Chiefs The bad publicity is a good thing. Discuss.

Molitoth · 10-07-2012, 06:13 PM

I know some of you will disagree, but this news of how "classless" we were today as a fanbase is hitting all over the national media and I think it WILL BRING CHANGE.

How do think Clark Hunt feels about his Team and city embarrassing him like this on a national level? (Well, he could be watching soccer right now)

Do you think Cassel is going to keep getting put out there? The boo's will continue to rain down and should.

I actually THANK YOU Mr. Crybaby Eric Winston. You just got our cause onto Sportscenter.

It's really sad that it had to come down to this in order for us to get our point across. This isn't Cassel's first year, and we are NOT in a rebuilding year (Mr. Trent Dilfer).
We have dealt with this shit for far too long and it's time to come to an end.

Let's keep up the good work!

FLOP.

Negative publicity is a good thing.

My fear is that the negative publicity of fan insensitivity (I'm not saying it was... just saying that's how it's being publicized) is going to make the fans look unreasonable, instead of making the GM look ridiculous. I hope it doesn't distract from the national story, which is that Cassel is garbage and Pioli is garbage, and we shouldn't feel sorry for either of those guys.

I am worried that the national media will somehow make Cassel look like a martyr to a completely unreasonable fan base.

I thought a bad performance today would open this front office up to a world of scrutiny. I think this was a very convenient distraction for Pioli.

Yes, I care a lot.

Because our GM is so egotistical that he's not going to listen unless the national media presses him on it. I think he believes he's above Mellinger, Whitlock, and Babb. I don't think he cares what those guys say. When you start getting ESPN, NFL Network, etc... calling you out, shit suddenly starts getting real.

Pioli found a convenient distraction that makes the fans look unreasonable, instead of making the front office look incompetent.

Like I said, I thought a really bad performance by Cassel would have forced the national media to really start pushing a QB controversy in KC. Now, it almost feels like the media feels guilty talking badly about Cassel after this display.

Classless fanbase that eventually wins

or

A classy fanbase that takes it up the ass for another 40 years

Choose wisely.

Booing a healthy Cassel gets the point across...

Cheering when a man is down with a head injury is gutless and classless. Yeah, it wasn't too serious of an injury, but that's someone's son, someone's husband, someone's family. That's real life. It means more than football will ever mean.

On the flip side... Today our fan base looked bad, but stuff like this will happen almost anywhere when the morale is at an all time low and you have a large group of angry people in a confined space. Any fan base in that situation would probably make a knee jerk reaction and cheer....it's still not justifiable though.

The Chiefs aren't embarrassed by their continual ineptitude, if this is what it takes, fine.

Molitoth · 10-07-2012, 06:23 PM

If you think about, being labeled a "classless" fanbase is going to hit us hard how?

Is someone going to spank us and take our birthday away? no.

Things will change, we will start winning, and then the fanbase will return to glory like the early 90's and all of this will be forgotten. (or remembered on how badass we were to revoke change)

**notorious** · 10-07-2012, 06:24 PM

We are not classless, btw. We all respect Cassel as a person, but we were all happy to see the change that needed to happen at least a year ago.

Oh I completely understand that... but if you would've just listened to the conversation between Berman, Jackson, and Dilfer... we are a sad classless bunch of people.

**notorious** · 10-07-2012, 06:24 PM

Oh ya, it's easy to be classy when you team is a winner.

BigChiefFan · 10-07-2012, 06:25 PM

The team has sucked ass for long enough. It's about time the fans make a stink about the trash product.
