Chiefs Announcement From SaveOurChiefs.com

Marty Mac Ver 2.0 · 12-01-2012, 12:54 PM

SaveOurChiefs.com would like to inform our followers that out of respect to the Chiefs organization, coaches and most importantly the players, we have cancelled the Can Pioli Food Drive and airplane banner for tomorrow. Furthermore, we encourage fans to wear what they feel is appropriate to the game be it black, red, grey or whatever color you want to wear.

We ask that you do not carry any Fire Pioli signs into the stadium and just go to the game and be fan. Cheer for the players. Be respectful of them and what they go through on a day-to-day basis.

We feel that tomorrow's game is neither the proper place nor the proper time to continue these activities but rather tomorrow’s game should be a time for all fans to come together and help this team recover from a great tragedy.

While we are mired in a bad season with bad play and bad management, there are 52 guys on the field that just lost a friend. There are things WAY more important than football. Hug your loved ones and appreciate every breath you take. Life is too precious and way too short.

God Bless Chiefs Nation.

Good call guys

Prayers to the Chiefs family & fans.

This just sucks that this tragedy happened. Good job SOC to back down on this sad day. Nobody wins.

Prayers to Scott Pioli & Romeo Crennel I wouldn't want to be them right now.

Let me know if they don't make it happen I know most of them.

Something Marty posted on the original sticky as well:

"We ask that you do not carry any Fire Pioli signs into the stadium and just go to the game and be fan. Cheer for the players. Be respectful of them and what they go through on a day-to-day basis."

Let's show that Kansas City is a respectable community with heart and good intent.

The right call. Good job.

**Donger** · 12-01-2012, 01:04 PM

The epitome of class. Bravo, gentlemen.

**bevischief** · 12-01-2012, 01:07 PM

Just be fans at this point. This is a shock to all of us.

**Lumpy** · 12-01-2012, 01:10 PM

I applaud the SOC for making the right choice to cancel out of respect for what took place today.

**gblowfish** · 12-01-2012, 01:10 PM

I agree whole heartedly with the OP.

Tomorrow KC's Chiefs fans will be in the national spotlight. Time to do what we've always done, been good fans, support this team, put the season and the BS aside, and show our team that we love them.

I've never been prouder to be a Chiefs fan than when we played the NYG the weekend after 9-11 at Arrowhead. Tomorrow will be another day to show what we are made of.
