Summary

The Royals got a great win in Boston on Wednesday night, incredibly, it's their 10th straight win in the final game of a series.  The whole thing was caught on film as a popular CBS television crime drama was filming at Fenway for an episode this fall.    The NFL coughing up the NFL Network for 10% equity in ESPN is one of the great deals of all time.  The NFL Network lost a lot of money over the years and now they have their best products on a bigger platform to make even more money.  It's controversial to say the least.   Patrick Mahomes says he has to be better this year for the Chiefs to succeed and I agree.  The real question is how serious he is about it.  Is this training camp lip service or does Mahomes really think he has to get better?    Putin has indicated he's ready to end the war in Ukraine as Trump is about to level incredible financial hardship on Russia.  There's reportedly a summit for next week.    Meanwhile, in DC, Trump is calling in the National Guard to make the capitol safe again.    An illegal alien in KCK reached fame as part of a Netflix series in 2019 and now he says he can't take it here anymore and is self deporting.  You have to hear these details and why this is so perfect.    The New Zealand Air Force saves three Americans in Antarctica and Trump is using his paycheck to remodel the White House historical association gift shop.

We begin with sports news today because there's a pretty big story brewing between the NFL network and ESPN as it appears there is a merger happening

0:21.2

where the NFL will own 10% of ESPN in exchange for NFL network and some of the

0:29.0

things going on there. Before we get to that big story and what it means and what the reaction is

0:33.9

and how complicated this will be for you to watch the NFL, perhaps, and see the

0:40.4

games, not Chiefs games, but to see other games and what may be changing.

0:43.7

We start with the Royals who've done an amazing thing.

0:46.4

For the 10th series in a row, the Royals have won the series finale.

0:53.3

Now, many of these were series.

0:55.6

They've had five of these series that were three-game series,

0:58.1

where the series was tied 1-1, and the Royals won the final game to win the series.

1:02.8

That was not the case with the Red Sox game on Wednesday night,

1:06.2

where the Royals win 7-3.

1:08.0

The Royals had lost the first two games in the series,

1:10.0

and you can pretty much put

1:11.8

a bow on this by saying it's more important to win the last game of the series when you've

1:16.0

lost the first two than any other series that you play, especially in the spot the Royals are

1:21.5

in where the season is whittling away, and the Royals continue to be four games back of a

1:26.4

wild card spot to make the

1:28.2

postseason. So let's not underplay this. This was a big win for the Royals. They were down two
