Bobby ridiculous. 🤯

I really enjoyed the @kcdowntowners lunch last week. Monica Brady, an owner of The Dub KC, a sports bar dedicated to women’s sports, presented the backstory on their concept & an update on the timeline to open. It will be a big time add for our city. thedubkc.com

Back during my first campaign for state rep in 2018!when we still had the same haircut.

MLB Remaining Strength of Schedule

Don’t have the exact stat in front of me, but of the #Royals 97 games, 56 of them were against teams with a winning record. They went 21-35. Against sub-.500 teams, they went 26-15. In the second half, 41 of their final 65 games are against sub-.500 teams (right now).

100 years later, the combined total is only about 663,000. Geographically, Kansas City is really big. (319 square miles) Our population needs to grow in order to provide good basic services.

Really enjoyed being there today to see Tony Rinehart present a $150,000 check from Ford to the new Northland Career Center. The development of the new Northland Career has been one of the coolest things I’ve been a part of in politics by a mile. Northlanders get things done!

Would rewatch

This evening the Rogers family tried out brand-new Alice Scooper’s Ice Cream in Briarcliff Village. @alicescoopers All Rogers including the furry ones approved. Do yourself a favor and support this great local business.

I admittedly spend way too much time thinking about this but would add… Salvy has five Gold Gloves. Of that list, only Bench and Rodriguez have more. He also has five Silver Sluggers. Only Rodriguez, Piazza and Parrish have more. Plus he is a World Series MVP. Let him in!

I bumped into my pal @chrisanderaos walking down the street today! Coach Chris brings his A game at everything he does. Not only is he a beast on the field for our hometown KC Comets, he is also a great coach and role model for our kids. Check out a @kcComets game if you can!

103 players have at least 25 plate appearances since the All-Star break. Only 3 of those 103 players have *not* recorded a strikeout: Geraldo Perdomo Ernie Clement SALVADOR PEREZ

The Cleveland Guardians are in town…which means Cleveland Guardians fans are in town. I met these folks yesterday & enjoyed welcoming them to our city. They’re not just here for baseball, either. They’re here for BBQ, breweries & museums, too. The economic multiplier is real!

Kansas City about to join this list.

REMINDER: The Negro Leagues Baseball Museum is closed today (Sunday, July 27) for a starring role in the hit show Ted Lasso! Big thanks to Jason Sudeikis and cast for including us in the show! We look forward to welcoming guests when we reopen on Monday, July 28! MLB Network Radio on SiriusXM Kansas City Royals

I finished Dan Heath’s Upstream this weekend. It’s a very good book about solving problems before they start and its lessons can easily be applied to city government but also to running dishwasher company, parenting, or almost anything else that’s hard. Highly recommend

It never works out exactly how you would like it but the idea of this rotation for two more years is exciting. Ragans Lugo Bubic Cameron Wacha

No matter your feelings on Mamdani, this opinion piece from the chair of the FTC is worth the read. nytimes.com/2025/07/29/opi…
