Broncos are trading for Russell Wilson. :-) [Reply]

Right. I guess I just can't see somebody saying what you said out loud and then smiley winking at the end of it. [Reply]

When he says something stupid, he thinks he can say "Hey, I'm a passionate guy and I was frustrated..." and we'll forgive him.

I completely disagree. I think very few people truly understand what top athletes who are extremely competitive go through and expect from themselves every day. I believe the HB is giving his all and expects the D to rise above and it's not happening, he's getting a ton of shit for it and he went off.
I think social media is not a good place for the vast majority of elite athletes to go. IMO the Chiefs fans are not toxic as a whole. I don't think you can judge the average Chiefs fan based on social media Chiefs fans. I think we have a great fan base. With that in mind, is ChiefsPlanet toxic? Absolutely. Social media in general is extremely toxic. Life under Covid and the stress that goes with it has brought out the worst in posters making it even more toxic as people lash out at anything that frustrates them.
Performance is a separate issue. Although I understand but certainly don't condone the HB's behavior I see a lot heads rolling at the end of the year, especially on defense. I am still hopeful they can turn it around but I would be lying if I said I was optimistic. [Reply]

There's no way Hitchens could have seen that post unless he was searching his name.
It would seem it would show up in their mentions.
Likely someone sent it to him. You really think these guys are sitting around searching their name on Twitter? [Reply]

The fuck it does. All Hitchens and Mathieu did was confirm what we all knew, that this defense is led by a bunch of lazy fucks that have cashed out, checked out, and are more than content to live off past glory. [Reply]

All it does is give you something to feed your own internal narrative to what you think is going on. It doesn't actually "confirm" anything. The real truth is none of us actually KNOW what's going on with the defense other than they are underperforming. [Reply]
There are other ways articles can get to players even if not directed at the athlete. Often times, Twitter users will retweet the message and tag the player, sometimes offering commentary on their own. That being said, HB strikes me as a guy that tries to find what people are saying about him. [Reply]
