Kevin Kietzman Has Issues

   Mr. Wonderful, Kevin O'Leary from Shark Tank, is Canadian-American and loves a lot of what he's hearing from Trump and how it will benefit our friends north of our border.  In fact, O'Leary is so serious he says he's got an idea for Trump that sounds like a business merger that most Canadians think is a great idea, too.
   Word is getting out that one huge priority for Trump is passing election law through Congress in the first 100 days.  This is going to be hard but it's a very simple concept.  I've got details on why Trump wants to make election day a national holiday and how he is going to issue voter ID's to all our citizens.
   K-State's defense was so bad in the first half of the Rate Bowl against Rutgers you may have turned the game off.  If you did, you missed a record setting night by a new look KSU offensive scheme featuring the youngest skill players in America.  If this is a preview of next year... look out.
  The numbers are in and the NFL on Netflix just destroyed the NBA on Christmas day.  Lee Sterling has our weekly picks from www.paramountsports.com and our Song of the Week says goodbye to the 2024 ways of Joe Biden and hello to American Exceptionalism in 2025!

   It's pretty obvious the Chiefs have just been toying with the NFL and the numbers now prove it.  The Chiefs are playing their best football when it matters most.... in fact... we'd call it flawless except for the stupid penalties because of cockiness.  This team is the one seed and ready to rock.  Even Andy was living it up in a Santa suit.  Why not?
   Trump pens a Christmas letter to America and the world that is just so spectacularly Trump it may be your favorite present this holiday season.  We share it with you.
   And airliner crashes and kills dozens after it was apparently shot down in a Russian war zone as a mistake.
   Then, CNN's top conservative Scott Jennings wins a 2024 award and is described perfectly for the work he did during the presidential campaign.  

   There's only one way to really get ready for Christmas and that's to talk a little football.  Make that a LOT of football.  Stan Weber is here to preview the Chiefs/Steelers, talk #1 seed, dial up some KSU and MU bowl game scouting reports and maybe take a shot at the College Football Playoff.
   We both appreciate you listening to these popular episodes and wish you the happiest of holiday seasons however you worship or celebrate.  God bless you and your families.

   The Chiefs looked focused and playoff ready Saturday beating the Texans 27-19 and it looks like everyone on the team has a role.  KC has now won 19 of 20 since that Christmas Day loss a year ago and this time they can wrap up the #1 seed in the AFC with a win.
   Mizzou and Illinois played a thriller in the Braggin' Rights game in St. Louis.  KU dismantles Brown and K-State is circling the drain after a loss to Wichita State.
   In the father/son golf tourney this weekend, Tiger Woods played with his son Charlie.  On live national tv... the younger Woods got his first hole in one.  What a moment.
   Trump takes the stage at AmFest in Phoenix and throws down on the woke.  A story about Joe Biden taking a nap on Air Force One as grieving widows waited for him is understandably upsetting.  And a man in NKC wins millions by scratching off a Missouri Lottery ticket.
 

   Patrick Mahomes isn't even considered injured anymore and is considered a full go for Saturday as we stand by everything we said here about what transpired last Sunday.  Time to put the drama in the rear view mirror and get busy finding a way to win two more games.
   Hollywood Brown has been cleared to play and has a "good chance" to get on the field Saturday.  Stan Weber is here to give us the key matchups in this game... and the four College Football Playoff games in our Football Feast.
  Then, Lee Sterling joins us on fire for KKHI patrons as he went to 13-5 on Thursday nights for our patrons.  His picks are free if you're a patron and those that have played have already paid for several years worth of memberships riding this wave!  And, Lee is offering a free pick Friday at www.paramountsports.com by using the promo code FREE.
  Then, our song of the week is by the most successful folk/rock duo in Kansas City history as we lost a member of this band.  You'll want to hear this legendary song.

   It's a whole new world where our mostly incompetent politicians need outside help to get things done like a baseball team needs a pinch hitter or relief pitcher.  Congressman Cleaver was so embarrassed in front of his fellow Tax Gone Wild Dem friends in DC that he had to broker a deal to make Jackson County spend $70 million worth of 3 year old covid money.  Oh, and Elon Musk came off the bench to shut down Congress from a pay raise filled resolution.  What clowns these bodies are.
  Joe Biden is setting one land mine after another to handcuff Trump in his first few months.
  Patrick Mahomes is a full go, again, at practice and we have no idea why people are talking about him NOT playing.  Travis Kelce hints at retirement on his podcast.  Jon Gruden tells a phenomenal Andy Reid story and we will play it for you.  And K-State hoops coach Jerome Tang, in KC, was in the wrong place and the wrong time to make excuses and bash his fan base.

   What's up with all the Chiefs fans that want Patrick Mahomes to sit it out on Saturday?  It's shocking really as Mahomes has described this "mild" ankle sprain as less of an injury than he's had in the past.  Saturday's game is huge for KC... He needs to play.
   K-State is 6-4 this hoops season after losing in OT at T-Mobile Center in KC to Drake.  After the game, coach Jerome Tang and a couple players complained they are receiving unfair criticism.  Boo hoo.
   A fair assessment of President Trump as he meets with the biggest business leaders in the world is all he cares about now is piling up wins.  It feels like they are coming.
   Jackson County has a whopping $70 million in Covid money to spend and can't figure out how and Josh Hawley unloads on the president of the NCAA at a Senate hearing.

   You've heard the saying, "that guy has all the answers" and it's always used as an insult:  Except for Trump, who apparently does have all the answers.  He sure showed that off at his news conference Monday.
   Former Obama official Van Jones has spoken the truth and it must have been liberating.  Jones says Trump is the smartest and greatest president of our lifetime and is exploring how and why and what Dems can do to bottle up some of his magic.  Amazing.
   Members of Joe Biden's National Security team are having a hard time finding new jobs and it's creating "depression" as they "frantically" search for a soft landing.
   Patrick Mahomes injury doesn't sound nearly as bad as feared, so what's going on here?  Mizzou football is doubling the price of many tickets and the average price is going up over 50%.  And a touching tribute occurred Monday for legendary receiver Randy Moss as he fights cancer.
 

   The Chiefs took the ball away from the Cleveland Browns 6 times Sunday while playing clean on offense.  Not efficient... clean.  KC had no turnovers and no sacks despite constant pounding on Patrick Mahomes who left the game with an ankle injury.  It was an easy win and that's different.  But so many questions remain about where the Chiefs are headed.
   Meanwhile, the Buffalo Bills rolled into Detroit and shredded the Lions for 48 points in a game they led the entire day.  KC is going to almost certainly going to need to win 2 of its last 3 games to keep the #1 seed.
   KU bounced back from their rough road week and Mizzou gets another easy win to make it nine in a row.  This is getting good.
   Trump sued fake news ABC and Political Director George Stephanopoulos and the corporation caved and agrees to pay Trump $15 million and all his legal bills.  That's not even the best part.  Trump wins in style... wait until you hear where he made them donate the money.
   The CEO of a Kansas Drone manufacturer has a wild theory about the drones in New Jersey and I've got something to share with you about your birthday.

   Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker is back on the field kicking and looking good. Still, Butker is a bit of longshot to be playing for at least another week or two.  We have the latest Chiefs info for the game on Sunday.
   A college basketball coach with a really tough schedule offers up the quote of the year at his news conference.  I want to meet him, shake his hand and buy him a beer.  This dude has to be all MAGA and has the greatest attitude ever.
   Stan Weber is here with a football feast.  We get his thoughts on college programs hiring GM's, talk MU and KSU bowl matchups and preview the Chiefs and Browns while breaking down the race for the one seed.
   Lee Sterling of www.paramountsports.com is now 11-5 on the season with his Thursday night selections free for KKHI patrons who are cashing in.  Here's here to give you some NFL picks for games we select for this weekend.
   And our song of the week is from a soundtrack of an Apple+ show that features a song by a Hall of Fame artist in each episode.  But they aren't by the artist.  They're covers by Eddie Vedder, Weezer, Nathaniel Ratliffe, Jason Isbel, Stephen Marley and many others.  I play a cover you will know well from this show by Fitz and the Tantrums.
