Conflating a head coach's relationships with his players and the loss of his addict child was one of the most odious and repulsive verbal essays I've ever heard by anyone.
The "it needs to be talked about" rationale he used at the time tells you all you need to know about Kietzman's ethical orientation.
On balance, I have my doubts that this guy was ever a boy scout.

I asked him about it when he came to work for the company I work for, he still acted like what he said wasn't a big deal but he did say he knew he was done as soon as he said.
He made it seem like it was an honest mistake, I was just like uh huh. :-) [Reply]
I did enjoy Kietzman's monologue series although he did come off at times as gossipy and overly critical on certain players.
Since he was taken off radio, I have switched to listening to Arrowhead Pride's podcasts which I find very insightful. [Reply]

Some idiots will excuse it as:
"Well, he called it as he saw it"
"Enjoyed his show before he got hit by our cancel culture."
We should "ignore them rather than demand their firing when they don’t live up to our personal standards." [Reply]
There was a time (early 00’s) I really enjoyed his show. At some point though his opinions morphed into obvious troll jobs from what was originally genuine sports talk.
I don’t think he should have been fired for it but I also haven’t listened to him in at least a decade and also think sports talk in town is better for it quality wise.
I think he could have possibly survived had he shown actual contrition in the direct aftermath instead of doubling down like the egomaniacal mega douche he unfortunately became.
Several media personalities tied their future careers to villifying tyreek. When their half assed shoddy journalism was exposed they missed their opportunity to cover a Superbowl winning team.

Good.
Of course, Chief Fan took pleasure in vilifying him as well and is now celebrating.
I think my favorite are the life-long Chief Fans who quit watching the NFL altogether a couple years ago for whatever dumb****ing reason. :-) [Reply]
