There are two problems, though. First, the Kansas City Chiefs still need to beat the Buffalo Bills this Sunday in the AFC Championship just to get to the Super Bowl, and then they would need to beat either the Green Bay Packers or Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Super Bowl LV. Secondly, the city can’t possibly throw a huge shindig like they did last February after the Chiefs ended their 50-year Super Bowl drought by beating the San Francisco 49ers....

In the two years dubbed “it” by the powers that be sitting on high in Kansas City, the Royals have managed to correct all that seemed to be wrong in the few years prior in solidifying a solid pitching staff.

The Gunpowder Milkshake trailer begins with Gillan’s character Sam arriving at a library carrying a yellow duffle bag that has “I heart kittens” written on the side (nice touch).
