USS Lincoln Turns Political, New Press Sec Short List, Mahomes Won't Play, Self Opens Up About Heart Attack, Boys of '76 Were Missouri's Best Ever

from Kevin Kietzman Has Issues · host Kevin Kietzman

   What a shame the status of the brave men and women that serve on the USS Lincoln near Iran has turned into pure politics.  It stinks they've been at sea for 260 days, that's true.  It's also true this is what your sign up for and this is nowhere near the same as being on a battleship in World War II.  Now the left is using this ship as a political weapon against Republicans and that makes them the lowest of the low.    There's a short list for new press secretary, we've got some thoughts.    Andy Reid says almost nothing about what the plan is for Saturday's first pre season game other than Justin Fields will start at QB and Patrick Mahomes won't play.      Bill Self opens up and says he thought doctors would tell him he had to retire because he had a "heart attack, a pretty significant one."    And the Boys Of '76 were the Center High School boys basketball team 50 years ago... 29-0 and the greatest team in Missouri high school history.  We chat with the author of the book about this amazing team that won every single game by double digits.  Michael Welsh went to Center and saw every second of it first hand and as the team has its reunion weekend, he shares his thoughts on his book dedicated to the amazing season.
