As if the amount of delusions realized by a large portion of the population wasn't bad enough, we have entered full-scale fantasy land at this point. Yes, I am a Chiefs fan. However, I consider myself to be extremely objective in my view of football and most things in general. I have been brainwashed time and time again in my education to look at things logically so here it goes. The following was a quick search done by AI that talks about the perceived preferential treatment by the refs.

Penalty Differential:During the 2024 season, the Chiefs had a penalty yardage differential of plus-20 yards, ranking them 16th in the NFL. This indicates that they were near the middle of the league in terms of penalties called for and against them.

Offensive Holding Penalties:The Chiefs were tied for the most offensive holding penalties in the league, with 31 calls against them, resulting in 292 lost yards. This suggests that referees are not hesitant to penalize the Chiefs for infractions.

Roughing the Passer Calls:Since 2018, Patrick Mahomes has drawn 31 roughing the passer penalties, ranking him 8th among active quarterbacks. In contrast, Josh Allen has drawn 38 such penalties in the same period, ranking 7th. This data indicates that Mahomes does not receive an unusually high number of these calls.

Unnecessary Roughness Penalties:In 2024, the Chiefs benefited from only two unnecessary roughness penalties, tied for the second-fewest in the league. This further challenges the notion of preferential treatment.

So, obviously the facts don't matter to NFL fans, which is fine I guess but it is extremely annoying. There are bad calls made in every single NFL game. The Bills scored a touchdown on a thrown PI flag that was the incorrect call and they only won by 2 points. Is there a huge fuss being made about it? No, because for some reason when it happens to other teams people brush it off as the refs making an honest mistake. Every time there is a questionable call that favors the Chiefs however, there is outrage and the conspiracies start flying. The fact that this fallacy has in some ways tainted the greatness of the Chiefs dynasty is pretty dang frustrating. There aren't cheating scandals like with the Patriots but they are hated by everyone as much as the Patriots ever were and a lot of it is because of a lack of understanding of the nuances of the game and how difficult it is to officiate. Sorry, I had to get all that off my chest! I have more but that is all for now. Grow up! Be better!

Versailles head football and Athletic Director open.

I run a Christian sports equipment ministry called Eternal Pastime. We collect new/used sports equipment and send it across the US and the world to kids who can't afford to buy equipment. I'm a retired baseball coach so our main emphasis has been baseball, but we send a lot of soccer equipment too. Since 1999, we have been able to send equipment to over 45 different countries.

For the last several years EP has been taking baseball players on sports mission trips to Cuba. As our work there has expanded, God has opened the door for my wife and I to lead a volleyball trip to Cuba in the summer of 2019. We are looking to gather donations of shoes, uniforms, balls, and nets to take with us. I ask that when you purge your storeroom of old equipment, consider donating usable stuff to Eternal Pastime.

Contact me at pdudley98@gmail.com if you have any questions or to make arrangements for me to pick it up. For more about EP check us out on facebook or our website: www.eternalpastime.org

Thanks, and good luck this season.

Saw something last night i have never seen before. This game was in double overtime with .1 second left. Crane had the ball down 2 throwing it in from the baseline. As you know with less than .3 you can only tip the ball. No catch and shoot is allowed. Crane threw it in under the basket and a girl in mid air tipped it in and forced triple OT. I have never seen this pulled off in a girls game. Crane went on to win this game even with a few of their starters fouling out. I question the hometown clock keeper as well. They should of let the clock run out on the jump ball call that led to the play. No way the officials would of added more time. I watched this on You tube on Blue Eyes live stream. Worth going on to watch the play.

After 60 years no reason for any of it to remain classified and withheld from the public

but hey trump is working hard to take care of the rich.

And no you're not rich.

1300 illegals arrested by ICE in first three days.
Hundreds returned to Mexican through the Juarez border station.I guess people from Central America will get a noisy plane ride back home

Spencer Ward on the other hand is, his coach and him like to crow but if you back it up it ain't bragging

During my eight years at the Globe, we always referred to the third week of January as Hell Week since all 80 of the high schools in the coverage area (80 boys and 80 girls teams so 160 teams) were all in action at tournaments and we ended up tracking down scores, brackets and boxes on everything from the Liberal Tony Dubray Classic to the Southeast Lancer Classic in Cherokee, Kan., the Chanute Ralph Miller Classic and of course the long running NEO Tournament in Miami, Okla. which has shrunk considerably from being the largest tournament west of the Mississippi at one point in time (90+ teams) down to 32 now.

A rather new tournament up the road in Pittsburg, Kansas has caught my eye this week and I figured if others wanted to post pairings and results under one post for this week, well then here we go:

Bill Hanson Memorial Tournament, Pittsburg High School
Owasso, Okla. (12-3) vs. Wichita West (3-6) -- Owasso No. 1 team in Oklahoma Class 6A
Willard (7-7) vs. Pittsburg (4-5)
Webster Groves (8-3) vs. Branson (6-8)
Topeka Washburn Rural (6-2) vs. Joplin 7-6)

Thursday's Results
Owasso 69, Wichita West 29
Willard 74, Pittsburg 71, this score intrigues me, watched Pittsburg High vs. CJ earlier this year and this is the worst Pittsburg High team I've seen since the 1991-1992 season. Boys basketball in Southeast Kansas is as bad now as I can ever remember it being.
Webster Groves 78, Branson 73, this score caught my attention also
Washburn Rural 65, Joplin 58

Today's Games
Owasso (13-3) vs. Willard (8-7)
Webster Groves (9-3) vs. Washburn Rural (7-2)
Wichita West (3-7) vs. Pittsburg (4-6)
Branson (6-9) vs. Joplin (7-7)

I know not everyone has access to these lists which is why I am posting them out of the kindness of my cold heart! If you guys enjoy them or find them entertaining, give this a like or comment and I will continue posting as we get closer to the draft.

1) Travis Hunter, CB/WR Colorado - Personally I do not understand this ranking and I haven't for awhile. He is not the best CB in the draft, nor the best WR. Since there is basically zero chance he plays both ways, he would need to be clear and away the best CB or WR talent we have seen in awhile which is not the case. Heisman deserving? Yes. Best NFL prospect? No.
2) Abdul Carter, OLB Penn State
3) Mason Graham, DT Michigan
4) Shedeur Sanders, QB Colorado
5) Cam Ward, QB Miami
6) Will Johnson, CB Michigan
7) Tetairoa McMillan, WR Arizona
8) Jalon Walker, LB Georgia
9) Ashton Jeanty, RB Boise State
10) Kelvin Banks Jr., OT Texas
11) Will Campbell, OT LSU
12) Mykel Williams, OLB Georgia
13) Tyler Warren, TE Penn State
14) Josh Simmons, OT Ohio State
15) Colston Loveland, TE Michigan
16) Malaki Starks, S Georgia
17) Tyler Booker, G Alabama
18) Nick Emmanwori, S South Carolina
19) Luther Burden III, WR Missouri
20) Jihaad Campbell, LB Alabama
21) Shemar Stewart, DE Texas A&M
22) Shavon Revel Jr., CB East Carolina
23) Benjamin Morrison, CB Notre Dame
24) Emeka Egbuka, WR Ohio State
25) Walter Nolen, DT Ole Miss

I am a truck driver, I travel from MO to CA to NYC and back hauling fresh produce! While in my travels, I always like to search the random towns I drive through and see how their football programs are. Other than Aledo,Tx, I never really found a team worth following. Going over Donner Pass through Truckee,CA the other day I noticed a buildboard with the football teams photo that said back to back state champs on it so naturally I did some investigating and found something I thought was very interesting! A California high school is a two time defending state champ of Nevada! The schools is about 20miles from Nevada but is in California. They play almost all Nevada schools, are in a Nevada conference, and have won the Nevada state championship two years in a row! Has anyone else ever heard of something like this?

When are we going to start seeing stickers of Trump on gas pumps saying I did that.

1st year with new coach and they’re not playing in the Nixa Tournament which has always been the most competitive tournament on their schedule. Wonder what that’s about.

Looks like they’re trading it in for the St Joe shootout. Wth

It is sad day in the our country that a man has to lose his life for a company as a whole to realize that maybe just maybe they are not doing what is best.

No one would design a system like the one we have. And no one did. It’s a patchwork built over decades," Andrew Witty wrote. "Our mission is to help make it work better."

In a New York Times op-ed published Friday morning, UnitedHealth Group’s CEO addressed boiling frustrations, threats and vitriol aimed at health care insurers, conceding, “We know the health system does not work as well as it should.”
