We've got a couple hot news stories for you before we get to sports where the Royals finally get a day off after finishing 9-11 in a ridiculously hard stretch of their schedule.  It sure looks better going forward.

   Also, we are encouraging you to support the Team Kietz Whiffle ball squad for www.thebattlewithin.org by going to our fundrasing page www.bit.ly/teamkietzman and making a donation.  We are currently at zero!  Thanks for considering.

   Then, Stan Weber joins us to preview the Chiefs, Cats, Hawks and Tigers in one terrific Football feast.
