Devan’s Dozen: Christmas Edition
In 2018, the Consumer Price Index estimated the total cost of the gifts given in the famed carol The 12 Days of Christmas to be valued at just north of $39,000. The value is clearly there but were the gifts any good? This special Christmas edition of Devan’s Dozen ranks, from worst to first, the gifts of this beloved song.
Crying For Ol’ Buck
I will never forget where I was on December 5, 2021 when the seemingly impossible happened - legendary Kansas City Monarchs first baseman and manager Buck O’Neil was inducted into the Major League Baseball Hall of Fame. And even though, he always told his fans not to cry for him - how could I not?
Close to Home
About 100 miles north of Kansas City lies the seemingly sleepy town of Skidmore, Missouri. Over the past half-century, Skidmore has become notable for the occasional violent and mysterious incidents that have transpired there. Growing up in nearby Worth County, Kansas City filmmaker Clayton Scott has long been intrigued by Skidmore’s grisly past. Real-life crimes in Skidmore were the influence behind his most recent film, “Below the Fold”.
A Walk In The Parks, Pt. III
At long last, the tale of my summer travels with my brother Connor comes to an end. We concluded our trip at Yellowstone National Park. While it has long been THE national park and we were excited to visit, you can never quite prepare for the oddity and geology of Yellowstone. It truly is a bizarre place.
#kc2026
Today, nearly two dozen delegates from FIFA are conducting their site visit of Kansas City culminating in attending the US Women’s National Team vs. Korea at Children’s Mercy Park. This city, and our amazing #kc2026 bid committee, have worked tirelessly to get us to this point. But now, in the homestretch, we need our most valuable resource and the thing that makes the Soccer Capital of America so special - our people.
A Walk In The Parks, Pt. II
Since the summer of 2019, my brother Connor and I have embarked on a trip every June to explore a new National Park. After an incredible night in Idaho Falls, we had a memorable breakfast and then made our way to Grand Teton National Park where the beautiful hiking trails and ample wildlife viewing opportunities made this one of my favorite parks I have visited.
Seasoned.
Over the past few months, I had heard whispers of a burger joint in the Crossroads called Sauced, that was a must-try place. After some co-workers let me know that it was within walking distance of the office, I knew I had to give it a try. Hidden away in a courtyard near Corrigan Station, I found the small white kiosk and was reminded that not all gems are meant to be uncovered.
Oh, What A Knight!
Following the news in July that the University of Texas and University of Oklahoma would be leaving the Big XII after 2025, rumors began to swirl about the demise of the conference, to the dismay of many in KC. Then, earlier today, the Big XII extended invites to 4 new members, my Alma Mater among them, which leaves me to weigh the future of that program, the Big XII, and Kansas City.
A Walk In The Parks, Pt. I
Since the summer of 2019, my brother Connor and I have embarked on a trip every June to explore a new National Park. With Southwest opening up flights to Bozeman, MT earlier this year, we knew it was finally time to cross Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons off our list. But first, we had to make an 86 mile detour in the hopes of meeting a Kansas City legend - a man that true Royals’ fans know as “Country Breakfast”.
