Three things we learned about sucking this weekend

1. The slurping sound coming from the West Bottoms is Kemper Arena sucking up about a million taxpayer dollars.

2. The Kansas City Chiefs still suck. Long season ahead for Matt Cassel.

3. U.S. Sen. Kit Bond feels “like a mosquito in a nudist colony” trying to pick his battles. Despite e-mails to the contrary, he’s still denying getting the White House to fire Todd Graves as U.S. attorney.
