Kevin Kietzman Has Issues

   It's a great time to be reflecting and thankful for what we have living in the greatest country in the history of man.  We'll share a few thoughts.
   You sure wouldn't think dems are very thankful as universities are promoting Thanksgiving as a "day of mourning" and a mission to "decolonize" the holiday.  This is happening while their leaders are trying to derail our military.  Unbelievable.
   Press secretary Karoline Leavitt has some family drama going on as her nephews mom is being processed to get deported after being here illegally for over 25 years.
   We have the story of the very beginning of the Plaza lights in KC.
   KU rolls Syracuse in the Players Era tourney and will play for big money Wednesday night.  KSU coach Jerome Tang apologizes again and already for being an unprepared, bad coach.  When will it end?  An ESPN announcer makes an outrageous statement about a backup player being the most powerful black man since Obama.
   Isiah Pacheco is back for the Chiefs Thursday and Lee Sterling has our point spread picks.
   Our Final Final is a blast from the past that has a new pitch to sell.  You may just say, WOW.

   It's a holiday week and while it sounds silly hear a transportation secretary ask Americans to dress a little nicer and be a little kinder to one another at the airport, maybe he makes a good point.
   Another activist judge tosses out cases Trump's DOJ brings, this time for the most ridiculous reason ever.  It has nothing to do with merits of the case.
   A senator from Arizona is now making threats of retribution on anyone going after Senator Mark Kelly for imploring military members to ignore orders.
   A small town in Kansas plays a big part in the Macy's Day Parade in New York.  My man Chris at www.bstock.net send me a gem of a post on how the Chiefs can win the division AND did a really sweet thing for my mom.
   KU beats Notre Dame without star player Darryn Peterson.  K-State is at Indiana Tuesday while Mizzou gets a gimme.  Sophie Cunningham backs up Michael Porter Junior's comments about 8th grade boys being able to beat a WNBA team and a man known as "Russian Popeye" has a huge problem on his hands.

   The old adage "stats are for losers" almost applied to the Chiefs against the Colts except for one big, big thing.  The Chiefs won.  If you looked at all the numbers, this should have been a KC blowout as the defense was just spectacular against the best runningback in the NFL.  But it's the same troubles that have plagued this team all year that put the Chiefs in a really tough spot.  Penalties, sloppy turnovers and bad special teams.  Take the win, clean up the rest for the home stretch.
   It looks like it actually got tougher to make the playoffs as all three teams at 7-4, in the playoffs, have wins over KC too.  That means the Chiefs are two games back of all of them.
   It was a bummer of a college Saturday but nobody had it worse than KSU coach Chris Klieman who just lost it in his post game news conference, literally crying and asking for respect.  Oh my. 
   Trump wants to fix up Joint Base Andrews including their golf courses.  Does this guy miss anything? Wait until you hear who he's asking for help.   Also, Elon Musk nails it when it comes to our homeless problem in America, the AP is suing Trump over the Gulf of America and one of our sponsors is a very proud dad as his daughter's college volleyball team wins a national title. 

   The shutdown and more has put President Trump, for the first time, on a little thin ice with some of his base.  It's all about the economy and he seems to know it.  Now it needs to work.
   A famous burger chain from the midwest has a franchiser declaring bankruptcy that on the surface doesn't make sense.
   Tom Brady trolls Chiefs haters with his latest power poll.  Lee Sterling is here with point spread picks and you absolutely have the hear the story about our Song of the Week artist and an unbelievable song that will get you thinking.  You probably have never heard of this guy.

   You know one of our  pillars at KKHI for yasty content is when people actually say things.  Not political lies or throwing mud... it's when you get something from the inside that you may have thought was true but didn't know for sure.  We've got a couple of those today.  First, a billionaire confirms something we've all thought about how things are inside Trump's White House.  The other, well, it's Gracie Hunt.  She has a few words for the Commissioner of the NFL and we LOVE it.
   For the first time in Patrick Mahomes' Hall of Fame career, he's playing a regular season game that is a "must win."  It's true.  This Sunday's game against the Colts is almost certainly the difference between turning the corner and making a playoff run that scares the hell out of the AFC, or sliding into the ditch and calling 911.
   Stan Weber will join us to discuss a matchup he says is really hard for the Chiefs.  We'll talk about 2PM's overthrows on deep balls and 4th quarter failures and a really rough schedule this weekend for our college teams.
  Our Final Final involves bacon that's not for eating.  Hmmmmm.

   If you saw pictures or videos of the elegant dinner Tuesday night at the White House all you could think is President Trump is making dinners great again.  Oh, and we need a new ballroom at the White House.  Wait until you hear this guest list.
   A listener sent an incredible email about what he sees every day in the trucking industry and you will be shocked.  Marco Rubio announces a whopping number of VISA's he's revoked because people come here and do bad things.
  In sports, KU played Duke hard and tough but just didn't have enough without star guard Darryn Peterson.  But it left you asking the question if KU is better than Duke if they did have him.  A survey in Kansas regarding new ballparks is a total waste of time.  HOA's near the 119th and Nalls site seem to think they have some power in preventing the Royals from building.
   The computer says the Chiefs are 50/50 to make the playoffs, I'll take the YES side of that bet and we explain why.  Callaway sells Top Golf and our Final Final is an online trend of how to get the best of Porch Pirates.

   Illegal aliens committing crimes has reached critical mass all over America.  After an ICE operation in Charlotte, 21,000 students call in sick for school. 140 Venezuelan gang bangers are caught in a sex ring in Texas and ICE rounds up 10 bad guys in Kansas.  Then, the cherry on top.  We have an alien terrorist from Uzbekistan driving through Kansas with a Pennsylvania CDL license.  What could possible go wrong with a terrorist driving an 18 wheeler?
   So what do we do in KC?  We rally up to release the Epstein files from decades ago.  What a joke.
   KC car break ins continue to grow in Westport and so do thefts.
   In the aftermath of the Chiefs loss, did you notice all the haters that are out celebrating and bashing the team?  But there is one thing NONE of them will say and it's hilarious.
   KU plays Duke Tuesday and they are a massive underdog without Darryn Peterson.  KSU and MU win Monday.  Stephen A. Smith says politicians from one party won't go on his podcast and Marco Rubio warns World Cup fans about coming to America.
 

   The Chiefs have gone from the team that almost lost to the team that almost won.  It's pretty obvious watching these guys that the game is almost always more important to their opponent than it is for KC.  If that doesn't change, this season is a train wreck.  But while Denver won its Super Bowl on Sunday at Mile High, there's just too many games left to count out the Chiefs.  If they find the fire, they will make it in easily and could be really hard to knock out.  If they keep up with the slop, this season could be over in 10 days.
   KU hoops is suffering the modern drama of paying a great player that wants the money but doesn't want to be there.  It's now obvious to anyone watching that Darryn Peterson, his agent, his team and likely his family are taking Bill Self for a ride.  This is why older coaches are retiring.  The players are in control now.
   It's a big week in DC as Putin says he wants to meet with Trump again.  Same for Maduro in Venzuela.  Trump has ordered the Epstein files released and we are about to get a huge change with the SNAP program.
   The Cleveland Clinic jabbed up thousands of employees with a flu shot last year and found some incredible results.  Spoiler alert... don't get the shot unless your doctor tells you to.
   A midwest city is going to charge you a fee to work your car accident and a rock star obliterates the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame calling it "shameful."

   Homeland security is now taking aim at the non citizen mayor of Coldwater, KS for voting illegally and criminal convictions in his past.  Hey, they told us this never happens.  If he's been a fraud for 40 years in Kansas, how many more are there nationwide.  We have a lot of work to do.
   Right in the middle of an interview segment bashing President Trump and Jeffrey Epstein, the host reads a legal disclaimer prepared by lawyers.  You have to hear this.
   KC has federal money in fund to buy new busses but they won't be purchasing.  They need it to operate during the World Cup instead.  It's crazy how they are stealing our money to host this event.
  In sports, I have a bold prediction about the New England Patriots, Lee Sterling of www.paramountsports.com is here with his picks for MU, KSU and the Chiefs and our song of the week is a wonderful history lesson you will enjoy.

   President Trump signed the continuing CR Wednesday night ending our "national nightmare" and "suffering" that we all endured. Please.  Spare me the hype.  Roll up your sleeves, work on everything that's broken and get back to us when you're making progress.
   Sharice Davids, of course, voted NO to opening the government.  Wait until you hear why.
   The US Ag secretary is promising huge announcements next week to clean up SNAP funding as she calls it "perhaps the most corrupt and dysfunctional program in American history."
   Pat McAfee is still upset people reacted poorly to his interview with Trump.
   Then, college sports business is bugging millions of us in a real way.  We ask business man and college sports expert Stan Weber what he would do to kill the chaos.   And we spend a good deal of time on the Chiefs/Broncos game Sunday that suddenly looks like the fork in the road for the Chiefs.
   Our Final Final is a great mortgage idea that takes days, not 50 years.
