## Resource

It feels like President Trump is not interested in any more military actions against Iran and has pivoted to economic pressure that he's calling an Economic D-Day. And it seems it's dragging half the world in with it. Scary stuff indeed. The GOP will have a Midterm Convention September 9th and 10th in Dallas. Who picked these dates? It's opening night and night two for the NFL so you can scratch 40 million people out that won't be watching. The PGA Tour playoffs are in St. Louis this week and the Pro-Am portion was Wednesday. Senator Eric Schmitt teed it up with world #1 player Scottie Scheffler. We open up the mailbag as many of you share your stories of dumping all your NIKE gear with me years ago. In sports, an analytics pro says Patrick Mahomes sack rate will determine the fate of his comeback and it has very little to do with offensive line play. I've got the numbers.... and I agree. A KU grad that reports on the Big 12 has a dire prediction for the Jayhawks this football season. The Royals are on a heater with a wildly dramatic comeback win over the A's and NASCAR announces it's pair of race weekends at Kansas Speedway next year.
