The NFL is the greatest league in sports because of the parity. The last team drafts first, the first team drafts last. Not allowing Josh Allen, the best player in today’s game, to touch the ball in overtime is one thing the @NFL must fix. pic.twitter.com/UqP4vE6nc0

I give exactly zero fucks about basketball, but James is a despicable, mercenary egomaniacal douche who can't keep his mouth shut and interjects politics into everything he does. He's the anti-Mahomes.
I remember I was eating lunch at a Chinese restaurant the day his televised "decision" to abandon his home town team for Miami was turned into a overblown spectacle by ESPN. Wouldn't have watched it otherwise, but it was on a TV near my table. Made me want to puke up my food on the spot. I've despised him from that moment on, and over the years it's only gotten worse.
I do fear the influence a whiney bitch like LeBron has on the development of Mahomes. GM LeBron makes some of the most low-brow dumbest life choices in the history of pro ball (Russel Westbrook). Last thing Mahomes needs is somebody like that convincing him that he should be a part-time NFL GM. I think Mahomes understands the complexity of NFL chess matches. He's not the type to shit all over the front office like Dashaun Watson and Arron Rodgers. [Reply]

Mahomes was involved in some of LeBron's political stuff last year (BLM and anti-voter suppression stuff). I'd anticipate that to continue, as unlike MJ or Brady (who have basically ignored politics their entire career as it would hurt their bottomline), Mahomes actually seems to have a conscience.

If you don't think Mahomes would have bolted the Chiefs if they gave him a shit organization with no talent for the first 8 years of his career, you're kidding yourself. Luckily, we've had some here that actually know what they are doing. [Reply]

Oh so that’s the difference between Lebron and those guys!! A “conscience”.
Where was Lebron’s “conscience” when he tried to ruin that cops life who saved a 16 year old black girl from being stabbed?
He didn’t even have the “conscience” to issue the man a formal apology.
You’re a fucking clown when it comes to anything Lebron related. [Reply]

Jesus ****ing Christ. This thread isn't about your irrational and dumb hatred.
**** you. This is about the Chiefs. Just because somebody mentions the name Lebron James doesn't mean you have to get set off like a dumbass windup toy.
**** you're all inbred reeruns. Stay on the ****ing topic.

The implication was clearly there.
I was speaking about my belief that Mahomes is not like Brady or MJ because he has a conscience and is willing to speak on political issues that he believes in, yes. I could be way off of course, but he actually seems like a decent guy unlike the others. [Reply]
Because KCC is so insecure about Lebron’s legacy that he feels the need to say he’s the GOAT every day as if it is going to change anybody’s mind. [Reply]

Haven't done that in this thread. I've pointed out the obvious parallels in media treatment between Brady/Mahomes and MJ/LeBron though (which is literally what this thread is about).
The fact that any mention of LeBron becomes such an issue here speaks more to others insecurities about him surpassing MJ than anything else IMO. [Reply]

Allen does look like a top 5 QB when he doesn't have to think.
Unfortunately, HB and Fenton out Spags went real vanilla so our scrub backups wouldn't be confused and we got top end Allen.
If you watch the beginning of the game it is clear Daboll knew this too. Any play where Allen was confused he was instructed to throw the quick check down and take the 4 yards, get to the next play.
Many Buffalo fans thought this was Daboll being a bad play caller.
It was brilliant and kept Buffalo in the game.
If we confused him and he tried to read through it Allen would have made a few big mistakes in the 1st half.
Once Daboll saw we could not run our stuff it then became easy mode. [Reply]
