    AUG 8 KELCE GAME SHOW Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce has been doing a little bit of everything lately. From winning another Super Bowl, to appearing at his girlfriend, Taylor Swift's concert, and hosting a podcast with his brother, Jason. Now, he is venturing into a new territory.

    On Thursday, the Discussing Film account on X shared a first look of Kelce on the set of the game show "Are You Smarter Than A Celebrity," which he will be hosting on Amazon Prime Video starting in October.

    The best TV show hosts are relatable, funny, and charismatic people who can rap the attention of their audience. Who better to jump into that role than Kelce, who has been charming fans both on and off the field for years.

    AUG 7 BEHIND THE BACK Kansas City Chiefs star quarterback Patrick Mahomes is known for making the hardest throws look routine, and he is already doing it in training camp.

    In practice on Wednesday, the ball was snapped to Mahomes, and he pulled off something you never see in a football game. He rolled out right a bit and then all of a sudden threw a behind-the-back pass to running back Isiah Pacheco for a touchdown.

    Mahomes is still somehow finding a way to show NFL fans something they have never seen before, and he will be looking to continue to do that as he try to lead the Chiefs to their third straight Super Bowl.

    AUG 7 THE GOAT In the end, Travis Kelce might be considered the GOAT at tight end.

    But the GOAT in the NBA '? The "Greatest of All Time"?

    The Chiefs superstar tight end Travis Kelce has his easy answer. LeBron James .

    "You already know man, it's all about Bron, man. Northeast Ohio, baby, it's something in the water," said Kelce, who happens to hail from Ohio ... as does LeBron James.

    AUG 7 'SOCIOPATH' Former Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh, now back in the NFL as the Los Angeles Chargers head coach, swears he had nothing to do with the Wolverines cheating scandal, insisting that he was taught never to lie, cheat or steal.

    Harbaugh therefore is not about to apologize because he said he did not participate in anything devious or illegal.

    The most harsh response comes from ESPN's Paul Finebaum, the college football voice.

    "I don't know enough about psychology, but I struggle with what is he,'' Finebaum said. "Is he delusional? Is he sociopathic? Is he pathological? I need help because he's one of those.

    "He's not normal, but I can assure you of that."

    AUG 7 ADAMS LEAD LEAGUE IN YARDS? Davante Adams had a slower season in 2023, as he is one of the only players where 1100 yards could be considered "slow." But this year, many think he could bounce back and make some noise.

    In DraftKings Sportsbook's latest odds, Adams has the third-highest odds to lead the league in receiving yards during the regular season.

    The veteran wide out did not get as many targets as he would have liked until Antonio Pierce took over the head coaching duties. Now that he is the full-time head coach, Adams could be poised to bounce back and help the Raiders contend with the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC West.

    AUG 5 TONEY BACK? The Chiefs will have a padded practice on Monday and it appears wide receiver Kadarius Toney, who has been out for almost a week with an ankle issue, might be ready to return.

    Toney has experienced an interesting training camp, with coach Andy Reid and staff clearly trying to find a way to utilize his speed in creative ways. Stay tuned here.

    AUG 5 C'MON, TROY! Cowboys legend Troy Aikman, in an appearance on the Pat McAfee Show, stated the longer this goes, the less likely it is that Dak Prescott will be in Dallas next season. And then he added a doozy ...

    As he then compared Prescott’s numbers the last few seasons against three-time Super Bowl champion Patrick Mahomes of the Kansas City Chiefs.

    “When you look at the numbers,” Aikman said, “if you didn't have the name and you just had the stats. … wins included, you would put Dak Prescott's numbers over the last couple of years along(side) with Patrick Mahomes.”

    But, of course, there’s a “but.” And the Hall of Famer Aikman knows it.

    And what we know? That Super "but'' means ... everything.
