Anyone ever look at the Chiefs Concerns website?
 

Normally these user-submitted websites suck ass and are full of true fans.

This one isn't half bad though. At the very least they are active on Facebook and post regularly with actual new updates and interviews.

Thoughts?

They're doing pretty good work. Very homeristic though.

Isn't every NFL website homeristic? I mean if you think about it, you want the website to grow and most of the fans of the Chiefs buy into that.

Kinda hard to grow a business when you think it sucks.

I followed them for a while until some broad went off on me because she thought I was attacking her. I told her that if she thought that was an attack, she was going to be really upset when I actually did so. I left. No sense pissing people off needlessly.

Does their really need to be another outlet for Chiefs thoughts or news? What can be posted or said that isn't said in a million places.

Oh I agree. Most of these suck ass and are made by some incestuous meth head from Independence, who probably used an AOL 1500 free hours cd to create their geocities page.

This just happens to look clean and has yet to piss me off, was all I was saying.

Barry's Koolaid >

ROFL I had to go there.

Exactly who i was referencing :thumb:

Cool practice videos.

I'm one of the writers for CC (Dez Bailey). Appreciate the feedback, guys. :-) We do our best

Neg rep.


Nah, just kidding.

are you the same Phobia from Operationsports.com?

:thumb:

Looks decent.

I wasn't.

Joining the Facebook page will be well worth your time.

I follow on fb its a nice break from the usual crapfest. Some writers like susie just write more homer crap but theyve got a few people that go outside the box here and there. The new kid connor seems aight and dez usually hits on more articles than he misses on.

Do they have poop threads?

I submitted a piece to them. It was too long admittedly, but they butchered the hell out of it and made me look illiterate, so I never submitted anything else. It was about the Alex Smith trade, and I pretty much submitted the same thing here, and it was posted on AA. At least there it was in it's entirety. Had they allowed me to edit it myself, I'd probably still be writing for them.

Time To Stick Up For Eric Winston? ROFL

I’m not agreeing with everything Winston said, but most of it I did. I think if more fans would spend less time being offended and listening to what Winston put out there they’d simmer down. It’s like a plate of spaghetti. Fans are throwing every gripe into it, everything bad has to do with everything Winston said.

Fans are lumping EVERY gripe against the Chiefs with what Winston said about Matt Cassel
Fans want Winston fired and gone from the roster. For conduct detrimental to the team. Really?
The same guy that every fan wanted sending tweets, texts and letters to. Now Winston’s a nuisance for sticking up for his quarterback?
I don’t get this. Some of what Winston said put me off because I wasn’t the guy cheering when Cassel got hurt. Now Winston is public enemy no.1 along with Cassel and Scott Pioli.
Speak up for Winston and you might be added to the list.
This conversation has taken a totally different direction than intended by Winston. Somebody needs to eat crow and move on. I emphasize “move on”.
This situation has been fed and has grown to massive proportions when it should have never went there. Eric Winston is a good player and the Chiefs need a good right tackle. Let’s get back to football.
Like I said, Winston was emotional and said things he didn’t have time to refine. But take a look of the picture with Cassel laying prone and #74 kneeling next to him. Winston was right there peering down at his QB while hearing what he felt was fans cheering Cassel being down. A guy Winston should have protected.
I’m sure that ate at Winston into the locker room.
Being a military guy it’s all about the person next to you. Somebody comes after him he’s coming for you. That’s the code and while not soldiers football players do play a very physical and dangerous game. Football players stick up for each other.
Cassel’s not good, my opinion, many Chief fans know that. But like an onion let’s peel back the layers.
Separate Cassel the football player from Cassel the person.
Give Winston a break! I’m not demanding Winston’s job because he spoke out. It’s all right for fans to speak out, but not cool for Winston the player and as Cassel’s friend to do the same?
This whirlwind has grown legs and is storming Arrowhead like a big monster. There’s a lot of white noise and it’s taking away from the real issues. Problems that need fixed some just tweaked, but this drama is making everything seem catastrophic.
It’s easy to get sucked in. At first I did, but fans need to be rational with this.
I think it’s time for fans to stick up for Eric Winston and dispute the notion that he needs to leave Kansas City.
Two wrongs don’t make a right.
Good day, Chiefs fans!

Good lord, that's bleacherreport.com bad.

Tough crowd

Thanks man. I hate to miss tho lol....Connor has a bright future as a writer

- Dez

Its probably less your miss And more my negativity a sports writer has little choice but to stay up beat and surf the silver lining. But you pieces arent usually full blown homer/true fan porn and thats they way it needs to be. Btw just got an xbox saw your post about live when madden 14 rolls out ill be looking you up.

Is that a sample of a piece from that place?

That's horrible.

And I pretty much agree with what was being said.

Most definitely! Looks like it'll be a good game too

It is indeed.

Hey, my kind of site...

You'll be sorely missed, Lil' Davey.

Smh....

So much honesty?

I know the truth hurts.

That article was pure unadulterated garbage.

I love articles that read like a cross between the Facebook ramblings of a 13 year old, and a good meth-bender from Barry.

They have some good stuff, guys. I enjoy the Facebook updates the most.

Sure, there are some shit ones. But overall it's better than most of the blogs out there.

Opinion is not truth

Did you write the article?

Are you this stupid?

I am giving my opinion.

My truth.

But I am certain that I am not alone in this opinion.

That's gold...pure gold

Never heard of it so, no.

No sir. However, I have a great deal of respect for the guy who did. He puts a ton of work and time into the site as well as the facebook page. He's a really good writer and longtime friend of mine.

No, he's not. Tell him not to quit his day job.

LMAO

That's pretty sharp

You are a ****ing idiot.

I am giving you my opinion, you ****ing idiot.

I am not going to lie to you and tell you that I like that piece of shit.

It's the ****ing truth that my opinion is that he sucks ass as a writer, and that you are a ****ing moron.

**** that was hard to read.

Is the rest of the content as poorly written as the above piece? There is no way I'd stumble through more than two of those grammatical shit storms before writing the whole group off.

This.


That article made me feel as if I'd stumbled across Bleacher Report by mistake. What a disaster.

Whoever decided to name their site chiefconcerns should take a pike covered with broken glass + aids and jam it directly in their ass several times.

God I hate that phrase by now.

:popcorn:

Ouch.

You're awesome

Masterpiece. YOU should be a writer

The site would be 10x better without Susie. Her sunshine and roses blind homerism makes me want to throat punch babies.

Holy crap.... I don't know who peer edits these or even writes this. But man there is so much fail there from a literary perspective. I could only make it about two sentences before I was :banghead:

Information is not knowledge. Knowledge is not wisdom. Wisdom is not truth. Truth is not beauty. Beauty is not love. Love is not music. Music is the best.

Wisdom is from the domain of the Wiz, which is extinct.

Beauty is a French phonetic corruption of a short cloth neck ornament, currently in resurgence.

Marry me

You want to marry ptlyon or Frank Zappa?

Which one drinks dark liquor and makes the best burgers?

That's a good question. I bet the coalition could tell you though and maybe you'll stay there :)

No.
That would be DaKCmanAP, or whatever the hell that dumbass' name is.

I'm just the asshole that tells you the shit you don't want to hear.

U guys are more fun

Lol! Ur alright milkman

If they did this kind of shit once a month, it would be one thing, but lately this is the kind of shit I see on my news feed from them all the time, and it's corny as ****.

That is literally one of the worst things I've ever read in my life. Holy ****, Batman.

So I guess you're not ready to defend it's honor? I'll end up dumping the page, which is always an option, I'm just saying that what started off as a great new Chiefs page, is devolving into a teenager's obsession with a football team.

Sweet God that was horrible.

Lil Concerns-y

see what you have done OP1 kenobi

ROFL WIN.

They're so obsessed with providing content daily to remain relevant, that this is the shit they've resorted too. Nice try, boys. Better luck next time.

You know what they need? Some PREMUIM CONTENT amiright?!

LOL, what I quoted looks like a premium WPI membership.

:facepalm:

As a CC writer, I'd say some of those posts are made because certain types of fans enjoy them. Chiefsplanet is its own breed, and I love that here. Personally I'm not a homeristic type guy. I try to be a realist, and stay away from the goofy stuff, but there's a lot of fans of the CC page who enjoy that corny stuff.

Where we're gonna separate ourselves this season will be in the training camp photography/video department. It'll be worth sticking with for the long haul, just ignore the stuff that doesn't suit you.

Those guys took the WPI concept and went full reerun with it.

It seems to be working for them though, so I'm not gonna hate. Different strokes.

How can you go beyond full-reerun though? Clearly a new descriptive must be created.

Believe it or not at WPI we did have some modicum of criticism. It just got lost in the avalanche of homerism sometimes.

I do remember in 2008, though, I pissed off a ton of people on the forums by predicting a loss almost every week in the weekly game preview article.
