Stick by your guns, these ney sayers can't read your mind. They don't know what's in your heart. By the Way, how bout some free golf passes to Shoal Creek? Can I pick them up in the Sales Department?"
Probably wishes he had Danny back to fluff him.
BTW, several years ago Harry did let him twist in the wind about criticism. He turned to Jack and said "You know what I'm going through, Jack, you've suffered this stuff." And Jack basically told him, "You're the guy with the microphone, you make yourself a target, man up." [Reply]

As we saw with the Tyreek Hill situation, most people just want to hear an echo of what they already think or what they want to believe is true. If they are optimistic they want to hear nothing but homerism. If they are down on the team, anyone who says otherwise is just a blind homer.
I'm one of those Chiefs fans-- have had season tix for years. I just dont take it as a personal attack if something negative is said about the team or someone on it.
Frankly, pre-Mahommes starting, you could read shitty, nasty, personal stuff directed at Reid and others every day on CP. What Kk said was particularly shitty, but I'd bet if they weren't SB contenders, there would be a lot less outrage.
Technically, what Kk said isnt untrue. It was shitty, but not really untrue. So this comes down to posters' hurt feelings--something they dont usually care about. You know, PC and all that. [Reply]

I'm reminded how insane Danny went when we drafted Hill in the first place. He probably is glad he hasn't been on the radio the past few months. Who knows what kind of insanity he'd have said. [Reply]

Not exactly true. The guy in the control room who was texting on his phone and didn't hit the mute button on KK's show (there is a delay for the obscene word), will lose his job. We at 810 WHB (We hate Beatles) strive to have the highest journalism standards and have taken corrective actions to address this issue. Smoke and Fire BBQ will not be available during this show due to some unknown ingredients in the rub that cause hallucinations of those exposed. [Reply]
CP is easily worked up and plays on emotion instead of logic and reason. For instance in the Tyreek Hill incident if you listened to the majority of them he would have be cut by the Chiefs back in April. then finding out new information they were back tracking on it and throwing the stones and Brooke.
Anyone taking Tyreeks side and saying this needs to be looked into further before Chiefs take action was ran out of the thread. [Reply]

Everyone knows exactly what keitzman said. Barring some wild revelation that keitzman was drugged and forced to say those words against his will, I won't change my mind that it was a shitty thing to say. [Reply]

While you can't yell fire in a crowded theater, everyone has a right to express his or her opinion, no matter how offensive it might be to me. But KK's commentary stepped over the line of good taste and for that he must pay. I, too, have written notes to his sponsors and will never listen to his show. Tune him out, make him a non-entity. Money talks, BS walks.
Good lord KK, even the Mafia had an agreement with the FBI that family outside of the business were off limits. [Reply]

Holy shit, what a fucking coward.

@mellinger: This is interesting, from @pgrathoff. Included in here is that Kietzman recorded a statement to be read at the start of his show, which he will not host today. https://www.kansascity.com/article231933528.html [Reply]
