Kevin Kietzman Has Issues

   Lee Sterling of www.paramountsports.com has a first ever, 50 unit selection in week one of the NFL and handicaps a slew of games for us including the Chiefs-Browns, Tigers-Wildcats and Cyclones-Hawkeyes.
   I also share my thoughts on what Sunday looks and feels like at Arrowhead and more on the matchup.

   It has always looked easy to be a fan of the best team with the best player.  So why do I have such a hard time believing it's just going to be easy for Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs?  He's undefeated in September, undefeated against Cleveland and I'm afraid of this game.  We'll break it down for you.
   The Royals had an epic fail in the 8th inning against the Orioles blowing a 5-0 lead.  By my count, the Royals, defensively, had 6 players out of position when they gave the Orioles 5 outs in one inning.  What the hell is going on?
   The Big 12 is about to add BYU, Houston, Cincinnati and UCF to the league.  Now it's time to relocate the headquarters from Dallas to Overland Park. 
   Reporter Alex Berenson is suing Twitter after they removed a post that turns out to be correct.  Berenson is America's actual authority on Covid-19 and when he tweeted the vax doesn't stop infection or transmission, he was correct.  Now the CDC has changed it's definition of a vaccine and agrees with Berenson.
  Also, Larry Elder gets egged and it's apparently not racist, Kellyann Conway rips the president in a letter and Biden plummets to 39% approval. 

   Just like so many things in life, we are learning to accept Covid and are moving on.  Of course, some industries are relying on millions of people to stay hooked on fear and they are losing.  Americans, by their actions, are clearly saying they are done with Covid.
   It's so great being a Chiefs fan these days as there is never, ever any quarterback drama.  But it's a normal part of the game for most teams that don't have a really good starter.  But one team has a top quarterback and they are fumbling their way through the drama of one of the strangest situations ever.
   Former Jayhawk Paul Pierce is headed into the Hall of Fame this week and has done an interviewing in advance of the big night, blasting his former employer ESPN.  While Pierce is no role model, he gets really high marks here for speaking his mind and telling the truth.  You'll love this.
  Some listeners think I'm slighting Mizzou by suggesting their schedule could lead to a 6-0 start.  So I'm going to try to re-state it more clearly and see if you don't agree.
   Also, props to Erin Andrews...  a Yankees announcer gets rescued from flood waters... and www.redwhiteandbluma.org is coming up September 25 and you may want to be a part of it.

   It was an epic four day weekend of college football fun as KU, KSU and MU all win.  The Cats were the big surprise with their new look defense totally shutting down Stanford but there are plenty of other story lines.  Clemson lost and one coach actually lost his job after one game.  We've got it all.
   The Chiefs got Monday off because they have a great kicker.  This is the kind of story that makes you love your team even more.
   The student body president at KU tweets out, "death to America" and is seemingly going to get away with it.  
   As crowds gather at games and concerts, organic anti Joe Biden chants are breaking out all over the country.  Americans are very, very upset right now.

      Kevin Harlan hates parking garages.  Confused?  Don't be.  We have a clip from our NFL Preview episode for patrons at www.kkhasissues.com that will have you rolling on the floor.  You're going to love this and agree with him.
   And our conversation is with a Kansas City financial planner that switched from investing for others to teaching others how to find their path to financial well being.  We're talking soldiers and NFL players and introduce you to longtime listener and all around good guy, Doug Spencer. 

      The Big 12 looks like it's together and looks like it has a good plan to add four schools.  But you can still see the cracks if you look close enough.  This crack is more like a fault line.  How in the world is Dr. Doug Girod one of two chancellors on the expansion committee when he's presided over the disaster that is KU Athletics?
   There's personal problems, there's technical problems, there's even drinking problems.  But the Royals have a "division" problem as they just lost their 11th straight game to the Indians.  More than anything else they have wrong with them, this has to change fast.
   Abortion has saved Joe Biden's political life.  After being on the ropes with Afghanistan, liberals have found a reason to pull together behind their president again as the state of Texas has saved Biden for now.
  And the KC Star says global warming has caused a hot, wet summer in KC.  Forget that our high temperature was 98 degrees and we got exactly 1 more inch of rain than normal.  These people must be bored.

   Lee Sterling of www.paramountsports.com is a national handicap champion and on air partner of mine for 20 years.  This is an opening week, college football bonus from Lee as he discusses a few Big 12 games against the spread. 

   Watching Joe Biden stumble around, actually unfit for office, proves that while America is great... there is a real weakness in a democracy.
   The name Black Bob is officially ok to use as the Kansas City Star points out it was the name of the man who led the Shawnee "Indians" in the Olathe area.  Wait, I thought "Indian" had been cancelled by the Star?  And Black Bob is ok?  So hard to keep score on these things.
   Even honey badgers get Covid as Tyrann Mathieu tests positive.  Forget football, you fools, let's pray that he's going to be ok and live a normal life someday.
   The Big 12 releases a statement of solidarity that is lame.  If they really want to make a statement, we have a perfect suggestion.

   College Football week one is here and Stan Weber previews the Wildcats and Stanford battling at Jerry World in Dallas.  The Lance Liepold era begins at KU against South Dakota while Eliah Drinkwitz has his first non conference game at Mizzou.
   Scott Frost is melting on the hot seat at messy Nebraska and #3 Clemson faces #5 Georgia this week.  It's game week on KKHI.

   It's time to become a fan of Urban Meyer as he refreshingly speaks his mind.  The latest?  Meyer says of course the Covid vax is a factor in whether to keep a player or not, it's the NFL's silly rules.  Now the NFLPA is investigating the Jacksonville coach.
   The Chiefs cuts didn't turn a lot of heads, but they did do something with a player they've never done before.
   A pair of baseball greats have been sent home by MLB Network because they haven't gotten jabbed.  What's going to happen when they need them in the broadcast booth for the playoffs next month?
   Joe Biden's victory dance had a massive contradiction in it that a high school debate teacher would grade with an F.
   And an Oklahoma Congressman is missing after taking a pile of cash towards Afghanistan to hire a helicopter and private help to get an American woman and her four kids out of the war torn country.
