yeah, I got a text this morning, popped on to ChiefsPlanet...heard the story

and at no point was I sad about Belcher dying (after I heard what had happened)

if you murder someone in cold blood you don't deserve compassion...I do, however, disagree he took the coward's way out. I think if you murder someone and then you want to take justice into your own hands by off'ing yourself...that's fine, that's your right

I feel pretty bad for Crennel and Pioli. And both of them are apparently going to tough it out and do their jobs tomorrow at a game.

That's about it, though. It's upsetting that I woke up this morning with a high opinion of Jovan Belcher and as soon as I opened up my laptop that honor I put to his name instantly vanished. But I'm over it. I never knew the guy outside of some dude running around a field on Sundays.

Developing a deep relationship with an individual over four years only to watch him end his own life after he did an unspeakable act isn't in the job description to earn those millions of dollars

Nevermind watching that 25 yr old kid shoot himself in the head the day before.

Nevermind watching your buddy get shot in combat.

How do you not understand that these things are so very different?!?!?

JoeyChuckles 12-01-2012 11:03 PM

All of us as Chiefs fans only have a few courses of action after the events today.

We can stay the course, keep on complaining about the team, management, ownership. Everything will return to normal over time. Pick up right where we left off in a few days.

We can let this event divide us further, make us more combative, more hostile towards the team and each other. See it as another step down in the death of a franchise.

We can let this event bring us as fans, as a team, and as a city together. To borrow a phrase, we could "Be the change" that we want to see from the organization.

Which option do you think we'll choose?

Exactly. Watching a.murderer shot himself is less traumatizing than losing someone with honor.

Yeah, this is kind of how I feel.

I don't care how much money they're paid. Crennel and Pioli went through hell today. I would expect them to be there tomorrow because the rest of the team will be there, and you want to be part of that. But it's got to be tough.

As for Belcher, I can only shake my head. He was a good story of a small-time free agent who earned his way into a starting job. Now...that reputation is gone. It's easy for us to just see these guys as cartoon characters on our screen, and frankly I kind of like it that way. When real life intrudes it's often for bad reasons.

I think the crowd (what there is of it) will be awesome tomorrow. Going forward... It'll be consistently awesome when the wins start rollin' in.

Still the most passionate fan base in the NFL. We're rabid, give us something to chew on.

For those that do and were planning on going to tomorrow's game, OF COURSE they weren't going to wear black or carry scathing signs. It's common sense. There is no person on planet earth who would deem tomorrow the right time to continue with the anti-Pioli activities.

What does this fat ****er say?

"I expect Kansas City fans to loudly support their hurting team Sunday when the Chiefs host Carolina at Arrowhead Stadium. It should go without saying that I hope there are no airplane flyovers imploring for people to be fired, no fan “blackouts” at the game. The voice of the understandably angry Chiefs fan has been heard and it has been noted. Sunday will be about beginning the healing process and honoring those left behind from this senseless crime. Be a Chiefs fan Sunday. At the core, that’s what you are."

He sounds just like a parent who watched a severe punishment issued on a child and said, "Now, I hope this doesn't happen again, okay?"

**** Williamson.

Agreed with most of this. I live in South Carolina and on my way to work I was just in a Deja Vu kind of daze. Dont even really care win nor lose. Just feel numb and horrible. Im speechless
