Sports rants, observations, comments
Eight straight wins, capped off by an 11-7 sweep-clincher over Detroit this weekend. For a few days, Kauffman Stadium felt like 2024 again, back before this team apparently forgot how to win a baseball game for four straight months. Here’s the number that doesn’t make the highlight package: 58-74. That’s the record after the streak, …
Bunting is having a real moment in Major League Baseball this year, and I hate that I have to admit some of it is actually working. As a lifelong Royals fan, I’ve spent years watching a perfectly good rally get strangled because someone in the dugout decided a free out was a good trade. So …
The US Open kicked off this week, and buried in the schedule is a number that stopped me mid-scroll: the singles champion walks away with $5.5 million. Not for a season. Not for a career. For two weeks of tennis. The total prize pool this year is $108 million, up 20% from last year and …
Somebody buys a sports team, and within a few years the city is somehow paying for their stadium. That’s not a conspiracy theory, it’s just how the math works out almost every time. A guy worth a few billion dollars buys an NFL or NBA franchise, then turns around and tells the local government that …
Spoiler alert: NO. Okay, maybe they aren’t terrible, but they aren’t good. There is some talent there, we do see flashes of promises but can this organization, this leadership get the most of it? Again, spoiler alert NO. Get my full rant (maybe more like scattered thoughts) in the video below….. And because the end …
The Kansas City Chiefs traded Tyreek Hill to the Miami Dolphins in March of 2022. I’ll get right to the point. I love this trade. As a fan of the past, sure it hurts my heart but as a fan of the future this was a fantastic deal. Find out why I think so in …
If you’ve seen my other videos on the Chiefs 2022 NFL Draft this post will be no big surprise to you, I loved this draft for the Chiefs. Depth, talent and hit all key needs – especially the secondary. All of this with guys that are very cap friendly for 4-5 years. Without further delay, …
If you saw my other videos on the Chiefs 2022 Draft Round 1 and the Chiefs 2022 NFL Draft Rounds 2-3 you know I said the Chiefs could not do anything on Day 3 to ruin an already great draft. They did not. Not even close. Their 2022 NFL Draft just kept getting better!! Round …
Keep on keepin’ on! Another outstanding day for the Kansas City Chiefs. Three more impact players that will contribute to this football team right away. Skyy Moore – 2 Y’s, love it! This can go it and has big hands – this could end up being the steal of the draft. Bryan Cook has great …
For me, it’s simple. It’s an A. A solid A. Not quite an A+ because of short arms and trading up but that’s nitpicking. 2 biggest needs addressed – that’s a win. And there are plenty of WRs left in the draft, the Chiefs will take one, or two – maybe 3 but DE and …
Does 270 = 270?The math says yes. The course tells a different story. Here’s my 2 cents on why those records should not be compared and not be considered equal accomplishments.
Nearly 5 years to the day after the game, I laid in bed awake with this in my head. Not the first time. This time I got up and typed it out. A few months after that I recorded it. I was surprised how often I got choked up, even on the 3rd attempt. It …
