Holy hat what’s going on here? I never mentioned one word about the tragic death of Andy Reid’s son and quickly corrected a caller who did. I was talking about the owner’s record of “fixing” players, the team’s record and Andy’s record. I was referencing the drug (1/3)
addiction and convictions for dealing drugs. When they served time and Reid hired them to work for his football teams, it was no longer a private matter. But blaming a parent for the death of their child in these circumstances is unthinkable and reprehensible. Period. It (2/3)
was NEVER mentioned or discussed and NEVER entered my mind. It makes me sad that somehow that’s what some of you thought I was saying. That would be despicable. (3/3)
We’ll see what happens when the station starts losing money. Andy Reid is well liked in KC. Whatever his faults are as a coach, making it that personal is a big no no. [Reply]

His exact wording was you had to take Andy Ried family life into consideration about his failure to fix people [Reply]
Seriously, what's wrong with the KC media? Is it the matter that they've never dealt with a successful team, so they're desperate for critical stories? Have they had turnover that's led to the hiring of a bunch of inexperienced people with no journalism backgrounds? They keep trying to make the Chiefs look bad, but at some point the nation is going to realize that Kansas City is merely the home of a lot of really incompetent media people. [Reply]
