The first NFL deal ever to hit half a billion. Three of his mates were at the mic today after day two of minicamp. Chris Jones says no one's happy about last year. I don't think we're used to finishing the season that early.
It was a first for me. Not making the playoffs. AFC West, we didn't win it. It's a lot of motivational points that we can use for fuel. Royals have won 6 of 8 in the month of June. 5-3 winners over Texas last night. Seth Lugo against McKenzie Gore tonight at 640. NBA Finals tonight. Spurs and Knicks in Game 5 at 730.

It is the program here on Sports Radio 810 WHB. We make the turn and head for home. Second half of the program begins right now. We welcome Tim Grunhard, football insider, life coach, Chiefs Hall of Fame center. Officially the third quarter of the show? Yes, it is. Third quarter, Tim. I didn't want to put my fingers up for. No, that happens at 5. We do that at 5 o'clock. I put three fingers up.
As long as I don't put one finger up. Do it right there. Don't bother me.
Chapter 3: How does Tim Grunhard reflect on the Chiefs' performance last season?
I'm used to that for me. I saw Workman on Workman Crime today. I was following a truck that was putzing along at like 18 miles an hour in a 30 mile an hour zone, but it was a work zone. And as we were going, I'm like, whatever, I'm fine. And I'm following along and we go by some of the workers and two of them
bang right to the guy driving the truck through now i'm assuming they're buddies and it was a joke assuming but i don't know it's like that one movie not the movie the song some beach somewhere and when he's driving along and he gets flipped off and he's like some beach somewhere what's that alan jackson song ah yeah No idea what you're talking about.
Not exactly way down yonder in the Chattahoochee, is it? No, it's not. That's Alan Jackson. That's Alan Jackson, too. Okay. But, yeah, I just actually got flipped off about a week ago from somebody. Really? Who? I was at a four-way stop. Are you one of those fools that can't figure out how it works? No, I'm not. In fact, I was completely in the right. You know, you go at the same time.
The opposites go at the same time. You run into each other. No, you don't. And if you're turning left, you go either. I'm not telling this story for you to try to make me guilty. Are you my wife now? I think you're going to be disappointed. This is what she said to me. What did you do wrong? That is exactly right.
Chapter 4: What are the characteristics of future Chiefs players according to Tim?
He flipped me off. And what did I do wrong? What'd you do? What'd you do? What'd you do wrong? You were probably driving like a jackass. I was not driving like a jackass. I was being very, very calm, cool, and collective at the four-way stop. So what happened? We both kind of got there at the same time. Who was on the right? I was on the right. I had the right of way.
So then you had the right of way. If you get there at the same time, you are on the right as the right of way. I went, and he flipped me off. Really? Yeah, it's an older guy in a Mercedes Benz. Did you jump out of the car and kick his ass? No, I did not. Did you stop? I said a prayer for him. Wave your hand out the window and tell him, do you know who I am?
I said, Lord God, he's having a bad day. Send him some grace. He did not. You did not. I did too. Lying about praying is probably not wise at your age. What's that supposed to mean?
Chapter 5: What challenges do high school coaches face according to Tim Grunhard?
You know, I think you need all the help you can get. What is that supposed to mean? You're probably 10 minutes away from your next surgery. Let's no more surgeries. No mas. No. No mas. As Roberto Duran famously said. No mas. No mas. What is Bill? Why are you bringing Bill into this? Who? Bill Moss. Oh, yeah. That's pretty good. Let's leave Bill out of it. All right.
Yeah, I want to start with this. I want to remember which one it was. You took exception to Chris Jones talking about the tough old days. Yeah, the tough old days. We used to have to run 12 gasters. And you're like, you came in, like we had to tell you to quiet down because Curtis was getting ready to do his end of the hour. You were firing off F-bombs like it was nobody's business.
Yeah, the fitness tests were a lot more difficult back then. I think we had to do 15 110s under a certain amount of time with only a little bit of rest, which is harder than a half gasser. Although I'll never forget Dan Salyamu, a famous line. We're running gassers out with Marty after practice one time. And the old, was it Blazing Saddles? You know, the gassers?
We don't need no stinking gassers! It was a great line. Everybody was dying. Marty's like, what? Gassers? We don't need no stinking gassers. The line was badges. Badges? We don't need no stinking badges. But yeah, so, and then, boy, I'll tell you what. Did Salamu make it? At like 5'11 and 3'15, was he really? I can't remember who. You and him probably had the toughest time making those times.
No, I was very athletic. I used to be athletic. I used to be a player back in the day. Hey, I gave you credit. When? Hold on, hold on. Mark it. Go. What now? Wasn't it earlier this week where I was talking about ā it was either late last week or early this week.
I said, you know, everybody sits around thinking that, you know, their high school coach is the only reason why they didn't go to the next level or I could be out there in baseball. You know, they're all Uncle Rico's. Like, oh, man, if you just put me in, we'd have won state and I'd be getting a championship. I said, in reality, like none of us want to admit ā
Or that it was just God-given ability and nobody wants to admit that maybe they didn't work hard enough. I said, so like when everybody was running around on Friday night, you know, they weren't like Tim who was running and his friends would go by with a car full of beer and make fun of you for being out working out, trying to get a scholarship and play football.
If I wanted to eat, my dad said, you better go run and go work out if you want to eat. And that's a true story. He was not a very pleasant person. We talked about Manny Ramirez getting to his high school at 5.30 in the morning. They'd given him the keys to the high school, and he would arrive at 5.30 so he could hit in the cages for an hour before anybody else got there. Yeah.
People don't like, oh, no, it was just the coach screwed me. No, no, no. He wouldn't have screwed you if you were really good. Trust me. He wanted you playing and making him look good. My first year as the head coach at Bishop Meage High School in 2006, we had a bunch of seniors on the team.

Chapter 6: What is the significance of Josh Simmons' weight for his performance?
Of this. And those KCK kids work so hard, man. Those kids, they're such great kids. But they've only got like 18 kids on a team. I will tell you, I really like the cheerleaders and dance teams got together and did some stuff together. And I really appreciated that. Yeah. I mean, that was. That's awesome. That was real. But the competition on the field. And I will give. I forget.
He's obviously a very good coach there at Aquinas. What's his name? You put me on. You should know. You've probably been to coaching clinics. I've known him for many, many years. Dwyer? Dreyer? Yeah. Anyway, he's very accomplished. Curtis will look it up. Dreiling. Randy Dreiling. Randy Dreiling. Sorry, Randy. He's probably listening. I apologize. I should know. But not anymore. He's mad.
Good dude. Pretty aggressive. He went to the bench early, but even his bench was... Yeah. And I was like, why are they doing this? That's a tough deal. Yeah, they really should make it where you have to win a certain amount of games. Because it's like one against 32 or one against 64, however many teams there are. Something like that.
And so one, two, and three are playing teams that are clearly at a point in their program that... They do not need to go take another ass-kicking to finish the year. Get on a bus to lose 64-0. Yeah. And it used to be where, I mean. Because you know they're not hosting. Yeah. And then the season's over for a lot of these teams. Like that team that Aquinas played in October.
I mean, the season's over in October. It used to be where at least, you know, you played district games. You played in November. So, I mean, most of these teams that play nine or ten games at the most. I remember early on when I was doing PA stuff, it was Raytown or Ray South. It must have been Ray South. They started 0-7 in those last three games. They won three games.
Got into the Distribution 3-7 and just got annihilated by somebody. I remember you used to do the color stuff for Spectrum, didn't you? No. No, you didn't do it? No. No, that was Baldinger. They look similar, but... Baldy and Baldinger. Well, you covered high school sports, though, didn't you? I've done PA for 40 years. Oh, God. Almost 40 years. God, I'm old.
Yeah, the district's like... I think East, when I was at East, our district was like East. It was one of the other Shawnee Missions. South. And then it was Harmon. Yeah. And... Harmon's... I think it was Harmon, and I think it was... Wyandotte? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I mean, I'd be telling you. And Harmon and Wyandotte were not ā football was not a priority for the kids there.
Well, they said ā it wasn't the kids. I mean, there were some really good athletes on their teams. They only had about 18 kids on their team. I know. That's what I'm saying. You just can't play competitive football when there are six kids standing next to the coaches. Yeah, exactly. And it wasn't that year, but there was a time. It had been early in the 90s when it was ā
Raytown, Raytown South, and Rockhurst, and then somebody else. And you're watching the game, and there are more freshmen on the Rockhurst team than there are team players for the entire Raytown South. Maybe one of the Blue Springs. Yeah, and there's like, how can they even compete with that? The players are like from the 10-yard line to the 10-yard line. It's just white.

Chapter 7: How does Tim Grunhard view the evolution of training camps?
I think Jaden Hicks is around. Jaden Hicks is your eighth guy? He's my last but not least. And I also had Jared Wiley at tight end around. Both of those guys were hold your nose. I wasn't sure, but just looking at ā See, Trey Smith I think will be gone. Josh Simmons will be gone. So you think they'll be a ninth? You want me to put down Jared Wiley as a ninth guy? Yep. Put him as my ninth.
No chance. Okay. And the only reason is because I think they need to... What about Jared Wiley makes you think that they're like, yeah, I've got to give him another contract? A big body guy. He's got a huge frame to him. I think that... he's a guy that I think is going to be a really good number two to number three tight end. When is this happening?
When Kelsey, this year, when Kelsey retires and they're going to go on, they'll probably draft a very athletic tight end. You need a mauler, you need a tough guy, and I think he fits the bill. I think he athletically and stature-wise has the ability to do it. Now, yes, that's why he's nine. I will give you, like, here's one of the things, like, Xavier Worthy, Jeff had Xavier Worthy.
Sam and I had the exact same eight, not quite in the same order. We ranked them one through eight. What are yours? Mine were Patrick Mahomes, one, Creed Humphrey, two, Mansour Delane, three, Josh Simmons, four. See, I think Josh Simmons, he'll be up. Well, I want to talk about him next. George Karloftis, five. Peter Woods, six. Kingsley Suomata, seven. And R. Mason Thomas, eight.
Others I consider were Cyrus Allen, Trey Smith, Esa Pole, Omar Norman Lott, and Jeffrey Bossa.
uh just because i don't know what boss is and and and i don't know that you want to keep nick bolton uh jeff had nick bolton re-signing yeah again with him but i i think you know noah gray is one of the names on this list they're not all stars no right so there are guys that'll be like you know and that's where i think xavier worthy i thought jeff made a good point that he's like he's not going to be demanding huge money out there and they'll be like hey he's a guy we know and we want to speed guys so we'll keep him yeah so i could see that happening i could see that happening

Josh Simmons is talking about weighing 285-290, which to me means 285. Or why wouldn't you say one weight, right? He says he wants to be at 300 when the season comes around. What do you need to weigh to play offensive tackle? Yeah, I'm looking at him in some of these pictures. Because I heard some things that he was sub-280 last year. He does not look like he's 285.
