So does Frank Clark get the Neil Smith treatment, where people remember the betrayal of his going to the Donks whenever he’s mentioned? Or does he get the treatment some people give Jamaal Charles where it’s kind of a footnote people don’t talk about?
Depends… Charles said he always wanted to play for the Donks and some other stuff on his way out. Frank just wanted to play it seems like. Neither of them won/will help the rival team win anything like Neil Smith did. [Reply]

He should get the Eric Hicks treatment.
Where when people mention him, their first thought is "hey remember this guy? He fucking sucked..." [Reply]

He doesn't suck because he went to a division rival.

That's a very good point..
I think each situation is different though.. from what I remember DJ was way way past his prime. And just because I don't hate DJ doesn't mean I am a huge fan of his after he did that. Same time were Raiders only team that offered him a contract? I don't recall but that may have been the case. Plus DJ wasn't a loudmouth like Frank Clark who acted like he would never play for another team in a lot of those post game interviews.
I don't know if Clark got many contract offers but just seems funny he signed w Broncos. [Reply]
The Donks are just going to cut Clark late in the season to use his roster spot on a younger player anyway (since they suck shit) so if we really want him back we can just wait it out and sign him right before the playoffs, which is the only time he's useful anyway. [Reply]

Signing w a AFC West rival after all Chiefs did for him. Talking shit and Broncos D is worse w him. Ha.. yeah that's a guy I'm going to defend on a Chiefs message board.
I'm confused. What exactly did he say? Has he badmouthed the Chiefs?
The Chiefs no longer wanted him. He probably didn't have many contract offers and went to the highest bidder. It's not like he jumped ship to a competitor because he thought they had a better chance of winning. He did what 99.9% of the population would've done in the same situation.
