Need a reason to believe in the Chiefs.

Listen to Danny Parkins bullshit.

The Chargers, let me run it again: They have Herbert (Mahomes), Harbaugh (Reid), McDaniels (Reid+EB), and…the inevitability of Herbert’s talents?

Everyone he mentioned has an equivalent in KC who’s as good or better, and they’re why LAC is going to win the AFCW? Look, the guy might be right, but his “logic” is badly flawed. You don’t cite three guys for one team to win and ignore the existence on your 3rd place team. To make that fly you need reasons that LAC has and KC doesn’t. You don’t like Rice? Fine, who’s LAC got who’s inarguably as good or better. A better RB than Walker? Who? An elite OL?

He could make an actual case by applying logic, but that takes real work, doesn’t it Danny. Bah, he makes me think that on this one he’s reading a script someone else wrote, because the alternative is telling folks with an actual clue he’s stupid.

Josh Simmons is a concern, but I think the interior’s superior and RT’s likely settled. Johnson and Walker will be good, maybe Smith. Kelce’s no longer young, but he was still a top-ten TE, arguably top 5. (That’s not a liability, Parkins) Jones is getting up there, but he looked bad last year because he had little help outside Karlaftis. FAU’s been looking good, Woods looks solid at minimum, and RMT could be pretty good – considered against veteran DEs, not rookies.

Toub hasn’t looked great, last couple years, but he’s had some very good years here, and his 3 full-timers are very good. Hard to pick out an elite DB, but IMO Spags has done more with less at times. We’re not an elite team right now, but that’s because nobody is. As units go you have to prove yourself every season. There’s plenty of reason for optimism.

I didn’t expect Superman to have a bomb in his chest.

It was like Monty Python mixed with a lot of AI stuff. Gotta love the Canadian South Park style mouths.

Definitely strange.

Not too shabby. Been busy since Fri, younger son drove up here (near Hibbing) from Sioux Falls after work then to help me get my car back, then up and running after 8 years. Cost less than I feared, around $500 and she runs as well as when parked, no significant rust, either. Lichen al over the canvas landau, but elbow grease, car wash run, and more elbow grease got almost all that off.

Great seeing him again, of course. His older bro lives up here, so lil’ bro’s visits are a bit more special. Paperwork’s next, ugh, but the big task’s done.

I am working on pieces called Chiefs Rooms. About our position groups. I completed QBs and Running Backs.

The first one will launch on Friday.

Please let me know if you have any questions about the Chiefs that you want to discuss and read about it.

If you lurk and you want to write and contribute. Log in and let us know. Especially if you know wordpress and can edit. We might say no and beat you up in the alley. But we might say yes. It’s up to Hoosier.

I’m willing to do copy editing for you or anyone upon request. I still like doing that, in fact – it’s all the other stuff that wore me down.

After a look under the dash, I’ll say that with your position, I can add an NFL-related video to your OTs. Don’t blame you a bit for running them lean, but I’ll help with content, if and when possible. Easier task, with the season upon us.

I miss writing with you Brag, you’re a great editor.

My life faced quite the stall and downfall and I haven’t been around and I apologize to everyone for not being here. You are really good at what you do Brag and I’m glad you’re still here.

I really miss Ups and I’m super sad he’s gone.

Yeah, I miss him too, not least since he was my most faithful audience, over the years. Thanks for the compliments, it’s very kind of you to say that. I do have a pretty high opinion of my skills, so getting that validate? Mmmm, donuts…d’oh!

Besides Joel Thorman and Seth Keysor (MN), you’re one of my only editors as I typically self police my words.

But you’re definitely the best!

Let’s get that statue erected already.

I miss Ups too, but it’s good to see a familiar face (avatar) show up again.

I hope your downfall is over and you’re on your way back up a better path.

He looked fast and shifty, but his size wouldn’t work in the modern NFL.

Likely so, but he was a dominant athlete in his day. Pity about his gold medals getting revoked, a pretty racist move by the IOC, but par for the course at the time.

Watching him bend reminds me of DT58(RIP). Remember how he’d windmill his outside arm while cornering? Makes me wonder if this kid would benefit from watchijng that old tape. T’would be nice to see him pair up with Woods the way DT and Neil Smith used to roll. (Hey, Spags, maybe see if you can channel some Gunther, hey?)
