Summary

It's tax day and for most people, that's not a big deal. But what about college athletes now getting paid big money in some cases, how will they handle this system? Here's a clue... most won't handle it well. Former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey torches the board he sits on and is basically saying they are ruining the company. Sounds like @jack wants his 38% profit from Elon Musk and a wave goodbye to the company he co-founded. I can relate. The Royals are 3-5 and will have two days off in a row because of weather Sunday, but improved pitching is the nice headline for me. A college wide receiver visited KC this weekend, is it a smoke screen for something better? And Donnie Osmond is part of a really, really great birthday surprise for somebody you know.

0:00.0	Window World, the official Windows of the Kansas City Chiefs, presents Kevin Keatsman has issues online at Windowscansacanac City.com.
0:13.9	It is tax day, and for most people, that is absolutely no big deal whatsoever. It comes and goes, nothing's due, nothing's come, people have filed in advance, and it's always a very big deal whatsoever. It comes and goes. Nothing's due. Nothing's come. People have filed in
0:22.4	advance. And it's always a very big deal made of for a smaller number of people that run businesses
0:27.8	or have things that go right up until the deadline. But I thought it would be a good opportunity
0:32.2	to talk about a topic that is, I won't say near and dear to my heart. It's a topic that I'm
0:36.9	very concerned about as it pertains to the future of college athletics,
0:41.7	and that is name, image, and likeness and the endorsements that athletes get.
0:46.1	We've seen a rash of stories in the past couple of weeks with Kansas Jayhawks players
0:51.0	and the money that they're making now after winning a national championship,
0:54.4	as they should and are allowed to do.
0:58.3	And I really don't know anybody that has any issue whatsoever with college athletes making
1:04.3	money off of their name, image, and likeness once they're in college.
1:08.6	The issue that I've always had and the issue anyone has is this becomes a recruiting enticement
1:13.8	and escalation of, you know, promised monetary gifts or things of value are going to completely
1:22.5	change recruiting.
1:23.3	Now, keep in mind, it's still against the rules.
1:26.8	So recruiting a player based on offering them money
1:29.2	through name, image, and likeness is still a violation. A lot of people are running around saying,
1:34.0	obviously, we've got this thing going on with Kansas whatnot. All these things are legal now. No,
1:37.3	they're not legal now. It is not legal to recruit a player and entice them with money to come to your school. You can't do that.
1:47.5	Third party organizations are popping up everywhere, and apparently they can. And how will those
