In the 1990s, NBC promoted its prime-time programming as “Must See TV.”
NBC may want to dust off that promo for its Sports Network on Friday. That’s because Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes and tight end Travis Kelce will be taking part in the American Century Celebrity Golf Championship in Lake Tahoe, Nevada.
The first round is Friday and the Chiefs stars will be grouped with singer/songwriter/actor Justin Timberlake. That’s a star-studded trio.
