Kevin Kietzman Has Issues

   The Chiefs walkoff thriller over the Chargers is such an instant classic, I get carried away in the analysis and forget there are actually sponsors to take care of on this podcast!  The Chiefs were simply breathtaking entertainment Thursday night in the Entertainment capitol of the world.  This is how the West is won.
   The Cleveland Browns have a virus problem with their Quarterbacks and they are livid at the NFL rules changes.
   College football signing day was this week and it created some raised eyebrows with players getting paid.
   And www.paramountsports.com has KSU and MU Bowl picks and this weekend's NFL.

   It seems impossible, but Jackson Mahomes is once again a big distraction for the Kansas City Chiefs.  This attention seeking, spoiled brother of the star QB is now the target of a local restaurant that has just blistered Jackson on Facebook, for good reason.
   The story broke as the Chiefs were traveling to LA for the Game of the Year against the Chargers.  And KC is without some key players.  We break it down.
   My favorite KU player, Devonte' Graham hit what is maybe the shot of the decade or century in the NBA Wednesday night and credits his time in Lawrence.  You gotta hear this.
  Prime Time Deion Sanders has landed the #1 football recruit in America to play at Jackson State and the news and circumstances around it are really, really strange.
   Joe and Jill botch their assignment consoling victims of hurricanes and terrorism by bringing up the vaccine.  So classless.
   And some war hero veterans are arrested in Queens, NY for not having vax cards.

   Joe Biden accidentally slipped up and said the truth.  In a speech with a prompter, Biden goofed up and says it's not whether democrats are eligible to vote, it's "who counts the vote" that matters most.  Are you kidding me?  All other crazy dem control issues we have now are just trickle down from this.
   Elon Musk is attacked by Senator Liz Warren and in classic Trump fashion he hits back 10 times as hard.  Musk used to be a hero to the left but they've now figured out he's more conservative capitalist than socialist and they are freaking out.
   Michelle Tafoya has been AWOL from NBC's Sunday Night Football since speaking the truth on the View.  Her crime?  She said there is no slavery in the NFL.  Wow.
   And the Chiefs have a couple Covid cases and it's mind boggling for fans to try to figure out what the rules are and whether Chris Jones or Josh Gordon will play against the Chargers.  This is so bad for the NFL.
 

   Kansas City Star columnist Sam Mellinger is leaving to join the Royals as Vice President of Communications.  A typical reaction may be that it seems a little slimy to have a journalist selected by a team but that's far from the case here.  Mellinger has been tougher on the Royals than anyone through the years and they recruited him for this position out of respect.  This story has many layers.
   Over at Arrowhead, defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo is feeling so cocky about his defense, he's pointing out to the media things he's not good at.  When that's happening, you know he's a confident coach.
   And another news crew has been targeted by criminals in the bay area as these thieves no they will not get locked up long even if they get caught.  It's suddenly very dangerous to be in the media.
 

   Was the 48-9 beatdown of the Raiders the single best game the Chiefs have played under Andy Reid?   If it isn't, it's in the discussion.  This was as complete as it gets in the NFL as the Chiefs just flat out did everything right.  And that's scary for the rest of the league.
   Stan Weber is here to talk about the game, the division and the AFC Playoff picture.
   Also, what exactly was in that game Saturday for Mizzou?  Yes, the hype was fun and the scene was wild for a few minutes.  But there was no payoff for anyone anywhere except Jayhawk fans in Kansas City.  The Border War was more like the Border Surrender. 

   It's the most lopsided outcome in series history as the Chiefs beat the Raiders 48-9.  The Chiefs did everything right, the Raiders did everything wrong.  Simply glorious.

Spencer Kietzman is back for the weekend edition of KKHI. It wasn't that long ago we were asking the question if the Chiefs would even make the playoffs. Now, the one seed and first round bye is in play for KC. K-State has a stand-alone bowl game right before the College Football National Championship game, and MU's Tyler Badie earns unanimous All-SEC honors. Riley Gates of 24/7 Sports joins. 

   Enes Kanter's escape to freedom has been known for awhile but it is just now registering with people how dangerous his journey has been.  The Boston Celtics star is now America's biggest critic of China and real oppression and social injustice around the world.  As we watch Jussie Smollett convicted of faking hate crimes in an America that is as close to perfect as it gets on this planet, Kanter reminds us there is big trouble outside our borders. 
   Patrick Mahomes is no longer an elite quarterback and somebody had to say it.  He can regain it and it could be spectacular, but right now, he looks like the sloppy college quarterback 11 teams passed on.  It's unthinkable he is the 18th rated passer this year among starters in the NFL.  We preview the Chiefs and Raiders and two struggling quarterbacks.
  And Lee Sterling is here from www.paramountsports.com with our weekend picks and a holiday special for you.

   One has to feel bad that Kansas City Mayor Quinton Lucas has worked  hard to climb the ladder in DC and become well known for future elections, only to get disrespected.  So you'll have to excuse me if I feel a little sorry for this hard working opportunist when the President forgot his name during a bumbling speech about nothing in KC on Wednesday.
   Some incredible new polling has been released that shows Hispanic voters are now evenly split between Republicans and Democrats.  While another poll shows college students that are Democrats are nearly 8 times more biased than their fellow students that are Republicans.
   And even liberal Bob Costas is piling on the NBA for it's hypocrisy supporting the America sucks crowd and it's silence on China.
 

   It may not be a great game Saturday at Allen Field House but the listening to KU and MU fans climb all over each other this week is a blast.  I've got an email from a Mizzou fan... and a suggestion... that is off the charts fantastic.
   The "female" swimmer at Penn wins an event by 38 seconds because she's a biological male.  This is the worst discrimination against women in America that I've ever seen.
   A Ryder Cup champion golfer pees his pants and passes out on a British Airways flight after allegedly fondling a stranger's breasts and is arrested on arrival.  Uh oh.
   A new tv series is coming to Paramount Plus called "Kansas City" and you won't believe who it stars.  It's going to be a massive hit.
   And Clint Switzer from www.starcademedia.com is here to talk Chiefs and Border War on KKHI.
