Could feel Energy while driving to Arrowhead.
Walking out of the tunnel was awesome. Loved walking into the sea of red. Body won't do it anymore, last year body never felt good....first time since 10 years old that he'd not play organized football. During offseason, he felt he would be able to play 1 more year....during OTAs,felt his body was letting him down and his skills were declining. Became angry that his body was letting him down. Then became fearful.....what am I gonna do. "I'm sorry I didn't address this earlier, but it was very painful and I didn't know how to come to grips with it" Thanks to the fans in NO and KC Chiefs.....Always amazed at the passion of Chiefs fans. Very proud of his career acomplishments.....sad he wasn't able to bring a SB to NO or KC. Likes to thank his teamates and RBs and QBs who made him look better. |

thanked his guards, TEs and FBs who chipped the man that beat him to make him look good.
Thanks to NO and KC ownership.... thanks to family. His father attended every home game of his career....except 1. Thanking his management. Thank you to fans in KC and NO....cannot put into words how much he'll miss hearing us on Sundays. God Bless us every one. |

some guy....Brian Flynn came out before.....made some statements on Roaf's behalf.
1. Willi talked to Trent Green at some time. 2. Will Shields flew to california, spent day, watched Rams game with Roaf and spent the night in his home with his family. Chiefs knew of his intentions....I assume after OTAs began. |

Good luck Roaf. You pushed those legs of yours for years, and played fantastic football when many people were amazed that you could simply walk. No shame in retiring after such a great career. Sorry that we could never bring the Lombardi home for you.

It is good that he had Shields out to his place at least.

Can we make this better for everyone involved?
Why don't we just transplant Black's legs onto Willie body. That would solve everything.... Thanks for the memories Roafie.... Good luck on your retirement.
