A good lesson for all: don't shit on everyone, you might need someone some day. Anyone. KK had none.

Someone brought that up on Friday maybe on twitter or something. In a profession where even though they are competing against each other, they have each others back. Kietzman literally did shit on everyone, and when he needed help the most, NOBODY relevant came to his rescue. Not one single person outside of a former 610 host that moved to Denver and trolls KC all the time.

Getting crosswise with Nate (and thus SSJ) and Sam (and thus...everyone?) was unwise. Getting crosswise with the Chiefs (as they have ascending what is possibly the guy in American sports for the next ten years) was fatal.

And he tried his damndest to talk his way out of the situation, and he honestly couldn't.

Wednesday night or Thursday night, whenever it was with him on the TV show trying to do damage control and state "I'm not resigning because the Chiefs have employed criminal after criminal and they are still playing" and 810 basically just seemed to say OK, we'll make it easy for you. We'll just say we "mutually part ways"

I'm still shocked they did it. Ownership in the station. Been there for 20+ years. But he definitely fell off the rails over the last few years as 610 passed him up in the afternoon spot. He had to do something to make a splash, and saying some crazy things definitely got his name in the news.

And that's the craziest part!

Other than scenarios where your actual position (legal or business or something) is harmed by it, the "unequivocal and unconditional 'I fucked up' apology" is an undefeated strategy. And it was right there for him.

KK's shtick has long been excoriating the Chiefs and KU for bad crisis management in his normal sanctimonious tone.

When it's his turn, he failed worse than either.
