NYC in Big Trouble, Tyreek Hill Fire No Surprise, Chiefs Sunday Decisions, Big 12 Hoops Schedule Shocker, R’s Should Consider Bauer, Point Spread Picks

   New York City is in big trouble.  If America's largest city is in crisis over illegal aliens hanging out and destroying things all over the place, how can we handle any more people at all?  Their mayor is crying foul and threating lawsuits and, well, it's all their own fault for putting up a neon sign saying they're better than conservatives and everyone is welcome.  Citizen or not.

   Tyreek Hill's house fire was started by an unattended child playing with a lighter.  This is the least surprising part of this story.

    The Chiefs have some big decisions to make about playing time Sunday, especially with Rashee Rice who has more Yards after Catch than Tyreek Hill this year.  Amazing.

   Conference basketball starts for KU, KSU and MU  Saturday and we'll preview their games and chances.  And there's a glaring stat about the Big 12 strength of schedule that is one of the craziest things I've ever heard.

   The Royals should, at the very least, consider signing ace pitcher Trevor Bauer who's been blackballed the past two years.  This is a wild story but Bauer is free and clear and I don't see why he can't play.

   And Lee Sterling of www.paramountsports.com is here with our point spread picks this weekend.
