Very similar take here, quick flash of the Cassel hit, then the locker room tirade of Winston.

Oh well, not a sole has said anything to me about it. If they would have even paid attention to the news casts, they would have been busting my chops around here.

It really doesn't matter much to anyone but us. You agree? It might help get the heat turned up on the real problem.

Rather, people might do the paper sack on the head bit...oldy but a goodie.

What?

That's just reeruned. Who gives a **** about 'your gear'? The game day experience has already been screwed up by the fact that nobody could give a large rats ass about going inside the stadium.

But that's cool - I guess you need to make sure you wear your DT jersey and funny headdress. Gotta keep that game day experience alive!

I'm just saying, if people are going to waste their time tailgaiting and paying to park and all that shit, they are going to wear their red.

I wear a hat and a jersey, so I guess I don't "Gear Up" but I always wear my red.

Let's face it, the game day experience IS the tailgate. The game not so much. I'm just telling you that people WON'T do it. LIke it or not.

And I'm not reeruned. So blow it out your ass.

When the fans feel like the arrogant GM is running the team into the ground because he won't admit he made a gigantic mistake in Cassel, and local media is easy enough to ignore by the aloof owner, then yes – national publicity is good publicity.

Why would they want to defend such sickening people? Just buy your tickets, pay your parking, and shut the **** up.

Kansas City media takes issue with Eric Winston’s rant
Posted by Mike Florio on October 9, 2012, 1:44 PM EDT


A day after Chiefs right tackle Eric Winston should have gotten a paycheck from ESPN for all the time his face and voice went out over its airwaves, folks in Kansas City are pushing back against the notion that fans cheered the head injury suffered by quarterback Matt Cassel.

KCTV5 has raw video and audio of the play and its aftermath. And while the article at KCTV5.com suggests that Winston’s perception of cheering was inaccurate, the video and audio are at best inconclusive.

First, there are several points where the tape skips ahead, making it less than a comprehensive picture of the events that transpired after Cassel sustained a concussion. Second, the background noise when Cassel is laying on the ground seems much louder than “silence or close thereto,” which would have been the preferred setting under the circumstances. Third, it’s hard to see what the fans in the stands are actually doing while Cassel is on the ground receiving attention from the trainers, since the camera focuses mainly on the field.

Fourth, and perhaps most importantly, it sounds like there’s a delayed reaction after running back Jamaal Charles is tackled at the end of a 16-yard catch and run. Arguably, the crowd cheers the play, followed by a brief lull, followed by another cheer when it’s obvious that Cassel, who had completed nine passes and generated three turnovers, is flat on his back.

Some have ridiculously suggested that the fans were merely cheering the arrival of backup quarterback Brady Quinn. (To that we say, “Brady Quinn.”) Others have in slightly less ridiculous fashion justified the indiscretion by explaining that fans were merely venting their frustration with the current regime.

Though Winston may have swept too broadly to include fans who didn’t cheer the injury to Cassel, Winston was a first-hand witness to the incident, and the passion he displayed after the game — speaking from the heart and without notes — shows that he honestly experienced something he genuinely believed to be sickening. No matter how upset the fans are with the current direction of the organization, there’s no excuse for celebrating injury, especially now that we know as much as we do about concussions.

However, I think you guys are missing a larger point – this really helps us. It gets this story out into the national media, and based on our past reputation as the best fans in the country, even usual knee-jerk reaction guys like Mike Wilbon are shaking their heads and saying "what's going on here?"

This is all good for us. I hate to say it, but we should probably think Winston. Without Winston's rant, Whitlock's epic rant doesn't happen and doesn't get read by millions - including most of the national media.

When it comes to the human cigarette, I won't forget anything! That bassturd needs to go. He sucks and has no place in this city anymore. So he'll be kind to just go elsewhere and Olay defenders!

I don't know if this was mentioned yet, but there was a lot of Raven fans at the game too...Possibly cheering.

Ouch, this confirms my fear that the more you fight it the worse it will look. Sounds like he took the time to really dissect the video. If anything he sounds more dug in than before.

Why is this shocking?

Fat Scott is pure evil and his hatred for all things Kansas City knows no limits.

Fat Scott is the most tragic thing to happen to Kansas City since the Hyatt Skywalk Disaster.
