The top headlines from The Kansas City Star on Monday, November 1st, 2021 including: Kansas AG Schmidt files lawsuit against Biden vaccine mandate for federal contractors; Kansas lawmaker compares COVID-19 requirements to Holocaust; and KC NWSL team unveils new name and logo during season finale.

This feels like a week where we need to talk. So the format is a bit different: a lead, and then twice as many questions as usual. The lead is sort of about Angie and Chris Long's announcement that KC NWSL will soon play in a privately funded $70 million, 11,000-seat stadium at Berkely Park that will double as one of the city's top concert venues and it's sort of about the Royals' exploration of a downtown ballpark but it's more about life and other stuff and a point that's been on my mind a lot lately. The questions hit on a lot of topics, starting with the best rant anyone's left me on voicemail, continuing on with the Chiefs and Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid and basketball memories and more.

Kansas City’s professional soccer teams, Sporting KC and KC NWSL, are moving in opposite directions. Sporting is on fire, the winner of three straight and climbing into second place in the MLS Western Division standings. KC NWSL is struggling. Winless in its four regular-season games, the expansion team has been held without a goal in three. Two draws means they’re only one victory away from moving up in the standings. Perhaps it comes on Sunday at Legends Field against Houston?
