Today we bring you a recap of our latest content covering the Chiefs, Royals, local colleges, KC Soccer, and more.
With the draft one week away, we have a poll for you at the bottom of this post as well. We’d love to know what you and your peers think the Chiefs will do in round one on Thursday night!

We are changing the way this raffle is being rewarded. In short, we are going to pave and pay the way for some young journalists to network at NFL draft events. Terez had countless relationships with people at KCSN and our colleagues and we truly believe he would have loved this concept.
They will shadow both local and national media members at these major NFL events, make connections and learn the ins and outs of the business. If you want to know more of the why behind it, watch this video by our CEO, BJ Kissel.
