Kevin Kietzman Has Issues

Who even knew T-Mobile still had 3500 employees at 119th and Nall in Overland Park at what used to be the Sprint Campus? Well, the Royals now controll it all and T-Mobile says the owners are not allowing T-Mobile to stay after their lease expires in 2029. We all know what that means. Trump's talking affordability as drivers line up around the country for really, really cheap gas. The J6 bomber, Brian Cole Jr, is a bit of a gender twisted man as he spent hours and hours online as a "Brony." You won't believe what this is. Consumers complain Instacart is gouging them, I have a solution for them. The Royals get a rare off season win in the draft lottery as the draw for position moved the team up 10 spots in the draft. What a gift! Philip Rivers is back as he signs on to the practice squad for the Colts. Oregon's QB is threatening to not play in the college playoff first round game. Big 12 commish Brett Yormark blasts the AD at Notre Dame. Troy Aikman cuts off UCLA and Bill Self names his MVP so far this season. Our Final Final is what Amelia Earhart's mom thought happened to her daughter in 1937.

First thing up today is your invitation to join the Kietzman's at the North Pole/South Pole Christmas experience on December 18. We'll start in the 5:00pm hour and enjoy the fun until 8:00. We are taking reservations... just send yours via email to info@thejewelkc.com. Let's do this! The J6 pipe bomber was know to the FBI in 2021 according to documents from the "select committee." What a surprise. Sports media guru Dave Portnoy has the worst meltdown yet and is now apologizing for ranting Raiders coach Pete Carroll should be murdered. This is ugly. A sold out group in Leawood seems to agree the Royals are great for pretty much anyone else except, of course, Leawood. Mizzou coach Eli Drinkwitz spits facts about Bowl Games while ISU's AD has the best commentary yet on the financial situation for athletic departments paying players these days. Will the Royals make moves at the Winter Meetings? And Trump raises a fortune for the Kennedy Center.

Sunday night's awful performance against the Texans at Arrowhead will be the game remembered as the end of an era. The Chiefs have had an amazing decade of football but it's obviously time to re-think everything. This season is toast. We know the teams coming to Kansas City for the World Cup in June and we're pretty sure you can only find on of the eight on a map. The College Football Playoff is set and it's leading to the demise of the bowl system. Everyone is turning down post season games now. Trump is furious that Zelensky hasn't even read the peace plan he has offered to end the war with Russia. National Parks "free entry" days steal headlines that look bad for the President. And a saloon owner is now getting death threat over his free beer offer.

It's not a conspiracy if its true and what do you know, the Biden administration never wanted to find the J6 pipe bomber. This is exactly what all us conspiracy folks thought. Who could have guessed it? Ilhan Omar pokes at ICE, this can't end well for her voters. Another drug boat is vaporized as Dems keep defending the terrorists. Jackson County's new exec is working on the tax problems big time. The Chiefs say they are having their best practices of the year this week and I'll tell you why I hate hearing it. The Border War heats up Sunday at T-Mobile as everyone waits to see if Darryn Peterson plays. Collin Klein is announced as the new coach at KSU. The World Cup draw is here and Lee Sterling of www.paramountsports.com has your point spread picks.

Chris Klieman retired from coaching football Wednesday after 7 years at Kansas State, a whole bunch of wins and a Big 12 title. So why was this all so somber and strange? Even AD Gene Taylor came in after Klieman spoke (and took no questions) and started talking about retirement himself. Reports everywhere confirm that Collin Klein is the next head coach but Taylor said he hasn't talked to the former KSU star and doesn't have his phone number. Stan Weber will try to clear this up for us. Then, it's all Chiefs and Texans and the AFC playoff picture with Stan. Our Final Final is the opposite of "Play Ball!"

What an incredible cabinet meeting Monday for President Trump tackling everything from narco boats to SNAP benefits. But to focus was MONEY. We are here to detail what Trump Accounts can be for you, how taxes may be eliminated for millions and how we get our money back and punish Somalians ripping us off. Here we go! In sports, UCONN played elite defense at Allen Field House in the second half and comes from behind to beat KU. The Jayhawks, again, didn't have their star freshman. Mizzou meets KU Sunday in KC after falling on the road at Notre Dame. This was a story of not playing well enough defensively. The man that broke into a gated neighborhood and hopped Travis Kelce's fence gets a slap on the wrist in Leawood. Who'd have guessed? Analyst Jeff Saturday says the dumbest thing ever about Patrick Mahomes. The NFL announces a singer for the black national anthem at the Super Bowl. A staffer at the golf course that hosted the Ryder Cup blasts back at whiny American golfer Justin Thomas in a perfect way. And Lane Kiffin's daughter is bringing something special with her from Ole Miss to LSU.

Kristi Noem posted some serious truths and tough words on Monday that take a stance on illegal aliens like no other. It's beautiful and this is her best way to communicate. At the same time, a senator from Ohio has a perfect plan for American citizenship that should be passed as law ASAP. A Trump fan has a great idea for him to end all this gender ideology nonsense. Elton John says Trump could be on of the GOATS of the White House if he does one thing. A listener sends an email in that is just wonderful. In sports, Andy Reid gives up one of the most bizarre quotes ever while former KC quarterback Alex Smith drops truth bombs about this year's team. KSU basketball coach Jerome Tang already seems to be a dead man walking in Manhattan losing his third straight with millions of dollars worth of players. Social media influencers were all over KC Monday for the start of sports wagering in Missouri, golfer Justin Thomas is still whining about the Ryder Cup and two legendary broadcasters that have never called a basketball game together are about to.

It wasn't the perfect Sunday for the Chiefs but something did happen for Kansas City that provides a sliver a daylight on a path to the playoffs. Coach Lane Kiffen leaves Ole Miss for LSU even as his team is entering the College Football Playoff. He's now the bad guy and I don't like him much either. But he's clearly not the problem. We'll explain what is. Mizzou and KSU are headed to bowl games after finishing their regular seasons, KU is not. Lee's Summit is headed to the state football championship after starting the season 0-4. Sports betting is now live in Missouri. President Trump eyes Venezuela as he works toward peace in Ukraine. A former reporter in KC goes overboard on Pete Hegseth and a saloon in Idaho is offering free beer for a month if you help local authorities round up illegal aliens.

In many ways it was a somber holiday after an Afghan national goes crazy in DC and kills a member of the National Guard and leaves another in serious condition in the hospital. This all has a very hollow feeling to it as we have allowed our country to become something it shouldn't be. The Chiefs fall to the Cowboys and refs in Dallas as the playoff picture becomes dire for Kansas City. This is becoming a season to forget. And Mizzzou coach Eli Drinkwitz is handed another pile of cash as rumors flew he may be looking at other jobs. We explain why this is crazy.

It's a great time to be reflecting and thankful for what we have living in the greatest country in the history of man. We'll share a few thoughts. You sure wouldn't think dems are very thankful as universities are promoting Thanksgiving as a "day of mourning" and a mission to "decolonize" the holiday. This is happening while their leaders are trying to derail our military. Unbelievable. Press secretary Karoline Leavitt has some family drama going on as her nephews mom is being processed to get deported after being here illegally for over 25 years. We have the story of the very beginning of the Plaza lights in KC. KU rolls Syracuse in the Players Era tourney and will play for big money Wednesday night. KSU coach Jerome Tang apologizes again and already for being an unprepared, bad coach. When will it end? An ESPN announcer makes an outrageous statement about a backup player being the most powerful black man since Obama. Isiah Pacheco is back for the Chiefs Thursday and Lee Sterling has our point spread picks. Our Final Final is a blast from the past that has a new pitch to sell. You may just say, WOW.

It's a holiday week and while it sounds silly hear a transportation secretary ask Americans to dress a little nicer and be a little kinder to one another at the airport, maybe he makes a good point. Another activist judge tosses out cases Trump's DOJ brings, this time for the most ridiculous reason ever. It has nothing to do with merits of the case. A senator from Arizona is now making threats of retribution on anyone going after Senator Mark Kelly for imploring military members to ignore orders. A small town in Kansas plays a big part in the Macy's Day Parade in New York. My man Chris at www.bstock.net send me a gem of a post on how the Chiefs can win the division AND did a really sweet thing for my mom. KU beats Notre Dame without star player Darryn Peterson. K-State is at Indiana Tuesday while Mizzou gets a gimme. Sophie Cunningham backs up Michael Porter Junior's comments about 8th grade boys being able to beat a WNBA team and a man known as "Russian Popeye" has a huge problem on his hands.

The old adage "stats are for losers" almost applied to the Chiefs against the Colts except for one big, big thing. The Chiefs won. If you looked at all the numbers, this should have been a KC blowout as the defense was just spectacular against the best runningback in the NFL. But it's the same troubles that have plagued this team all year that put the Chiefs in a really tough spot. Penalties, sloppy turnovers and bad special teams. Take the win, clean up the rest for the home stretch. It looks like it actually got tougher to make the playoffs as all three teams at 7-4, in the playoffs, have wins over KC too. That means the Chiefs are two games back of all of them. It was a bummer of a college Saturday but nobody had it worse than KSU coach Chris Klieman who just lost it in his post game news conference, literally crying and asking for respect. Oh my. Trump wants to fix up Joint Base Andrews including their golf courses. Does this guy miss anything? Wait until you hear who he's asking for help. Also, Elon Musk nails it when it comes to our homeless problem in America, the AP is suing Trump over the Gulf of America and one of our sponsors is a very proud dad as his daughter's college volleyball team wins a national title.

The shutdown and more has put President Trump, for the first time, on a little thin ice with some of his base. It's all about the economy and he seems to know it. Now it needs to work. A famous burger chain from the midwest has a franchiser declaring bankruptcy that on the surface doesn't make sense. Tom Brady trolls Chiefs haters with his latest power poll. Lee Sterling is here with point spread picks and you absolutely have the hear the story about our Song of the Week artist and an unbelievable song that will get you thinking. You probably have never heard of this guy.

You know one of our pillars at KKHI for yasty content is when people actually say things. Not political lies or throwing mud... it's when you get something from the inside that you may have thought was true but didn't know for sure. We've got a couple of those today. First, a billionaire confirms something we've all thought about how things are inside Trump's White House. The other, well, it's Gracie Hunt. She has a few words for the Commissioner of the NFL and we LOVE it. For the first time in Patrick Mahomes' Hall of Fame career, he's playing a regular season game that is a "must win." It's true. This Sunday's game against the Colts is almost certainly the difference between turning the corner and making a playoff run that scares the hell out of the AFC, or sliding into the ditch and calling 911. Stan Weber will join us to discuss a matchup he says is really hard for the Chiefs. We'll talk about 2PM's overthrows on deep balls and 4th quarter failures and a really rough schedule this weekend for our college teams. Our Final Final involves bacon that's not for eating. Hmmmmm.

If you saw pictures or videos of the elegant dinner Tuesday night at the White House all you could think is President Trump is making dinners great again. Oh, and we need a new ballroom at the White House. Wait until you hear this guest list. A listener sent an incredible email about what he sees every day in the trucking industry and you will be shocked. Marco Rubio announces a whopping number of VISA's he's revoked because people come here and do bad things. In sports, KU played Duke hard and tough but just didn't have enough without star guard Darryn Peterson. But it left you asking the question if KU is better than Duke if they did have him. A survey in Kansas regarding new ballparks is a total waste of time. HOA's near the 119th and Nalls site seem to think they have some power in preventing the Royals from building. The computer says the Chiefs are 50/50 to make the playoffs, I'll take the YES side of that bet and we explain why. Callaway sells Top Golf and our Final Final is an online trend of how to get the best of Porch Pirates.

Illegal aliens committing crimes has reached critical mass all over America. After an ICE operation in Charlotte, 21,000 students call in sick for school. 140 Venezuelan gang bangers are caught in a sex ring in Texas and ICE rounds up 10 bad guys in Kansas. Then, the cherry on top. We have an alien terrorist from Uzbekistan driving through Kansas with a Pennsylvania CDL license. What could possible go wrong with a terrorist driving an 18 wheeler? So what do we do in KC? We rally up to release the Epstein files from decades ago. What a joke. KC car break ins continue to grow in Westport and so do thefts. In the aftermath of the Chiefs loss, did you notice all the haters that are out celebrating and bashing the team? But there is one thing NONE of them will say and it's hilarious. KU plays Duke Tuesday and they are a massive underdog without Darryn Peterson. KSU and MU win Monday. Stephen A. Smith says politicians from one party won't go on his podcast and Marco Rubio warns World Cup fans about coming to America.

The Chiefs have gone from the team that almost lost to the team that almost won. It's pretty obvious watching these guys that the game is almost always more important to their opponent than it is for KC. If that doesn't change, this season is a train wreck. But while Denver won its Super Bowl on Sunday at Mile High, there's just too many games left to count out the Chiefs. If they find the fire, they will make it in easily and could be really hard to knock out. If they keep up with the slop, this season could be over in 10 days. KU hoops is suffering the modern drama of paying a great player that wants the money but doesn't want to be there. It's now obvious to anyone watching that Darryn Peterson, his agent, his team and likely his family are taking Bill Self for a ride. This is why older coaches are retiring. The players are in control now. It's a big week in DC as Putin says he wants to meet with Trump again. Same for Maduro in Venzuela. Trump has ordered the Epstein files released and we are about to get a huge change with the SNAP program. The Cleveland Clinic jabbed up thousands of employees with a flu shot last year and found some incredible results. Spoiler alert... don't get the shot unless your doctor tells you to. A midwest city is going to charge you a fee to work your car accident and a rock star obliterates the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame calling it "shameful."

Homeland security is now taking aim at the non citizen mayor of Coldwater, KS for voting illegally and criminal convictions in his past. Hey, they told us this never happens. If he's been a fraud for 40 years in Kansas, how many more are there nationwide. We have a lot of work to do. Right in the middle of an interview segment bashing President Trump and Jeffrey Epstein, the host reads a legal disclaimer prepared by lawyers. You have to hear this. KC has federal money in fund to buy new busses but they won't be purchasing. They need it to operate during the World Cup instead. It's crazy how they are stealing our money to host this event. In sports, I have a bold prediction about the New England Patriots, Lee Sterling of www.paramountsports.com is here with his picks for MU, KSU and the Chiefs and our song of the week is a wonderful history lesson you will enjoy.

President Trump signed the continuing CR Wednesday night ending our "national nightmare" and "suffering" that we all endured. Please. Spare me the hype. Roll up your sleeves, work on everything that's broken and get back to us when you're making progress. Sharice Davids, of course, voted NO to opening the government. Wait until you hear why. The US Ag secretary is promising huge announcements next week to clean up SNAP funding as she calls it "perhaps the most corrupt and dysfunctional program in American history." Pat McAfee is still upset people reacted poorly to his interview with Trump. Then, college sports business is bugging millions of us in a real way. We ask business man and college sports expert Stan Weber what he would do to kill the chaos. And we spend a good deal of time on the Chiefs/Broncos game Sunday that suddenly looks like the fork in the road for the Chiefs. Our Final Final is a great mortgage idea that takes days, not 50 years.

There's a shocking piece of journalism at the Daily Caller website as we have learned the Chinese own a 27 acre trailer park that shares a fence with Whiteman Air Force base in Missouri. Are you kidding me? This is a huge story and even bigger problem. Kansas Senator Roger Marshall says he and the GOP will have a new health care plan by Christmas. Spoiler alert, it also sounds like a big government handout. Speaking of handouts, a journalist in Ukraine has found stacks and stacks of unsealed, stolen cash from the Kansas City Federal Reserve. Zelensky is literally stealing from us, we explain how. Elon Musk sums up the sad state of affairs of taxation in America in one brilliant post. Pat McAfee gets President Trump on his show and then tries to apologize to liberal media for it. Lame. Missouri Governor Mike Kehoe didn't take long to respond to our report that the Chiefs are talking to NASCAR and the state of Kansas regarding land acquisition at the speedway. Kehoe says he can put a fabric roof on cables above Arrowhead and the Chiefs have no comment. KU star Darryn Peterson has officially turned the Jayhawks into an NBA team. He makes millions, he takes games off when he doesn't want to play and they are coming to T-Mobile Center in KC. We finally have an NBA team! And our Final Final is a pair of sexy bridesmaids.
