It's funny, as I was watching the game yesterday I was talking to a fellow fan, who is very knowledgeable about football and the Chiefs in particular, about the state of the team this year and next. Naturally LBs came up (more than once as Mitchell really pisses him) and I don't remember exactly how we got to this point, but he says "You know, in camp we had this guy named Rich Scanlon...." I just busted out in a big ol' shit eatin' grin.
The guy goes to TC every so he sees the players in action. It would appear dear Richie is slow. That seems to be what is holding him back.
He agreed with my sentiment, FWIW, that Scanlon would not have made the practice squad were it not for injuries.
