Kevin Kietzman Has Issues

   Patrick Mahomes put on quite a show in Vegas on Wednesday during "The Match" golf event with three other star quarterbacks.  Swilling beer, getting his swagger on and pretty much owning the place, Mahomes came up a little short but it wasn't for lack of effort.
   The Kansas Jayhawks receive a double dose of great roster news for the upcoming basketball season, we'll explain.
  The Royals now have the worst record in baseball and no solution in site.  A sponsor drops Dustin Johnson for entering a golf tournament in London.  The Johnny Depp verdict is a powerful statement and a reflection of our society correcting it's wild swing to the left.
   Elon Musk has ordered all Tesla workers back to the office... or you're fired.  And the U.S. Census is now admitting it's off by 7% in favor of Democrats.  We discuss what can be done.

   Well, it was bound to happen at the Biden White House as Sleepy Joe and his top staffers are now being accused by by black staffers that the workplace is hostile to African Americans.  Oh, boy, it's on now.
  Several liberal media outlets report Biden is miffed his poll numbers are worse than Trump and even Dr. Jill is chiming in as she says she calls the president really bad names via text.  What the heck is going on?  You gotta hear all this.
   Top Gun: Maverick added the flags of Japan and Taiwan into the movie sometime between the release of the trailer and the release of the movie.  China has noticed and Paramount Pictures does not care.  It appears Tom Cruise is behind the move to remain true to the content.  Amen.
  MLB had a batting practice altercation between players on opposing teams and it's led to a three game suspension and all kinds of details being spilled about why it happened.  You won't believe who's involved... and why.  But it's over money.
   And the LIV Golf League has released 42 names for it's first tournament next week in London.  Surprisingly, Dustin Johnson is in.  Phil Mickelson is not on the list but they are holding a spot for him.  This will be interesting.
 

   After receiving a tip from a listener that Ryan Lefebvre's dad was not only a Major League player and manager, we learn that in the off  season he was a guest actor on shows like Gilligan's Island and Batman in the 1960's.  Say what? This is going to be fun.
   Also, Ryan talks about turning road trips into family time and we discuss how the current crop of Royals position players seem to be ready when they arrive to the majors. 

   This holiday weekend was a tale of two Americas as conservatives flocked to the great outdoors and honor the fallen while liberals line up to give speeches bashing our great land.
   Kansas Senator Roger Marshall has released a video of his recent trip to the southern border that really humanizes the pain and suffering taking place with migrants.  This rookie Senator is making a difference.
   While the Royals continue to try to figure out who they are, a couple other teams are showing fully who they are.  Giants manager Gabe Kapler is now against the anthem, but flip flops all over the place.  And the Tigers are raising money with a "Pride Night" at their ballpark with money going to "genital reassignment surgery" for children.  Maybe we don't have it so bad here.
 
 

   The new movie Top Gun: Maverick is perhaps the only film I've ever seen that can give you goosebumps, make you laugh, make you cry and make you want to jump out of your seat to cheer.  There's really nothing quite like it and it's the perfect Memorial Day release. 
   Travis Kelce makes have what Tyreek Hill makes now and fellow tight end George Kittle thinks that's a joke.  Kelce's response is just top notch, you will love this story.
   Uvalde, Texas has only 7 schools.  But in the first two months of this past school year, those schools were locked down a total of 48 times because of threats of violence.  You have to hear what it's like to go to school there and why this happens all the time.
   And www.Ballardcenter.org is a great organization in Lawrence that provides kids with food and clothing and housing.  But they also work with kids that are residing in families in crisis, including mental health.  This is such an important topic and Becky Price and Kyle Roggenkamp are here to talk about how we can help these kids from spiraling out of control. 

   Its just impossible to believe that Americans are fighting with each other after the tragic shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas.  How shameful it is that we can't all come together after something like this.
   The good news, it's not a real reflection of the majority of us.  As guest speaker at the Olathe Rotary Club luncheon Wednesday, I spoke with and heard from Democrats and Republicans all will to concede on some issues if it can prevent our children from being killed at school.  That's the America I know.  Not the one Obama, O'Rourke  and Biden sullied this week.
   The Royals aren't back home for 8 more days and when they do return, they get the Astros.  Let me be the bearer of bad news, playing at Minnesota, at Cleveland and coming home to Houston is going to be very ugly.
   And it's not getting much play but Jon Gruden's lawsuit against the NFL for being targeted and cancelled just keeps racking up win for the former coach.  This week, a judge sided with Gruden twice and the NFL is going to have to work really hard to keep this from exposing them in a trial.

   The story that unfolded Tuesday in Uvalde, Texas is too familiar.  This was the 27th school in America this semester that has had a shooting take place and it's clear to everyone we have to re-think safety for students in schools.
   More states held primaries this week and new election laws aren't limiting anyone from voting.  Turnout is off the charts in almost every state, especially for Republicans.
  The Royals have now lost 6 in a row and have the worst record in the league.  It's not even Memorial Day and fans are losing interest.
   And the Florida Panthers, in the middle of a playoff series, completely throw in the towel and quit by doing something outrageous.  You have to hear this story.
 

   Yankees slugger Josh Donaldson has been suspended by Major League Baseball after he called White Sox shortstop Tim Anderson a name that Anderson gave to himself.  Confused?  You should be as MLB is  reaching hard to find racism in this one. 
   The Royals have no controversy at all... they're just flat out bad as we expect them to lose every game now.  This is what the end of an era looks like as ownership is all but certain to blow this thing up and start over.  The fans will settle for nothing less.
   Bill O'Reilly told Glenn Beck the biggest problem in America is the border and the people dying from violent crimes and the illegal drugs coming in.  O'Reilly is predicting Joe Biden will be impeached early next year.
   And only Kansas City can lose a big Sylvester Stallone production called, "Kansas City."  We're not kidding but we do ask how losing this production from Hollywood's hottest producer, Taylor Sheridan, is even possible.

   It's a common theme in 2022, somebody who never thought they'd ever be involved in politics, feels a calling.
   Rachl Aguirre is a special education teacher in the Lee's Summit School District and she's challenging everything in the district from her stance to never teach Critical Race Theory and her goal to win a Missouri State Senate seat to write new parents rights laws in her home state.  You can learn more about her campaign at www.rachlformo.com. 
   Aguirre is candid discussing the recent controversy of a new student group at a Lee's Summit High School that is being organized by conservative kids and says educators need to create a safe, welcoming environment that stops singling out groups and pitting them against each other.   

   Clay Travis is a great conservative with a terrible blind spot and a bucket full of hypocrisy.  Travis claims college football is "communism" because it only pays high school recruits a $500,000 package to join a football team and maybe never even play.  Meanwhile, he famously pays his lower level, college graduate staffers peanuts at www.outkick.com because he gives them an opportunity to become famous and build their brand.  Wow. 
   Max Scherzer is exactly the athlete we all want to root for, even after reaching the highest level of his profession and making hundreds of millions of dollars.  He got hurt throwing a pitch this week... and his exit from that game is all you need to know about one this generation's great competitors.
   The city of Lawrence is reeling after the new congressional maps have been drawn in Kansas.  Who knew?  Lawrence is now part of the Colorado border district.  Hysterical.
   And gas companies across America are reconfiguring their pumps to accommodate $10 per gallon fuel.  Just a couple months ago, this was an online spoof... I'll tell you how it became reality.
