Kevin Kietzman Has Issues

   Spencer Kietzman has issues with the new "Vax or Mask" announcement.  The NCAA shanks it off the tee by ending the college careers of some scholarship golfers who were stunned when their event was cancelled.  And the Royals have made a little rebound in Chicago.

   The "Mask-uerade" is over.  The CDC says we don't have to do this with a vaccine available.  No kidding... what in the world took so long?
   A private company with 36,000 is offering free college to all of them  and dependents.  And they are hiring and you don't even need a high school degree to work there.  So much for excuses in America that you can't get ahead.  The private sector is leading the way again.
   Hunter Dozier has become the poster boy for the Royals 11 game losing streak.  Dozier is 0-31 and everyone is all over him.  Remember when this happened to Alex Gordon and people said it's because of moving him around on defense?  
   And there's a sex scandal at Ohio State with the football team.  No surprise there.  But the NCAA says it's ok the players were paying for sex because the money didn't come from boosters or agents.  It came from the stipend Ohio State pays them, so it's all good.

   It's good to know somebody that makes every day count.
   Former Royals pitcher Jaime Bluma soared from high school baseball in Oklahoma to record setting closer during Wichita State baseball's glory days.  Two years later, just as he was settling into the Royals bullpen, a shoulder injury changed everything.
   Never a man to slow down, Bluma turned to working with kids and raising money for military charities.  His foundation, www.redwhiteandbluma.org is planning its next big event and you can join the cause.
   This conversation is with a really interesting man that got injured helping a child on the side of the road that was in a car wreck and went all the way to Alaska to be a pitching coach. 

   I loved when the NFL schedule came out long before it was cool.  But I'm not sure I've ever seen a Chiefs schedule like this.  The opener is Sept 12 at Arrowhead against the Browns and the playoff teams just keep coming.  The home schedule is incredible and if you want to travel, there's Vegas and Nashville.
   The Royals took a turn for the worse and made it 9 in a row, this is turning into a nightmare.
   Sporting KC is opening full capacity later this month and that news comes out the same day the NY Times blasts the CDC for basically lying to all of us.  Yes, the NY Times.  Let's all get outdoors, it's always been safe.
   Tony Fauci took questions from doctors Rand Paul and Roger Marshall on capitol hill and we've got a theory about where this is going.
   And does the Biden administration care about anything that matters or just the fluff that divides us?   We have a gas crisis, inflation, and bombs flying in the middle east.  Is Jimmy Carter back?

   The firing of Olathe North baseball coach Pete Flood was predictable after the media misreported that he called a player a racial slur.  All sides are in agreement now that the coach used the N-word about some disgusting music players were playing.  What's at issue here is exactly how he used the word.  Didn't matter, he's fired.
   With gas prices soaring and some stations out of gas, is Joe Biden the next Jimmy Carter?  If he is, we are on the verge of a conservative wave in America like we haven't seen since the '80's.
   There's one thing the Royals were good at earlier this year that led to a bunch of wins that they have been really bad at the past week.  It's the biggest chance for the this team to fix the losing.
   The Denver Broncos are making noise that they really, really want quarterback Aaron Rodgers in a trade with the Packers and the latest details have us slightly worried.
   A popular Saints player is putting up money to help New Orleans police, this is progress.  And a popular personality is leaving ESPN.

   It was a special day for my mom at Kauffman Stadium, even though the Royals lost again.  This was sort of our own personal finish line with Covid and it felt that way.  
   A week after Medina Spirit wins the Kentucky Derby there is controversy.  Big controversy as it's not possible this is the first horse disqualified from winning since 1968.
   The Los Angeles Times is losing money so its billionaire owner wants... you guessed it... government help to keep peddling liberalism.
  The NFL schedule comes out this week so maybe we can all make some travel plans to see a road game.  And Patrick Mahomes wins a worldwide sports award. 

   The Royals are in a free fall.  What's worse, this looks very, very real.  We take a look at what the Royals can do to turn it around.  Maybe.
   With a pair of letters to the Star and the racist "Shawnee Indian Mission" School District, KKHI has gone full blown liberal activist.  Will they respond?  And you get to decide if I'd make a good liberal.
   Why in the world do the Dems care about an audit of November's election in the state of Arizona?  They said it was all legit and there's nothing to see.  But judge after judge have said the audit can continue and now there are reports Joe Biden in sending in his Department of Justice.
   Also, a CNN anchor sees his ratings go up while he's on vacation and one easily identifiable physical trait could make you twice as likely to have a real problem with Covid.

   There's no telling what's going to happen in the California runoff election for Governor but it is clear Caitlyn Jenner will be the big story as she's going for gold in the golden state.
   My high school has dropped the name Indians but has picked one that we will prove is more offensive to any honest person with indigenous ancestry.  Does Shawnee Mission North not teach history?
   How out of control is the virtue signaling?  A married couple, outdoors, fully vaccinated kisses each other goodbye for the cameras.  WITH THEIR MASKS ON!  Besides being disgusting, the Vice President is now demonstrating spoiled, pouty behavior you wouldn't tolerate from your toddler. 
   In 2011, the Royals took Bubba Starling with the 5th pick in the draft.  They should have taken his Gardner-Edgerton High School teammate in the 45th round.  John Means tossed a  27 batter no-hitter for the Orioles that pretty much classifies as a perfect game.
   And Peloton stock dropped 15% as it recalls all of it's treadmills.  Unplug yours, never use it again.  Injuries and death are occurring and Peloton didn't want you to know. 

   Sometimes things pop up from the left that surprise the heck out of you and this is one of those weeks.  The cast members of Saturday Night Live have flipped out over Elon Musk hosting this show and are threatening to not work.  Oh, this is good stuff.
   Joe Biden has put an end to a 30 year Memorial Day tradition for Veterans that raises money for charity by coming to DC.  This is pathetic and outrageous.
   We now know what the Royals look like when they go bad and it's really bad.  Nobody knows who pitches when or why in that bullpen and Cleveland is feasting off of it.
   Former Chief Marcus Peters goes off, Lebron gets a free pass today and a college baseball coach has had it with no fans in the stands.

   This episode of KKHI is jam packed starting with my high school, Shawnee Mission North, dumping the mascot Indians.  To demonstrate how absurd all this is, I make the case the three new choices students want are just as offensive.
   Mayor Q invokes dead babies to try to get his way on an issue he tries to simplify but apparently doesn't really understand.
   Joe Biden and Dr. Biden get worked over by 5th graders on a school visit as they were shocked to learn that kids figured out tons of ways to scam schooling while staying home.  It's comical.
   Bill and Melinda Gates are getting divorced after 27 years.  They were so private for so long we wonder if going public and going far left brought them pressures and criticisms that were hard to deal with.
   The Royals have pitching problems now that they are playing division games, it seems a little self scouting is in order.
   And will the NBA ever fine LeBron James?  Now he's calling for league decision makers to be fined because the big baby doesn't like the rules.
