KC Confidential

Well, football freaks it’s been a tough start for our local ball clubs…

The Chiefs, as we talked about last year and early this season, seem to have quit on their coach and general manager. Not to mention the fans. Watching them in interviews you see no confidence and it seems as though the season is already over.

Here’s their chance.

The New Orleans Saints are also a head case. Sure they have the Brees, but we’ve got Matt THE FRANCHISE Cassel. Damn.

Is his house up for sale yet? Continue reading →

I remember when Rock was young, me and Suzie had so much fun, holding hands and …

Well, Rock isn’t young anymore, and if you’re like me and stood in those large lines to watch Jimi Hendrix, Cream or the Rolling Stones, did it ever cross your mind that one day in the not too distant future rock would fade out?

Never even crossed my mind back then.

Oh sure, there’re still young rock bands around and we hear most of the older bands on some radio stations. Like the biggest rock station this side of New York City, The Rock 98.9.  But nobody really has managed to take the place of all those household name groups – not even Kid Rock (who ain’t no kid anymore).

Now back to the future… Continue reading →

Guess who’s back in the news?

After a long absence Monica Lewinsky is out pitching a new tell-all book to New York publishers. Likely it will go for several million dollars. Those celebrity scandals just kill don’t they?

Gee, I wonder what the book will be about? Where she and President Bill Clinton did it, when she and Bill did it and how she and Bill did it.

Shocker.

Bill Clinton is arguably the most popular President of the past 100 years, save John Kennedy and maybe, just maybe, Ronald Reagan. Some would say he’s better liked than both. Continue reading →

Former Super Bowl quarterback Steve Young said it best last night after Monday Night Football...

“The NFL doesn’t care what you think…they don’t care…you will watch this game no matter what! They don’t care about player safety, never did…they don’t care.”

Wow, gusty speech.

Young could be fired for saying that on national TV. Except for the fact that everyone agreed with him, including Jerry Rice. Steve Young is on the money they all said.

THE NFL  DOESN’T CARE. Continue reading →

Well for once all of the media that matters said the same thing today…

FIRE SCOTT PIOLI.

I looked at the Kansas City Star this morning and both columnists, Kent Babb and Sam Mellinger echoed what I wrote yesterday. This team goes nowhere with its current general manager, Scott Pioli.

And no, I don’t think they read my story and got the idea from me. Both guys are in a bad spot, as are the radio sports shows. The Chiefs spend money with all these outlets – big money. Just as important, all these folks need access to players, coaches and even the big guy, Pioli. With the exception of Babb, who is bailing on the Star very soon.

So it’s not that easy to call for the King’s firing just two games into the regular season.

This after four years of Carl Peterson Part Two. Continue reading →

The Chiefs now officially THE WORST TEAM IN THE NFL and are unwatchable…

Back-to-back blowouts. Crushed again. They’re worse than last year’s terrible team. Remember this, “Man we got our guys back, Eric Berry and Jamaal Charles, the tight end nobody gives a crap about. All that noise.

Remember, I was the guy bringing you the bad news early: the Chiefs stink again.

I was watching the destruction of a poorly coached, poorly led Chiefs joke of a football team IN the fourth quarter AND THE game had already ended in the first few minutes. Matt THE FRANCHISE had been sacked about six times and we had a quarter to go and were trailing 35-3. Continue reading →

Turn out the lights, the party’s over…

As of today the President Barack Obama has a commanding lead to be re-elected. Get your anger out now because it looks like it’s OVER. The President has a huge lead according to USA Today and the Gallup Poll. It’s 50% for Obama and 44% for Mitt Romney.

Wow, that’s a big gap to cover in five or six weeks.

Can Romney come back? Not likely. Continue reading →

Well, we all now know that last week was a great start for your guy, me…

And a huge thank you to the Kansas City Chiefs for my huge winning bet in Las Vegas. However I’m now 4-3 overall for the first two weeks, so lets see if I can improve upon that number.

It’s no secret that our local football teams appear to be the not-ready-for-prime-time players.  As of today, only Kansas State fields a squad that looks like a post season football program. Kansas, Missouri and our Chiefs are barely worth watching, but obviously things can change.

I know, it seems like I hate the Chiefs, but I really don’t.

I just call them as I see them, no sugar added.

Same as with our loser Kansas City Royals baseball team. Maybe one day things will be brighter. Until that day I’ll continue to be disgruntled with these two horrible franchises that don’t seem to care much about their GREAT FANS. Fans who’ve waited decades for a local team that can merely contend for a title.

Now on to the weekend… Continue reading →
