Lawgate? Law to be on 810 at 2:30pm today?

810 replayed the interview with Law this morning, and I listened to it on my drive in to work.

Let me preface what I'm about to say with this: I've never thought that the Chiefs were going to have enough coin to get Law in here considering all of their other off-season moves. I waivered for a brief period yesterday, when 610 was reporting that Law and the Chiefs were "close" etc (FWIW, 610 isn't reporting ANYTHING further about Law since he was on 810 yesterday. Normally,if something proves out to have some "legs", they re-hash it every hour on their Sports Updates. They didn't so that yesterday OR this morning).

Having said all that, you can determine absolutely nothing from yesterday's interview. In my opinion, Law was reading from a script given to him by the Poston brothers and basically talked in circles of 15 minutes. Saying that he was being "coy" would be an understatement. In other words, this came off to me as a negotiating ploy. You don't come onto a radio station in a market that you're NOT considering playing in to tell everyone that the Chiefs aren't in the running etc. Again, just my opinion.

What I was able to discern from the interview, is that Law basically came off as a whore. It's not about the team, situation, or winning another ring for him - it's about getting paid. Definitely didn't fit the "profile" from what I heard (not that it should the sole reason we don't bring the guy in)

He's going to go to the highest bidder and I still don't think that's going to be the Chiefs. Anyway, just my $0.02.....
