The Royals came from behind to win 3-2 Monday night despite a glaring problem in the lineup. It was a great night for starter Cole Ragans but a really bad night for Vinnie Pasquantino. I've got an idea that could be productive for this lineup.
A court in Texas slaps Chiefs receiver Rashee Rice with about a million rules he has to follow as his car crash case proceeds.

It was a weekend in sports filled with photo finishes, overtimes and extra innings. The closest race in the history of NASCAR took place Sunday at Kansas Speedway, the Kentucky Derby went three wide at the wire and the Royals lost a heartbreaker in extra innings. If you like hotly contested sports, this weekend had it all.
A couple of the events were huge social gatherings to be seen. Travis Kelce played the southern gentleman at the Derby while Donald Trump heard USA chants at the F1 race in Miami. No word if the former and future prez met with Patrick Mahomes but QB1 was there.
A restaurant owner closes his KCMO location in very public fashion after suffering their 8th break in over two years.
Tony Botello of www.tonyskansascity.com told www.petemundo.com that Cinco de Mayo as we know it was really started in Kansas City and it really is a party holiday that honors nothing. This is good stuff we didn't know.
A Palestinian American CEO of a men's products company is digging out of a deep hole after he expressed his support for Hamas terrorist demonstrators. Politico thinks it breaks news to its liberal readers informing them the demonstrators are paid operatives of leftist billionaires and Tom Brady gets roasted on Netflix and has to stop the pot shots at Pats owner Robert Kraft.

It's a big weekend of races at www.kansasspeedway.com Saturday and Sunday and the sport has a record $7.7 billion media rights deal in hand. Things are great, right? Team owner Michael Jordan, the greatest basketball player ever, says the whole thing could crumble and die if NASCAR doesn't work out a permanent deal with team owners like other sports have done. Is he right or is he just trying to make more money? It's unfortunate this is happening right around the races in KC.
The Royals take on the world champs this weekend and Brady Singer is up first. His numbers are excellent but something has been missing. I'll explain why he could be the key to the Royals making the playoffs or not.
Saturday is the 150th run for the roses at the Kentucky Derby, we've got a couple expert tips from the pros.
Joe Biden wants to make sure you and I are not Islamophobic on the same day he calls Japan Xenophobic because they won't allow mass immigration. Why can't Joe shut up and focus on his own job?
Our crime blotter in KCMO is bizarre as we have a "wheel by" shooting. Also, in the northland a man gets caught shoplifting at Walmart and then just completely shocks and stuns the cops that stopped him

Just when it looks like the Royals are fading, they amaze you. And yes, their 19 wins already is nothing short of glorious. They are a ridiculous 19-6 when they score more than one run! But many fans can't see the games on tv right now as Comcast/Bally Sports are fighting over money. We have your solution.
A lawmaker in Jackson County now wants a sales tax vote on the ballot in November... for the Chiefs only. He maybe should have thought of that a year ago instead of trotting out the same old stuff. Besides, this Hail Mary appears to be illegal as you can't put another vote on the ballot until a year after the previous vote.
A NASCAR story is the top sports story on the Star's website and it's about race. Not racing. There's a diversity program in NASCAR that led to Kyle Larson becoming a star. But everyone thinks he's white, how is he some shining star of a diversity program? Even further... wasn't he the dude suspended for using a racial slur?
Frat boys at UNC give us great hope for America's future as they stand guard over Old Glory and won't let "unwashed marxists" and "commies" tear the flag down. This is an great story.
The whacko's at KU finally woke up from their hazy, pot fueled naps the past couple weeks to see it's time for them to join the party and have a protest. What clowns. If you're going to be a real committed liberal, you can't follow. You need to lead!
And Kristi Noem tries to defend the stupidity of including a story in her book where she's proud she shot her 14 month old dog with a shotgun. She's done.

The Kansas House failed to even vote on a STAR bond proposal to fully finance the Chiefs and Royals before their session ended April 30 and there's a pretty understandable reason. The veto happy Dem governor keeps getting in the way of tax cuts as the state operates at a massive surplus and until cuts are passed, lawmakers don't want to vote on sports teams. It makes sense. It's also nearly certain now a special session will be called by the governor as she's the only thing standing in the way of greatness.
Meanwhile, your liberal KCMO mayor Quentin Lucas is calling on Republicans in Jeff City to bail him out and keep the Royals and Chiefs in KC. Good luck, Q. He made a pair of idiotic statements on X and he should be thrilled now if the state steps up just to keep the Royals.
The potential designer of a new Arrowhead West Stadium released images and a video and it's by far the most impressive thing we've seen for either team in three years. The Chiefs have clearly been working on moving to Kansas for awhile and appear ready to move from I-70 and 435 in Missouri to I-70 and 435 in Kansas.
As hundreds of arrests are being made on college campuses of lunatics camping and rioting for Hamas, we're confirming what we already knew. Most of these thugs are not students at all.
And 100,000 people living in a liberal city secede from the city and form their own government and will be led by conservatives. Every big city in America should be looking at this.

After 3 years of chaos between the Royals, Jackson County and KCMO, the state of Kansas is about to vote on new language in their STAR Bond laws that would finance 100% of a new stadium for the Chiefs and/or the Royals. 100 percent. The catch? Well... Kansas wants the project to cost at least $1 billion each and have at least 30,000 seats. This is swift and effective and there will be a deadline for the teams to take the money and run from Missouri.
So what a great time to have Kansas Speedway president Pat Warren on the podcast to talk about this week's Advent Health 400 in KCK and the possibility of new neighbors moving in. One important note, the interview with Mr. Warren was recorded prior to the Kansas legislature announcing Monday night it's prepared to make this offer to these teams. Kansas Speedway was partially financed by STAR bonds nearly 25 years ago.

Just as we first said when we saw the Chiefs release some stick figure renderings of a "reimagined" Arrowhead, the owner wants a shiny new stadium. This weekend, as the team was putting together another stellar draft class, Clark Hunt now says he has a "sense of urgency" as he parts ways with the Royals as a partner and is looking for a brand new stadium for his team. Smart man. May the best state win.
Sporting Manager Peter Vermes is just a flat out stud. He believes in accountability, self reliance, excellence and never makes excuses. No, Vermes isn't making an excuse if he pulls up an I-Pad in his post game news conference and shows you a picture of an offside infraction and blasts the refs. He's just proving the truth.
Rory McIlroy and his golf partner Shane Lowry win the two man team event on the PGA Tour and then party like rock stars with all the fans, a live band and a Journey karaoke for the ages in New Orleans.
Comedians Jerry Seinfeld and Colin Jost just hammer the whacky left in separate appearances over the weekend. Ron DeSantis and Donald Trump meet to 'bury the hatchet' and a haunting story from the Titanic ship wreck leads to a record auction item price.

The Chiefs got their perfect fit at wide receiver with the fastest player in the draft, Xavier Worthy out of Texas. How in the world did this happen? Well, the Buffalo Bills are idiots and should never have answered the phone when the Chiefs called about a trade. It used to be teams on your division would never do business with you but let's ask the very real question: Why would ANY team in the AFC trade with the Chiefs? At the same time, the AFC was loading up on guards and tackles and passing on skill position players. It's hard to believe it's this easy for Kansas City.
The Royals win their third straight taking a 2-1 lead into a long rain delay Thursday. Eventually the game was called and the Royals just started a winning streak with a very weak offensive showing. We'll take it.
There's a change to the way Joe Biden will be shown in public, you have to hear this. Adam Schiff is carjacked on a visit to San Francisco and a former Royals has a blazing hot podcast.

The University of Texas is a liberal school in a liberal city but even they know how to deal with Hamas protesters and rioters. The school president had over 30 people arrested on campus and released a strong statement saying this campus "will not be occupied." Well played.
Joe Biden is somehow still our president even though the man literally can't read. Wait until you hear about his latest gaffe trying to read a speech.
An excellent story in the KC Star explains just how improbable it is to trade up like the Chiefs did when they landed Patrick Mahomes. It almost always fails.
KSU and ISU will be America's first football game of the 2025 season and they will play it in Dublin, Ireland. The Royals win for the second night in a row with excellent pitching, NBA playoff ratings are down again and a Cubs pitcher has his patriotic glove taken away from him by an umpire.

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.
