joe Biden just fell flat.
   The fugitive in Pennsylvania is caught after two weeks... did you know this killer was in America illegally?
   And a Wisconsin bar that is home to Packers fans became a Jets hating bar after Aaron Rodgers switched green.  They offered a crazy promotion for free drinks when the Jets lose and Packers fans were drinking like crazy for three hours Monday night.  Until they had to pay up.
