Keep your eyes on the prize. We've known Dense was a mindless sewer for over a decade.

Right now, we're focusing on how to quickly return Pioli to where he's more comfortable...Pahkin his kah in the kah pahk neara lawbstah stowah.

Let's tie the car seat from Dense's 1985 Toyota over his head when he leaves so Pioli and his band of morons can never find their way back.

I see what you did there.



Or do I?




On a side note, is "Positive rhep" really a good thing?

What's funny is this broad trying to make working class a perjorative when she leeches off of some poor, stupid man who is exactly that. All the while working herself at some job that could be done by a part-timer out of high school.

As long as it's not coming from your physician, yes...

Your loudest and strongest voice is on your ass...in your back pocket. NOTHING will speak so loud. All the complaining in the world won't speak as loud or produce more results than that green piece of paper.

See you aren't powerless and you aren't a victim. Choose to support the team FINANCIALLY or not. Then real changes will occur.

And nothing Whitlock says will have as much impact at that...though I'm sure he'll take credit.
Well, think of the Chiefs like something that's actually important in your life, imagine there are no alternatives, then maybe it'll make more sense? People don't want to simply read a book on Sunday afternoon... they want to tailgate and they want a rockin' Arrowhead with a competitive team. And once again, the whole point of the media attention is to drive real change.

Wouldn't it be hilarious if they sold out the parking lot but not the stadium. Why not just tailgate and then leave. That would send a message. :D

Somebody has already suggested that. Everybody stays in the parking lot the entire game while the stadium is empty.

You're WRONG. There aren't too many losers on this board that would assign "working class" a negative connotation. You are one of the few.

It's not suprising, given where you have traditionally stood on political topics, that you would consider his use of the term "working class" to be a negative stereotype.



You are absolutely, unequivocally wrong.

It's called BRAND EQUITY. The Kansas Chiefs property itself - the logo, the name, the FANS - have a value.

When those things are devalued, the Chiefs BRAND is devalued.

If that weren't the case, they NEVER would have apologized for what happened on Twitter with teedubya.

What we're doing right now IS forcing change. Whether that turns out to be the change WE WANT remains to be seen...
No, my argument is that Whitlock is not going to win you any favors and he is certainly not going to win you any sympathy. If anything, if he is championing your cause it's going to make fans look even less likeable.

I think Chiefs fans have a pretty good reputation in the NFL. THAT is why the Winston comments took hold. Because they SEEM so out of character. Once we start accepting that we are pathetic, hapless, helpless fans then it's TO BE EXPECTED. Having national writers write about us in that light and our embracing it makes us appear to be more inclined to have 70k fans booing our injured player.

The problem is that single game ticket sales are such a small percentage of game attendance that it really doesn't impact their pocketbook significantly. They'll draft a 1st round QB and sell season tickets on his back next year to bolster attendance. They don't care if you don't attend after you've already paid cash for the tickets. They got their money. It's a cycle. Do just enough in the offseason to pique the interest of season ticket holders again.

I think that element is what fans are truly emotionally attached to anyway. They think that if they stop going the tailgates would end and that part of being a fan would die. I am not sure who said just because we fill the parking lot we have to fill the stadium.

I think it would be a huge indictment to show a stadium full of cars in the pregame only to have everyone leave or not show up in their seats for the game.

Could Chiefs fans be disciplined and united enough to organize and orchestrate a 'sit out'????

Right, and not renewing will work for the pocket book next year.

Breaking a cycle requires actions different than those that created the cycle. They could be the only team in the league that sells out the parking lot but have any empty stadium. :D

Whitlock is the effin man

Perhaps we need a game day blockade of every stadium entrance. Kinda the camerohead version of a 60's hippie sit in.
