Typical Star Negetivity

gonzo88 · 01-24-2001, 09:39 AM

In todays sports section (in big bold letters) "CHIEFS RAISE TICKET PRICES". Then below that (in small pipsqueak letters) "Elvis goes to pro bowl". This seems to be the typical star approach to the Chiefs, negetive journalism.

What do you expect from a company that PAYS whitlock for his oppinion.

I care a hell of a lot more about money out of my pocket than I do about Elvis going to some meaningless game to back up Gannon.

Like I care what a negetive troll is more interested in.

Brock · 01-24-2001, 09:56 AM

Hey, nice name-calling. At least I know how to spell "negative", loser.

Gonzo,

You remind me of what some people here refer to as the "liberal media" [an idea that I think is basically absurd], but the reason for this is because you only talk about the fan's and media's "negative" views of the team. Didn't you see the article written by Whitlock recently in which he gives Peterson MAJOR props for his offseason moves to date? I would think you would have had premature ejaculation before you were finished with the article.

You sound like Packfan with your constant droning about the negative fans and media.

Get a new act because yours in tired!

The Star pays Joe "PollyAnna" Posnanski also.

Headline sounds pretty positive to me... Increasing prices is a positive change whereas decreasing prices would be a negative change, no? I wonder what the headline "Chiefs DO NOT LOWER ticket prices" would be...

cannibal, your dad whitlock writes ONE possitive article about the Chiefs and this is supposed to meen something? Whitlock gave props because he had to! The Chiefs are doing everything he wanted them to do, so he had to give props or else look like an idiot. As soon as the Chiefs lose their next game, he will be right back off the bandwagon and calling for Vermiels head. packfan may be an idiot, but he is right about all the negative, fair weather, crybaby local Chiefs fans! Especially the fact that they cry and cry about how their team is sooo terrible but keep paying the rising ticket prices year after year.

brock, this isn't a spelling bee. I'm sure you have misspelled a word or two in your posts. Actually, I'm not surprised at all that you know how to spell the word "negative". That word goes with you like stink on s#!t.

Mr. Blond, posnanski doesn't know s#!t about football either.

TFM, how are higher ticket prices a possitive thing?

Cannibal · 01-24-2001, 12:10 PM

Dude, take an English class ASAP!

That's not the first [b]positive[/b] article Whitlock has written. If your going to talk about the Star, you need to mention the good with the bad every now and then. You're starting to sound like a broken record.

MrBlond · 01-24-2001, 12:16 PM

For good, wholesome, positive Chiefs reporting maybe you should read Rufus Dawes exclusively.

gonzo88 · 01-24-2001, 12:18 PM

cannibal, I do take the negative with the positive. If the Chiefs do something bad, I talk about it. If the Chiefs do something good, I talk about it. I don't focus on every negetive thing and blow it up like some so-called Chiefs fans. I also don't focus on every alleged positive thing (Dick Vermiels hiring, for example) I get tired of coming here a defending my Chiefs, however, and getting blasted for it. Then I have to be an @sshole.

Cannibal · 01-24-2001, 12:18 PM

Blond,

Gonzo probably has Dawes articles taped up all over his mom's bathroom walls.

gonzo88 · 01-24-2001, 12:22 PM

Actually, the only journalist that really has a clue to what is going on inside Arrowhead is Bob Gretz. He may be a kiss @ss, but it gets him the inside scoops. You can knock Gretz all you want, but when it come to Chiefs FACTS, he is more acurrate than any other journalist out there.

TeenagerFromMars · 01-24-2001, 12:22 PM

Just wordplay and math...

New Price - Old Price = Change in Price

If New Price is > Old Price then the change is positive
If Old Price is > New Price then the change is negative

Sorry, I'll go back to playing with my calculator now.

Gretz: "Gunther will not be fired."
