Just to clear up the issue, and to slap myself in the head over this
one:

Turns out the jsapi was being called in the <head> without a key to
use jQuery, then being called again where they were trying to use
maps, but being ignored due to already being called once. I added the
key to the original call and removed the second call and just like
magic it worked as it should. imagine that.

Thank you for the assistance, we hope to be a little more active on
this board.

Matt
