Ty Law will be a Chief. All that nonsense he was spewing yesterday was to get the deal sealed. He would never talk on a KC station unless it had something behind it. Also on PTI i believe it was, Whitlock spoke to Law yesterday. Im sure Whitlock creamed all over himself in the process as well and off air whispered into Law's ear, " I told them to sign you first not Pat Surtain. I wanted you. Please come to us and I will give you a game used Ball State jersey that me and Jeff George wore while sleeping together."

Can we ban Nick Athan please?

My guess is a majority of their listeners are 810 haters anyway. About the only thing they could do wrong in their eyes is hire Keitzman.

Admittedly the downside is limited, but the upside is HUGE. If, by some miracle, they do nail this you can bet 810 will be scrambling to find a way to claim they knew.

Jets cant get law. They just signed a corner from Dallas and they have to resign this guy below. They are already broke.

By next Friday expect Law to be in Red n Gold.

Contract talks between the Jets and three-time Pro Bowl DE John Abraham can officially resume today as the blackout for negotiations between franchise players and their teams is lifted. The club has placed the franchise tag on Abraham ($6.67 million) but he wants a long-term deal and didn't take part in the team's off-season condition program. Abraham, who spent the off-season working with a personal trainer, may not report to training camp on time. The Jets are balking at giving Abraham a long-term deal because of his injury history. Last season, he missed the final four games of the regular season and two playoff games after suffering a torn lateral collateral ligament in his left knee.

your info consists of cutting and pasting posts from Warpaint...

All she has said on the radio is that Law and the Chiefs are close to a deal, not that they already have a deal in place.

My point is guys like Keitzman, Whitlock, and many of the "journalists" on ESPN etc. say all kinds of stuff every offseason and they aren't half right about any of it. No one ever holds them accountable or questions their credibility because they've forgotten about it.
I'll never forget hearing years ago that Carl Peterson was going to leave the Chiefs and take the Eagles GM job. I don't remember who said it but it was on ESPN or Inside the NFL on HBO. It wasn't even close to the truth and I'm sure the guy who said it is still employed somewhere. I wouldn't have people fired for being wrong about things like that but I would expect them to tone down their sensational reporting after being made a fool of.

According to KFFL:

Jets | Law Must Lower Price?
Fri, 15 Jul 2005 06:37:06 -0700

Updating previous reports, Newsday's Ken Berger reports free agent CB Ty Law (Patriots) must lower his asking price for the New York Jets to give any consideration to signing him, according to a person with knowledge of the situation.

Another example:

Everyone was wrong when they said that USC defensive tackle Manuel Wright would go no later than the third round in Thursday's supplemental draft. Wright, who has tremendous upside, cost the Dolphins a fifth-round pick in the 2006 draft, which could turn out to be a bargain if the kid applies himself and gets into camp right away. The Eagles passed on Wright despite speculation that they were interested.

Most of what passes for journalism about sports is speculation.

Doesn't KC have the most cap room of the remaining interested teams? This is the only reason I think it could still happen. If only 4-5 teams want him, and KC is the team with the most to offer (even if it's not what he wants), wouldn't it make sense that they would be the front runner?

I'm not holding my breath or anything, but it seems as if that would make sense.

Seems to ME that Az-Hakim agreed in principle and actually SIGNED a contract and took off to the BIG EASY.

Law and his agents could be using the CHIEFS yet AGAIN to get the ball rolling for a better deal from another team.

I'll start to cheer when I see it posted on the CHIEFS site and it stays there for more than two days.
