this poll is old, and I'm sure most of those yes votes were kneejerk reactions. [Reply]

In that case, your coward ass should clearly vote no. [Reply]

Chief Fan, like Clark, cares primarily about “appearance”. Winning is secondary, at most. [Reply]
Yeah, I mean I was in support of keeping him even if he was found guilty. Voted that way weeks ago. Made some comments, but to REITERATE those comments:
KC didn't get any brownie points for releasing the BEST RUNNING BACK IN FOOTBALL who just joined another team. That team wasn't punished.
KC did the 'right thing' and was objectively harmed by it.
If the ****ing NFL wants teams to do the right thing, they need to give some incentive. Instead that incentive is on signing problem players to budget contracts.
Releasing Hunt was a mistake. You don't make the same mistake twice. Make him donate to a domestic abuse center. Give him counseling. There are a number of things you can do if the players' best interest is the goal, but all the goddamn media pressure for KC to release him only for the same media ****s to praise Dorsey and Cleveland REALLY chapped my ass.
**** the NFL. **** optics. **** the sports media. Keep Hill. If the NFL wants to ban him, they can ****ing do it. Don't put the onus on an individual team to harm themselves for the sake of the league's image.
The guy would just end up on some other team and get rebranded by the same media and league as some prodigal HOFer. [Reply]
And now that Chiefs fans have woken up to the very real possibility of winning and winning big, I can guarantee you that they're not going to give much of a damn about optics going forward either.
Oh, there'll be some old school holdouts but you know what? They will straight shut the fuck up when the Lombardis start rolling in.
And the Chiefs know this. Now.... They know this. [Reply]

Richie Incognito is still getting work and he was at best an above average guard who just a few MONTHS ago copped to a sexual assault accusation.
Seems this type of shit is totally fine on coastal teams. Weird huh?
I'm sure he would have been instantly forgiven the day he went to the Redskins or Giants or Patriots. [Reply]
